Top Center for Maine History Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean The bed was comfortable. Breakfast okay was good Staff was not very knowledgeable. Would stay there again"

Canopy by Hilton Portland Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, comfortable, friendly staff"

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

8/10 Good

"The hotel is very nice, clean and attractive with lovely areas to sit inside and our. However there’s a $25/day resort fee theta not mentioned when booking or on Hotels.com/Expedia so we were hit with it upon checking in. Since there is no resort like amenities except for bikes to use if/when available it is odd, and the gym was small and typical, same as other hotels include for free. The fee becomes a credit to use toward any food/beverage by noon the next day so we used it for overpriced bottles of water ($6/per!). The restaurant is pricy ans there are so many better choices in town. And the credit can’t be put towards the $40/per day parking. There’s luckily a good amount of street parking in the immediate area."

AC Hotel Portland Downtown/Waterfront, ME

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. The staff was very helpful."

Inn at St John Portland In-Town

10/10 Excellent

"Only drawback is no elevator but we were on 1st floor so we lucked out. Very charming though. Loved it."

Portland Regency Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place to stay! Centrally located! Comfortable for three! Super clean"

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Great view of the waterfront"

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Valet services are a little iffy. You never know where your car is going to be parked, sometimes it is 10 minutes away in a parking garage."

The Weldon Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best accommodation in Portland that we have stayed at—by a wide margin. The building and unit itself are a dream. Spacious, quiet, elevated, fresh, clean, thoughtful touches, quality finishes and materials, comfortable, inviting, secure…I have nothing but praise for this property. My spouse and I waxed lyrical about it for the entire stay, “Oh my goodness, I wish we lived here.”, and “we’re home!”. Of course we were happy to get back to our real home back in Boston after our time at the Weldon came to a close, but it was sincerely a “home away from home” experience top to bottom. Book this place—you’ve found the one."
