Beautiful inn, Joan and Dan were so kind and hospitable. It's a nice short walk to downtown Bar Harbor. And everything was super smooth while we were there. We especially loved the jacuzzi tub in our room!

The free breakfast is a homemade breakfast by the owner! Local and fresh ingredients. One morning was an omelette, another was blueberry pancakes with Maine blueberries and maple syrup. The owners are happy to suggest ideas for your time in and around Acadia for anything you might want to do.

Perfect location for walking to Main St. and enjoying all of the shops and restaurants. Also, minutes to drive to Acadia and access the beautiful National Park. Apartment with full kitchen (Raven's Nest) was great for preparing a couple of meals. The king size bed was so comfortable and the shower had great pressure. The built-in window seat for two was lovely for relaxing and reading. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

What a beautiful Inn! We stayed in the Yellow Room which was nicely appointed and opened into a charming sitting room.
We enjoyed a delicious breakfast and wonderful advice about sightseeing from our hosts.
The Inn is away from the bustle of downtown, but close enough to walk.
We had a wonderful time and highly recommend a stay at Chiltern Inn.

Lovely overnight stay. Welcomed with wine and cheese. Hosts offered really great recommendations on activities. Location is prime for a scenic walk to town along the ocean! Stayed in Abbott Suite which does not include bfast but was luxurious.

We stayed 4 nights at Chiltern Inn in July. What a gorgeous property! We felt like royalty on vacation. Our room was charming and cozy. All rooms in the house were beautifully decorated with elegant furniture, antiques, and delightful artworks. All amenities were clean and well taken care of. Our hosts, Joan and Dan were very kind and caring- a wonderful hot breakfast was served every morning, a complimentary wine was waiting the guests in afternoon; their knowledge of Bar Harbor and Acadia NP were vast and their enthusiasm for activities contagious. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you very much.

Absolutely beautiful place and the food is delicious, the hosts Dan & Joan are both so sweet and helpful. I noticed the pool also has a lot of floatable rafts and toys so the young ones can have fun as well.

You couldn’t find better hosts than Dan and Joan. The absolutely beautiful house with all the talent and memories hanging on the wall to the authentic period furniture gave the house a warm, friendly and calming atmosphere. Dan is quite the talent on the piano and can sing with the best of them. And waking up to Joan’s delicious and artful breakfast was fantastic.

This was our first time staying in a BnB. I’m just not sure that it’s a good fit for us. The house was lovely and had plenty of amenities.
The bed was not comfortable and we couldn’t get the AC to a comfortable temperature.
We never saw the owners or any staff, not that we were there a lot, but just seemed a little different.
