Top Maine College of Art Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Portland DT/Maine Med

8/10 Good

"So far so good"

Inn at St John Portland In-Town

8/10 Good

"This is an old building with a lot of charm. The room was okay. Very dark and couldn’t open the blinds as it faced the street and we were on the street level. Could have done with better lighting. Also the bed was slightly lower on one side which made it quite uncomfortable. Could be just that bed needs attention otherwise, it was rather charming. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Lots of extras like snacks, coffee, water provided all day. Easy to walk around rather than driving."
