What guests say
9.5 / 10 · Exceptional on Booking.com, from 408 guest reviews
Highbrook Motel earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment across recent reviews, with guests repeatedly singling out the room-delivered breakfast, warm and responsive staff, and a prime location that balances easy access to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park with a quieter, less-crowded setting. Minor gripes are rare but real — a handful of guests noted uneven room layouts (limited natural light, no porch), slightly dated décor in spots, and small practical niggles like fridge placement — none of which deterred anyone from saying they'd return.
