Top Portland Head Light Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

8/10 Good

"Everything was really great besides housekeeping. When we returned to our room the first full day, my friend’s bed was perfectly made, but mine was sill a mess. The second night when we got home, the coffee pods and setups had not been refilled, nor did they remove the empty bar glasses we had brought up with us. The housekeeping team leaves a bit to be desired. Everything else was great!"

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

8/10 Good

"Convenient location and in walking distance to waterfront and restaurants. Was able to park on the street and avoid $45 valet fee. Meters run 9-5. It would have been nice if coffee was made available to guests in the lobby but instead had to purchase it."
