Reviews for Portland Harbor Hotel

Review 1:Nothing

Review 2:My stay was well above expectations. If you're looking for a 5-star hotel in Portland, Maine look no further. Everything about my stay was well above expectations. Exceptional staff, comfortable rooms, delicious food.

Review 3:It's pretty hard to not like everything about this place. The staff were so friendly, genuine and helpful. The location is hard to beat and it is absolutely, a quality hotel.

Review 4:When arrived - sign says, "valet parking". We waited a good 5 minutes - a valet finally approaches the car and leaves a luggage cart for me - and walks away - says, "he's busy". I unloaded two small valises from trunk onto cart and went into lobby. I'm 74 years old - I'm in good shape - but the valet shouldn't have been so harried and disrespectful. Also - waited a while to register - the room wasn't ready - this was about 2:15 p.m. The rooms were ready at exactly 4p.m. -- two rooms to be exact.. Ovedrall it was an enjoyable staty - my wife and daughter, son-in-law - and two youngsters. Thank you.

Review 5:Loved the: location; room; lobby; dining area; pool set up; staff, except ... (see "what didn't I like). Overall, a great stay - and I would go back in a minute. Thank you.

Review 6:Furniture was in comfortable. Dinner food selection is very limited.

Review 7:Within walking distance of just about every place we like to go. Very friendly staff.

Review 8:The room was a little small and I was hoping for a tub that would accommodate 2 people. That didn't happen... Also, the waitress during breakfast wasn't very attentive and the water glasses (and water itself) weren't super clean.

Review 9:Very charming little hotel, great location. Has a romantic, boutique feel to it. Staff was very nice and the small restaurant/bar is lovely and tasty. Also the valet personnel were very nice and gave good recommendations as to where to eat. Would definitely come again!

Review 10:Staff doesn't like it if you book online. BTW the rate was only $10 less than published. Because of this they wouldn't entertain a change of room. Also it was expensive for what it was.

Review 11:Location, good gym

Review 12:Wasn't able to find a pair of pants that I had left in the room, despite calling them immediately after checking out to report the matter. I left a generous tip for house keep too which turns out was a mistake. Apparently they were "lost".

Review 13:Location was perfect

Review 14:The air conditioning unit was a bit loud when it went on and off.

Review 15:Loved the old world charm of the hotel. Staff was excellent and breakfast was wonderful.

Review 16:No coffee pots in the room!

Review 17:Great location and friendly/helpful staff. Also liked the fact that there's no carpet in the guest rooms--good for people with allergies.

Review 18:The room we initially were given was much too small, too hot, and couldn't adjust the temperature. We were moved to another room which was a vast improvement and much appreciated.

Review 19:The staff were so very attentive and responded to any issue with patience and kindness. They are what made our stay so pleasant.

Review 20:The room had one small window and very dark. No effort was made to upgrade the room.

Review 21:The location is very good. Other than the front desk, the staff was excellent.

Review 22:The receptionists and waitresses were mostly very young and inexperienced. Telling us they couldn't deliver the NY Times and then seeing it delivered to another guest's room. What's with that?

Review 23:The food in the restaurant was well priced. The valets and maids were very good.

Review 24:The rooms are not identical, but the price doesn't reflect the difference. The manager agreed to adjust the price accordingly . This was fair and appreciated .

Review 25:very good hotel, prime location, and good service.

Review 26:Pricey for location and amenities(similar facilities in Portland at least $100/night less expensive.).daily garage fee excessive given price of room. Filthy carpet in room.Was not told we were on a pet-friendly floor and that previous occupant might have had allergen-rich pet. For this price,at least a basic breakfast should have been included in daily room charge.

Review 27:location,staff friendliness

Review 28:Very friendly staff - felt like we were being welcomed into their home! Always had someone available to answer questions....Location was ideal; we could walk around the city from the hotel, so had no need to use our car!

Review 29:Some guests had a noisy party next door, but the staff dealt with it very well and we were offered compensation for the disturbance!!!!

Review 30:Staff were very friendly and helpful

Review 31:some staff were unprofessional and negatively impacted our experience. we had difficulty sleeping due to noise from a nearby bar. this hotel was not worth the high price. i would have rather stayed at the marriott or hyatt and will stay somewhere else for our next trip to Portland.

Review 32:nice looking place. some of the staff were very nice and attentive. great location.

Review 33:Very "old school" place with ugly fake antiques designed to signify traditional luxury and status. Dark lobby, rooms have ugly old-fashioned furniture and decor.

Review 34:Nice location. Clean, well-located, spacious bathroom.

Review 35:Check-in wasn't as efficient as I'd have expected as we had to wait to be dealt with, for about five minutes which doesn't sound too much but when you've just arrived and have driven for over eight hours and had a dinner appointment in 30 minutes, things were a little stressful.

Review 36:The location was very good and in fact we recognised that it was excellent after spending a few hours in the City.

Review 37:Checked in, inspected the room as I usually do for cleanliness and insects. Found stains on the bed, on the furniture, on the linen and pillows. Also on and around the windows and curtains there were a couple stains and cobwebs. Mold in the shower around the floor, and some sort of markings and scratches on the jacuzzi tub. The laminate wood looking floor was peeling and I tripped and fell over it wearing my sandals. The furniture was very beat up and full of scratches. I took lots of pictures spoke with the manager and checked out immediately, this property was not up to par for what I am used to in accommodations at a facility of this caliper. The manager invited me back another time, however I do not think I will accept. This was my first time at this hotel and I'm sad to say I won't be back. The location is great, but not what I expected for the money. I expected so much more based on the reviews and what people told me of this hotel. Also the hotel charged me over $100 more than my booking.come reservation told me it would be. I expect a full refund from the hotel, this ruined my trip and adventure, I won't lie. I wish this review would let me upload pictures.

Review 38:Nothing.

Review 39:a bit uptight and i honestly can't see why it's so expensive. for these praces, i expect something like a W hotel

Review 40:solid hotel in a good location that takes pets

Review 41:Noisy (faces street of bars and clubs), no pool, walls thin, disingenuous name (not adjacent harbour!), waiting for only one elevator (even bell hops agree this is inadequate)

Review 42:Friendly staff, Parking under hotel

Review 43:Amazing stay for our 22 year anniversary Staff were absolutely excellent! Every single detail was attended to, from the restaurant reservations to the romance package. Superb.

Review 44:The service in the hotel restaurant could be improved. I felt like an after thought 2 out of 3 times I was there.

Review 45:The hotel atmosphere & accomodations were lovely. The outdoor patio was special. Good concierge service. Great location to enjoy Portland.

Review 46:There was literally NOTHING not to like.

Review 47:I chose this hotel based on it's upscale tone combined with a hint of old world charm. Where this hotel is located literally can't be beat, it's steps away from all the cute shops, and a few more from the waterfront. The staff was just the right amount of attentive - sincere without being overbearing.

Review 48:No breakfast with stay but great breakfast cafes in area.

Review 49:Centrally located to basically everything. Beautiful garden and bar area. People were very friendly and willing to answer any questions

Review 50:The air con was troublesome in the room

Review 51:It has a nice feel and ambience compared to say the Hyatt's and Marriotts , it is comfy and cosy the bar / dining area and seating around the fireplace is welcoming after a day of exploring the area around the hotel it is in a superb location.

Review 52:The location was great right in the heart of the town. The employees were nothing shy of awesome. We were able to walk to get anywhere. We brought along our bikes, and found some excellent trails on the backside of the old port. We had a blast.

Review 53:Nothing!

Review 54:One of the best hotel breakfasts I've had served in a lovely garden would be enough to make this hotel a new favorite for me, but it also stands out for its cheerful, helpful staff and convenient location. The room decor is pleasant but not special. The bed was good but not great. Everything was clean and worked as it should. A major plus was that in our room we heard no hallway noise - hotel is solid and quiet.

Review 55:Andrew, the valet zipped us to the Grace Restaurant to eat. Offered to pick back up with the hotel limo... no thanks. So close to walk and see the Old Port area. Neat perk to have and wicked friendly, helpful staff.
