Top Bug Light Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Portland Downtown - Old Port Square

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent séjour! Rien de négatif à déclarer."

Hampton Inn Portland Downtown - Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"The water pressure wasn’t the best and the pillows were pretty soft but other than that, it was a nice stay"

Portland Regency Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"The hotel was nice, the staff was friendly, the valet was completely necessary!! The rooms are clean and comfortable, but a little dated in the decor. The morning coffee and tea was a nice touch. Our room didn't have much of a view, but the bathroom was a good size with plenty of towels for our stay and the bed was comfortable. We didn't have any issues when we requested an extra blanket and the valet was always available and didn't take long to get our car. Great location to be able to walk to everything in downtown. Easy check-in check-out experience no issues. Would recommend if you want easy in/out parking with a valet and a very walkable hotel in downtown portland. Biggest pet peeve: tv only has cable option; can't login to streaming services like Netflix/Hulu."

Inn at St John Portland In-Town

8/10 Good

"Room was adequate for one overnight. I understood the room size requirements, but the furniture made the space feel cramped. I was also aware there was no elevator, but that being said, theres not really a space between floors for you to stop and catch your breath on. Also it had a mild musty smell. Breakfast was bare bones but was included so thats fine. Quick 10 minutes from the airport which was nice."

Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Staff in restaurant was topnotch. Friendly, fast, pleasant. Food was ok... not great, not terrible. We only had breakfast. Funny to charge full buffet price for a banana and yogurt.... Coffee was good."

The Press Hotel, Marriott Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Nice modern property in the middle of many shops and restaurants. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Being right in the heart of the city, it is a bit noisy to sleep though. We had breakfast in the restaurant; it was really good. We would stay at this property again."

Cambria Hotel Portland Downtown-Old Port

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot, right in the heart of Portland. Everything is walkable on the peninsula. Room was clean and staff were helpful."

The Docent's Collection at 121 Middle Street

10/10 Excellent
