Honestly for what I paid this hotel was worth it. Breakfast included at restaurant in lobby and was great. Clean and new hotel. Only small complaint I have is the walls are thin and I can hear all the tipsy old people outside my door in the middle of the night.

I was pleasantly surprised by this new hotel. We usually stay at the Marina Hotel &spa on West St but our last stay was disappointing - too noisy, dirty and worn and the restaurant just sad. The Pathmaker is a more adult hotel, very clean and parking on premise. The restaurant is wonderful - a delicious breakfast is included with the stay.

Great location with parking

Check in was very nice. The girl at the front desk was awesome! Parking was right underneath the hotel which made it very nice. I would not give the restaurant five stars for dinner. Menu was OK. Service was just OK. Tiramisu came frozen. Breakfast gets five stars. Breakfast is included with the room and it is a full menu with servers. Very nice!

Very convenient to great restaurants and shopping. Breakfast included is fantastic with many great options. Room unfortunately was very noisy. Noise from street as well as lobby as we had a ground floor room. Would not book this same accommodation again.

Minimalist, Clean, and Friendly

This brand new hotel on the upper Main St. of Bar Harbor is clean as a whistle, comfortable, and minimalist in decor. Vintage photo prints line the halls, as a way of personalizing those spaces. The best part is the staff - warm, friendly, & wanting to keep you happy. Housekeeping can happen daily if you put out the door sign. Summer parking scarcity in Bar Harbor is solved by the Pathmaker’s attached garage underneath the building. Breakfasts are included in the fairly reasonable room rate. The hotel is diagonally across the street from a Hannaford’s supermarket - perfect for stocking up on lunch or hiking snacks. And it’s a 10-minute walk to the center of town, the green, shore path, and the beginning of the low tide path to Bar Island. My feeling is this is not a hotel to linger in; there’s no front porch, balconies, or lobby seating (exception of one easy chair). And my only caveat: If you have sensitivity to road noise, request a room on the back.

It was a few blocks walk from the main streets which was a great location. Staff was exceedingly helpful. Mackenzie spent a great deal of time with us planning our day at Acadia Park. The breakfast frittata was great - had it twice.
