"Beautiful location only blocks from the water. The rooms were very clean and ask for a view of the water! It has a restaurant and bar. We ate breakfast at the buffet and found it outstanding! The bar is a great place to get a drink and you can order food there! The front desk staff was outstanding and extremely professional."

"I stayed at the Holiday Inn by the Bay for a week during a company convention, and the experience was fantastic. The Grand Ballroom and Casco Bay Hall were stunning and perfectly suited for our event, with excellent layouts and ambiance. The staff were incredibly helpful, and the AV team from Headlight ensured everything ran smoothly. The front desk staff was outstanding and extremely professional."

"Stayed here on a weekend trip to Portland. The free shuttle to and from the airport was awesome, only about a 15 min ride. The front desk staff were very helpful. You can walk to just about anything you want to get to, and we even spontaneously went to a hockey game since the stadium was right across the street. Would definitely stay here again."
