Top Portland Arts District Hotel Reviews

Casco Bay Hotel Portland Airport - Maine Mall, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice and friendly people .highly recommended for anyone looking for an hotel good price"

Portland Harbor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"each floor had a pantry where you can make coffee. Although the downstairs coffee in the lobby emptied really fast and they didn’t really refill it very often. There’s only one elevator going up to the fourth floor, at least by the lobby. So sometimes it would get crowded. The hotel is centrally located and very close to everything. I would highly recommend."

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was clean and updated. All of the staff were very helpful. The breakfast was the best quality and variety I have EVER had. We did not have a chance to use the sauna or pool. I wish every hotel was this wonderful. The elevators weren’t crowded. We had an airport shuttle. Everything was positive."

Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Portland

8/10 Good

"I was there for 2 nights and was told when I checked in housekeeping would not be cleaning my room but if I needed anything just ask. I was fine with that. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and there was a fridge in the room. The shower head was adjustable for different water flows but the pressure made them all seem about the same. The shower covering over the old tub felt weird as there was some give to the floor as you moved around in the shower. The bathroom was clean and they provided facecloths as well as towels. There was a sink in the bathroom as well as one outside the bathroom door. Room had a balcony. I would definitely stay hear again for the combination location, affordability, cleanliness and friendliness of staff."
