Top South Portland Historical Society Museum Hotel Reviews

AC Hotel Portland Downtown/Waterfront, ME

10/10 Excellent

"Everything"

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Floors generally not as clean as they could have been. Small trash and recycle cans in the room, but nowhere to be found near the elevator or lobby. Except some small cans in the snack room next to the front desk. The employees were the best part of the stay. Checking in on us by text periodically to see if we needed anything."

Portland Regency Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Great location (near shops, restaurants and bars). The bed was extremely comfortable."

Aloft by Marriott Portland Downtown Waterfront ME

10/10 Excellent

"My son and I love the layout of the room. The beds were big and comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and spacious. The walk in shower was beautiful and easy to use. There are plenty of towels, hairdryer, and space to put our things. We felt safe walking around even at night. It's walking distance to Old Port and many wonderful restaurants. We would stay again on our next visit to Portland, Maine."

The McKernan Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The property was great. The staff was great. The only negative thing I can say is that there is no bar or alcoholic beverages and they do not allow you to bring them into the property since it’s located on a college campus."

Clarion Hotel Portland Airport ME

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a good location, close to everything and even has a gas station right next door, very convenient. The staff are pleasant and helpful. The property outside is well maintained and clean with ample parking. They have breakfast with a sit down service, decent menu, tasty food and fairly large servings. You can pay at the time if service or charge it to your room and the prices are average. The pool area was clean and roomy. The pool and hot tub were clean and comfortable, we enjoyed both very much. The overall cleanliness of the hotel was great, our double room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The only thing I would say is that the hotel needs an update desperately, it is older and it shows but we would definitely stay again. oh and the room rates we're one of the lowest in the area!"

The Westin Portland Harborview

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly welcome staff. Clean room."

Portland Harbor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything from check-in to check-out was wonderful. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The room was nicely decorated, the bed was very comfortable, and the shower pressure was good. There is a "pantry" on each floor with free coffee, tea, pastries, fruit and yogurt in the morning. And in the afternoon they refilled it with cookies and waters. We enjoyed breakfast sandwiches from the restaurant and drinks from the bar. There are plenty of seats in the garden to relax outdoors after a day of sight seeing and shopping. The hotel is in a perfect location right on the corner of two main streets and steps away from shopping, restaurants and the wharf. We had a great experience here and would highly recommend it."

Residence Inn Portland Downtown/Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Good location. Nice breakfast. Very friendly staff."
