West End Hotel Deals
Portland Harbor Hotel
"An attractive city hotel with contemporary rooms and a lux feeling lobby area. Ed and pillow were very good; a/c was robust. Downside: The one working elevator to the guest rooms made transit up and downstairs slow."

Portland Regency Hotel & Spa
"Just okay, guest services staff a bit aloof. Can’t beat the location in the heart of the old port. Comfortable bed. Room service closed too early. Nothing in the minibar fridge. Walls are surprisingly thin. I expected more from the Regency."

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port
"Clean room, nice location. Wish the tv was a smart tv, and found the $25/room sort of annoying since the restaurant on property was understaffed. But overall we enjoyed it."
