"Comfortable"

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Location is great and within walking distance of just about everything. They have a great shuttle to and from the airport, which will also take you to places in town, if needed. Great indoor pool, with separate men's and women's saunas! Super nice! Workout room which is very reasonable too. Complimentary coffee and hot tea, with a small sundries room which has snacks, yogurt, and necessities."

Clarion Hotel Portland Airport ME

8/10 Good

"Hot tub was out of working order for my entire stay."

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

10/10 Excellent

"No complaints - friendly staff and good property for a one night stay!"

The Westin Portland Harborview

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent breakfast! Must include if you are able to! We honestly found parking on the street for free each night if you don’t mind hunting for a spot and walking a tad. Worth saving on parking in my opinion."

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."
