Old Port Style Right in the Heart of Things


It's really no surprise that one of America's best cities would house a variety of fine lodging experiences. The West End of Portland is host to several fine bed & breakfasts, and the "Old Port" and Financial District boasts some of the cities most exciting accommodations. I think that one of my favorites to date is the Portland Harbor Hotel. The marketing tagline "Where Luxury Comes to Life" is absolutely no understatement.

With old world inspiration, this gem stands proudly in the heart of the Old Port's shopping and dining districts. The French-inspired rooms offer lucky guests the finest amenities. A stay at the Portland Harbor Hotel is nothing short of fabulous. Wonderful beds adorned with down comforters graced in blue toile, pillow top mattresses, a selection of comfy pillows, and full luxury baths make it hard to leave your room despite the city's beckon call.

Take advantage of Starbucks Coffee in the morning, and enjoy breakfast in the lovely courtyard during the warmer months. In the evenings, be tempted by Eve's At the Garden Restaurant and swanky martini bar. Additional goodies include valet parking, Maine's only certified professional concierge service, laundry service and in-room laptop rental. The area's only four diamond hotel will not disappoint!

My pick at the Portland Harbor Hotel: The Jacuzzi Suite

"The evening turndown service, and chocolate novelty will indulge your senses and put you in a restful, blissful sleep. Complementing the visual experience are our custom-made guest room furnishings including his and her armoires.

Luxury bathrooms are a standard at Portland Harbor Hotel. Granite complements separate enclosed showers and soaking tubs. Enjoy your favorite music over the unique bathroom sound system." ~ Portland Harbor Hotel Website
