Top Maine Historical Society Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Jess at the front desk was very helpful and accommodating. Others were as well but I Couldn’t omit this comment."

AC Hotel Portland Downtown/Waterfront, ME

10/10 Excellent

"Very modern and clean room. Some foods at the breakfast could have been warmer (like the spinach/egg tarts), but it was good overall. We would stay here again."

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and beautiful view!"

Portland Harbor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent, well-situated hotel. Front desk personnel were helpful and courteous. Sean and Simone were so kind in finding us the perfect room to suit our needs. Olivia at the bar in the evening was professional; we enjoyed our conversations with her. Great coffee-nook with perfect additions for a continental breakfast. Thanks to all who helped make our stay so enjoyable."

Aloft by Marriott Portland Downtown Waterfront ME

10/10 Excellent

"We definitely come back!"

Canopy by Hilton Portland Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay & great location!"

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

8/10 Good

"Parking on-site $10/day Comfortable room"

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

8/10 Good

"First, the positives: location is perfect for a Portland visit. Easy walking distance to downtown and the harbor. Not far from the interstate. The staff was courteous and helpful when asked, and the property was clean and felt almost new. The negatives: for nearly mid-four figures a night there need to be more amenities. The in-room coffee was Motel 6 grade, and the breakfast as well. On our last morning, for whatever reason, the breakfast buffet, already rather skimpy, was missing many key items — no yogurt, no fresh fruit — and this not even midway through the service. As far as housekeeping goes, we stayed three nights, were away from the room most of each day, but our room was never made up. We did finally ask for some fresh towels and a resupply of tissues, and we are low-impact guests who really don’t need our bed made every day, but I was surprised that there wasn’t even an effort, or at least advance notice that we’d have to ask for housekeeping despite seeing them active in our corridors each day as we departed. I sensed that either the property was having trouble filling staff positions, or maybe they were being squeezed by their corporate overlords. In sum, for that much money I expected a little more, some extra touches that would elevate the experience beyond the basics."

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for walking to everything."
