The Bar Harbor Inn is an inn in Bar Harbor, Maine. It was built in 1887 and has been an inn since 1950.

The inn has accommodations in the main building,[1] Oceanfront Lodge[2] and The Newport.[3] It has two restaurants: the Reading Room[4] and (in the high season only) the Terrace Grille.[5] A bar, called the Oasis Lounge,[6] is located off of the Reading Room. There is also a spa on site.[8]

History

The property was originally known as the Mount Desert Reading Room when it was built by the men-only, 1874-founded[7] Oasis Club in 1887 to be its new clubhouse.[8] The purpose of the club was to promote literary and social culture. It was designed by William Ralph Emerson.[8]

In 1902, a steel pier was constructed at the shore path in front of the Reading Room to accommodate visitors that wanted to come in from Frenchman Bay.[8]

President William Howard Taft was provided a grand reception at the Reading Room in 1910.[8]

Ladies were permitted into the club for the time in 1921. A restaurant was opened to the public.[8]

In 1922, due to the outbreak of World War I and a resultant decline in membership, the Reading Room was sold to Maine Central Railroad Company. It leased the building to the Bar Harbor Yacht Club. Over the ensuing quarter-century, the building had a number of proprietors.[8]

In 1933, a group of hotel owners formed the Shore Club, which allowed guests at local hotels to use the Reading Room's facilities.[8]

During World War II, the United States Navy leased the building for use as an observation headquarters.[8]

When Bar Harbor was inflicted by the great fires of 1947, the American Red Cross used the building to provide shelter to many who had lost their homes.[8]

Three years later, a group of townspeople joined forces to develop the Hotel Bar Harbor, incorporating the Reading Room but also with an addition of a 40-room wing.[8]

In 1960, a 20-room motel overlooking Frenchman Bay was added to the hotel.[8]

David J. Witham purchased the hotel in 1987 and changed the name to the current Bar Harbor Inn.[8] The following year, he oversaw the addition of the 64-room Oceanfront Lodge to the property.[8] The 20-room motel was relocated to make way for the new construction, but it was torn down in 1992 and replaced with the two-story Newport Building, adding 38 more rooms to the property.[8] The hotel is still owned by his Witham Family Hotels Group, which owns two other hotels in downtown Bar Harbor: the Villager Motel and the Bar Harbor Grand.[9]

In 2006, the Bar Harbor Inn Spa building was erected.[8]

The inn underwent renovations during the winter of 2018 and 2019, including a new infinity-edge swimming pool and a continental-breakfast building.[10]
