Holland Inn

  • Inn Details

    In 1997, the Hulbert's purchased this old house in Bar Harbor, and committed themselves to the hands on restoration and creation of the Inn. The 1895 Holland House is a traditional New England farmhouse B&B, non Victorian, offering nine restored rooms with private baths, A/C, cable tv, WIFI and modern amenities. Located on a quiet side street amidst other B&B's, the inn is a short stroll from the pier and center of town, and only minutes to Acadia National Park. The inn offers an informal atmosphere where warm hospitality and local insight are made to order. Enjoy a full gourmet breakfast on the sun porch. Special diets are welcome. Open May-Oct.

    Our stay at the Holland Inn just made the visit to Maine even better. It is situated just a few blocks from the downtown area but still a peaceful retreat and we loved the simple decor. My boyfriend and I both enjoy staying busy, but couldn't help take a morning to relax and enjoy our private porch and view of the garden. Evin obviously takes great pride in her Inn. Her gardens are beautiful, the Inn is exceptionally clean, and her daily breakfasts were something to look forward to. Evin took time each morning to ask what our plans were for the day and provided us with her abundance of knowledge of Bar Harbor and the surrounding area. We would definitely return and have convinced friends to stay here as well!


    Great location, excellent breakfast

    We enjoyed our stay and the wonderful breakfasts in the sunny front room. Bar Harbour if full of B&B's, but we were happy with our choice and the price. Evin is great about giving advice and suggestions. Staying at Holland Inn was the highlight of our trip.


    Great rooms, great food.

    The room was large, but cozy, the breakfasts were really great, but the access for the disabled was difficult for me. I still enjoyed my stay however.

    Very nice property conviniently located in the town of Bar Harbor. Walking distance to lots of restaurants, bars and shops. The rooms are tastfully decorated, clean and have comfortable beds. The cost is more reasonable than most of the motels around here. This place is a winner. I will be back!
