Perfect for a clean budget friendly hotel
Very popular hotel by the number of cars/guests during shoulder season. Everything was clean and in good repair. Offered a grab and go breakfast. Would definitely stay and stay longer at this establishment. .

Anniversary getaway
We booked our trip for our anniversary and decided on the Seasider Motel. We were definitely not disappointed! The staff was friendly, the room was very clean and spacious, and it was a short walk to the downtown area. It was also only about a seven minute drive to the national park. We loved it.

Time Away
Staff were friendly and helpful. Property is older, yet renovations are nice. Cheapest Soda in town and the beverages and snacks are great benefits. Convenient walk to downtime and plenty of parking.

Quiet and Clean
We had a wonderful stay. Hotel staff and manager were friendly and very helpful. Room was very clean and tidy. Microwave and frig worked well. Loved having the balcony to catch the morning sun. Just a short walk from anywhere in town. Highly recommend!

Nice 4 day stay
Great place to stay on a budget. Could park feet from door. Didn’t hear the neighbors. Friendly folks in the lobby. Great recommendations for dinner. Went to the Thirsty Whale twice on a 4 day visit to Bar Harbour. Had plenty of coffee available 24 hrs in lobby but no coffee maker in thr room.
