I am from Maine, lived in Portland for many years and now go back as a tourist. I wanted to check out the hotel myself as I had heard mixed reviews. I knew it would be noisy, since the location of the hotel is very near some of my past noisy, fun haunts. SO knowing to expect noise, I was... more

Stayed at the Portland Harbor Hotel as the first part of our visit to Maine and the USA for two nights. The hotel is in a prim location 1 block from the sea front and port and 2 blocks to the main shopping areas. We arrived late in the evening, from Portland Jetport (taxi journey about $30) around 11pm and... more

We visited Portland in August of 07 and were so happy with this hotel. We got there a little early and they were quick to give us a map of portland and told us how to take the ferry to Peaks Island since it was a beautiful day. The next day it rained and we came in from the rain... more

The floor was a little cold since it was located above the... more

A crane is dropping a big weight on a steel beam next door...every 20 seconds. Needless to day this destroyed any ambiance this hotel may offer...we're going to a Motel 6 on the Interstate today so we can get some rest. Certainly this is temporary but we thought you should know. more

At $285 per night, this is an ordinary hotel with very unsophisticated service. It starts with the valet service, that does not offer to open a door, but is there for a tip - $15 valet charge too. For a hotel that plays fancy, you wouldn't expect the greeting at the desk that my wife and I received, "how are... more
