Top Maine College of Art Hotel Reviews

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, nice spacious 2 queen beds room, friendly helpful staff at frontdesk valet and bar, no complaints."

Portland Regency Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

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

Inn at St John Portland In-Town

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was helpful. Building was very well maintained and unique. There was no elevator and the stairs are steep and hallways were a bit narrow, but I would stay there again. Parking was limited, but found street parking near the hotel. Breakfast was adequate for something quick before heading out."

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Great view of the waterfront"

AC Hotel Portland Downtown/Waterfront, ME

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms, helpful staff; have stayed before and will book again"

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."

Aloft by Marriott Portland Downtown Waterfront ME

10/10 Excellent

"Ideal and comfortable stay for downtown."

Residence Inn by Marriott Portland Downtown/Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Nice location"
