Top Bug Light Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Portland Downtown/Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location."

Aloft by Marriott Portland Downtown Waterfront ME

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, nice location. Bed was too soft....."

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

8/10 Good

"First, the positives: location is perfect for a Portland visit. Easy walking distance to downtown and the harbor. Not far from the interstate. The staff was courteous and helpful when asked, and the property was clean and felt almost new. The negatives: for nearly mid-four figures a night there need to be more amenities. The in-room coffee was Motel 6 grade, and the breakfast as well. On our last morning, for whatever reason, the breakfast buffet, already rather skimpy, was missing many key items — no yogurt, no fresh fruit — and this not even midway through the service. As far as housekeeping goes, we stayed three nights, were away from the room most of each day, but our room was never made up. We did finally ask for some fresh towels and a resupply of tissues, and we are low-impact guests who really don’t need our bed made every day, but I was surprised that there wasn’t even an effort, or at least advance notice that we’d have to ask for housekeeping despite seeing them active in our corridors each day as we departed. I sensed that either the property was having trouble filling staff positions, or maybe they were being squeezed by their corporate overlords. In sum, for that much money I expected a little more, some extra touches that would elevate the experience beyond the basics."

AC Hotel Portland Downtown/Waterfront, ME

10/10 Excellent

"Only annoying thing was parking…across the street had to park on 6th floor"

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Everything was clean and staff was helpful."

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for walking to everything."

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Super friendly staff. Delicioso breakfast. No comolaints. Would definitely come back"

Inn at St John Portland In-Town

10/10 Excellent

"Very classic inn vibe that was just a short drive away from the city center. Note there is no elevator for those of you with large suitcases and the stairs are a little steep and tight, but we had no issue getting our checked bag up and down from the third floor, and staff offered to help us both times. The shared bathroom was clean and the provided robes were a nice touch! Consider bringing shower shoes or flip flops to make it easier to use. Parking was easy, and if the small lot right next to the building fills up, they have a parking lot just a block away that was just as easy to use. Breakfast was also a nice touch although the area was a little tight. Expect bagels, toast, yogurt, and simpler stuff along those lines."

Hyatt Place Portland Downtown - Old Port Square

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious, nice and clean room with a bed and a couch. Staff were friendly and helpful! The airport shuttle was very convenient and nice"
