The hotel is lovely and well located. Our room was spacious and quiet, with enough drawer space to unpack our things. There was a place on every floor that had coffee, drinks and fruit. We really enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it to others.

Beautiful, gracious hotel with an excellent, welcoming staff. Our room was spacious, comfortable & clean, with a bottle of wine awaiting us! There was even a note of welcome. We had an outstanding meal downstairs, with a kind, attentive waiter. The pantry near our room was well stocked with all sorts of goodies, including warm pastries in the morning. There were 4 choices of creamer in the refrigerator, and a wide array of coffee pods, tea pods, and a hot chocolate pod. Fruit, and flavored water, as well. As far as we're concerned, this is the place to stay in portland!!

Portland Harbor Hotel contributed to a lovely first impression of Portland, Maine. Excellent location in the Old Port, surrounded by shopping and restaurants just blocks from the water. The hotel is incredibly hospitable. We loved the birthday card and whoopie pies they gifted me for my birthday trip. The $35 daily amenity fee is worth it for use in the hotel bar and the small shop. The open pantry feature on each floor is brilliant - there were fresh fruits, granola bars, bottled drinks, coffee, and treats each day. We loved that the staff checked in via text to see if we needed anything; however, we never did since the hotel had such generous offerings! Our room was excellent. The king bed was very comfortable. We had three windows in our room layout with views from each, and a comfortable living room area that we enjoyed using each night. I hope to visit Portland again and stay here!
