Top Portland Hotel Reviews

Portland Harbor Hotel

Portland Harbor Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"each floor had a pantry where you can make coffee. Although the downstairs coffee in the lobby emptied really fast and they didn’t really refill it very often. There’s only one elevator going up to the fourth floor, at least by the lobby. So sometimes it would get crowded. The hotel is centrally located and very close to everything. I would highly recommend."

The Eastern Promenade provides open space for children to play, and East End Beach offers a convenient spot for a dip in the ocean without needing to drive far.

Couples looking for a relaxing coastal experience will also enjoy the East End. It's a quieter part of the city, superb for leisurely strolls along the promenade or enjoying the sunrise over the bay.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Portland?
The best time to stay in a beach hotel in Portland, Maine, is July and August. These months offer the warmest weather, with average temperatures hovering around a comfortable 22-25°C, providing ideal conditions for enjoying the stunning coastline and refreshing ocean breeze. This period is superb for all sorts of beach activities, from sunbathing on Crescent Beach to exploring the rocky shores of Two Lights State Park.

You'll find the beach hotels are buzzing with activity, offering a vibrant summer atmosphere.

For those seeking a slightly different experience, June presents a fantastic alternative. While the ocean might be a touch cooler, the weather is still pleasantly warm, typically ranging from 18-22°C, making it excellent for coastal walks and exploring the charming seaside towns without the peak summer crowds. In June, you may find better value on hotel rates and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular beachfront establishments, allowing for a more relaxed and perhaps more intimate getaway.
