If you watch Diners Drive in and Dive. Maybe you could find some place s for lunch or Dinner in Portland ME. Food truck part was fun to watch on TV in Portland ME. This hotel is good and food is too.. Clean rooms and easy place to navigate from. Taxi or shuttle to airport or place to visit. Have fun!! Enjoy!!!

Room tip: If you leave something in the room they ship it to you for free!! Just something to keep in mind!

Hotel is conveniently located within a ten minute walk to the main tourist area. Parking is tight but not unusual for parking decks. Price is a little high for what you get, but again paying for the convenience. Rooms are decent and about what you would expect for a HI. Staff is very friendly. If you stay request bayside. Would stay again, good proprty.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased to know you enjoyed your stay. We always try to accommodate our bayside requests, but if that request cannot be fulfilled, be sure to ask for a price on a guaranteed bayview room. The cost is not that much more. We look forward to your return.

We arrived early, but the front desk staff checked us in right away. The lobby is large, light and airy and well kept. We didn't have a room of the bay but were only there for a brief stay. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and the large windows overlooked Portland. The room was up-to-date with new furnishings.
The hotel has a shuttle from the airport and will pick you up anywhere in Portland and bring you back to the hotel if you get tired of walking. The hotel is not on the watr3erfront and up a hill, so the shuttle/pick up service is very convenient.
I would definitely return.

Room tip: I definitely suggest you ask for a room with a view of the bay.

We made last minute reservations here after a horrifying reserved room at another Hotel. We arrived and wow, what a room. They have a huge TV in the room, lots of pillows, clean, with awesome coffee maker. Very clean and modern. The beds were very comfortable. Best nights sleep at any hotel in a long time. The pool is nice but no jacuzzi. They have a gym and a sauna. We ate breakfast in their restaurant, great food and service. Husband went to lounge for drinks and he said great service there.

They have a shuttle service, we parked our car in the garage and left it there during our two day stay. We used the shuttle several times; other times we wanted to just walk and take in all the places to see, eat, and enjoy.You do have to give them a time like if you want to go somewhere. We went to Peaks Island downtown- but we reserved a time the day before. They took us and picked us up (we called them when we arrived and they were like 10min to get to us)...which was fine.

The service was great- and staff all very friendly and professional. There is a children's museum across the street which my son took his daughter too- and said it was really neat.

They only thing I didn't know when I checked in was 10.00 a night for parking in the garage. But the location and shuttle service was well worth it.

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your compliments on our services, staff, food, and room accommodations. I'm sorry the parking charge was not quoted. You might also like to know that our charge is the lowest in downtown Portland. We hope you will make a return visit.

We recently made a trip to coastal Maine and stayed at the Holiday Inn while in Portland. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the room was very clean and comfortable. The hotel was a great location for visiting the harbor by foot. But we did enjoy the courtesy van when too tired to walk back. Would definitely stay here again.
