Holiday Inn Portland-By the Bay by IHG

I

Had to stand there for 15 minutes to check in, the manager was busy doing something else but standing right there. I requested a wake up call and it did not happen.

Very clean and updated hotel. We had a beautiful view of the bay on the 9th floor. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Richard, specifically, gave us all of our details and answered questions about the area. The breakfast was a bit disappointing and haphazard on the first day. The staff seemed blindsided by a large local event. We had the package with the buffet so that was a bummer. This hotel is in an excellent location. Walking distance to Becky's Diner, Victoria Mansion, even the Art Museum. We actually walked all the way down to Lukes Lobster at the pier. They also offer shuttle service around town so you can get dropped off and picked up wherever you need. May have to wait 15 minutes. Overall, this was an excellent experience!

Clean large room. Onsite parking.

Clean, friendly, good breakfast ( but ran out of pancakes), parking lot under construction $20/ day, easy walk to MECCA
