Top Merrill Auditorium Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Portland DT/Maine Med

8/10 Good

"The LaQuinta was nice but I didn't realize there was an additional $10 to park your car there. Seems kinda silly when you are already paying to stay."

Clarion Hotel Portland Airport ME

8/10 Good

"Overall, our 4night stay was acceptable. The shuttle was handy bc the hotel is close to NOTHING. Breakfast (for purchase), was good but not open on Monday & Tuesday. The staff was friendly but offered no suggestions on where to eat close by. Checking out, although it seemed they understood we wanted the bill split between the two of us, after we got home the entire amount showed up again on one card & was nearly impossible to get straightened out."

Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We had a clean room with a great view of the water. Our hotel was centrally located and we were within walking distance of so many great local finds!"

Portland Harbor Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel. Room was comfortable. $35 dollar a day amenity charge that was unexpected-use in restaurant. $45 dollar a day valet parking in attached garage. Elevator slow and needs cleaning. Good location to seafront restaurants."

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was well located, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. However, the bathroom seemed to have a leak, as there were visible water stains on the ceiling. The other downside was the parking. It wasn’t free, and there was no option for self-parking, so you had to use the hotel’s parking service. Other than those issues, we had a pleasant stay and were happy with the overall experience."

The Westin Portland Harborview

10/10 Excellent

"Room and entire property was clean and well maintained. Staff was nice and helpful. There are two choices for parking: you can park in the garage yourself, just give your plate number at the front desk. You can also leave your car for valet parking in front of the hotel. Breakfast was very good. It’s not a continental breakfast, you order from a menu."

The Docent's Collection at 121 Middle Street

10/10 Excellent

"We had two amazing stays at Docent 178 and Docent 121. Beautiful apartments situated in the heart of Old Port, Portland. You are in walking distance to some of the best food found in Maine. The staff were also incredibly helpful and one text message away. Maine in the summer is expensive, but if you are going to spend on hotels anyway, might as well do it with Docent!"

Courtyard Portland Downtown/Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Good location and comfy bed but the bathroom needs a renovation and toiletries- especially for the high price of the room."

Canopy by Hilton Portland Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay - I would recommend this venue - clean rooms and courteous staff!"
