Hampton Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

We love this hotel -- the staff has always been terrific -- and we stay there often when we visit Portland. We were sorry to hear so many of the regulars have left and hope the new manager can find great folks to replace them.

One day I will learn that paying more doesn't mean getting more. For what we paid, we could have stayed twice as long at another Hampton Inn 2 miles away and been just as comfortable. Even the breakfast was the same! Very disappointed.

We traveled to 5 states and had great experiences until we came to this hotel in Portland Maine. The staff at the front desk were rude and uncaring. We were told to not expect a room until 4 pm and not to ask until then. We called at 4 pm and were told the room was not ready. It was an hour later until it was ready. Our room was nice. The exercise room had 2 elliptical bikes and 4 treadmills. 1 stationary bike. The pool was nice. The breakfast staff was extremely nice and very helpful! There is a restaurant attached to the hotel that is nice although crowded. The hotel is in a great location but next time we will probably stay somewhere else.

Enjoyed the city, bay and people of Portland. Really enjoyed seeing Portland Head Lighthouse

For the price of the room, it seems to be a bit of gouging to charge $15 for parking.
