From the valet parking to the reception desk, and all staff involved, was an excellent experience. However, the nightmare began once in the room. Found room in excellent condition but lacking hangers; once requested, waited over an hour for requested hangers to arrive. Safe in room, located in closet, was not secured to the closet wall, came loose from it anchor and nearly crushed my foot. Once this situation was reported, took another day to resolve the issue. Hotel failed to clean room, make up beds and provide clean towels, during the attempted repair of the safe. The only saving grace was the action of staff members for the restaurant during breakfast, who provided excellent service - thanks to Amber and Sylvia. I have to credit the Guest Service Manager, who responded immediately to my “Guest Survey” and refunded my entire valet parking cost for my 3 nights’ stay. And, informed me, via email, that this situation will be used as a strong lesson for staff improvements. Willing to return if these issues are resolved.

Very clean hotel and room. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was good. Close to everything for shopping and restaurants. It’s right across the street from the Ferry to Peaks Island, which was worth the time to explore there. (Definitely rent a golf cart to get around the island). Gorgeous sites!

Nice overnight stay. Did not like the $50 they charged when i checked in. 35 a day for parking and 15 credit to use if not you get it back. Have not got it credited back 2 days later. If i wanted a 15 credit i would have asked. Seemed dumb

Nice Hotel at Super Location! Proximity to the Portland waterfront figured heavily in choosing the Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront (long name, that!) for our recent three-night stay. And it worked very well for us. You are right on Portland Harbor. When I opened the curtains the first morning, a cruise ship looked like it was about to sail right into our room! The hotel itself was clean and attractive. There are many restaurants just a few minutes’ walk from the hotel. We had only one meal (breakfast) at the hotel, and it was excellent. The bar area was pleasant and not crazy or noisy. Not a biggie, but our room was not cleaned anytime during our stay. It seems that if you have your ‘Later’ tag on the door in the morning, that’s it, you don’t get a second chance, although I’m sure we could have requested a cleaning. Overall, the Hilton Garden Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront did the trick for us!
