We had our wedding at the Press Hotel in 2018 and returned recently to celebrate our anniversary. Everything about this hotel is great! The location, decor, food/drinks. I appreciated the welcoming vibe extended to our dogs. Also appreciated the eco friendly shampoo, etc.

This is a lovely hotel. My husband and I stayed here as part of our honeymoon road trip through New England and had high hope from having read great reviews - we were not disappointed! The staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and friendly, and the hotel has a fun, quirky charm and really leans into the old newspaper printer history in a classy way. The rooms are nicely appointed and the bed was probably the coziest, most comfortable we had on our trip. The lobby is a nice place to sit and people watch, have a drink or play a board game, and the hotel is walking distance to the main street and lots of shops and restaurants. We will definitely stay here again should we ever get back to Portland!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Press. Great location. City location so be prepared for typical city noises- right next store to a fire station. But so much is walkable and the staff/valet are all wonderful. Rooms are small but modern and very clean. Great beds!

The Press Hotel is a lovely, clean boutique conveniently located across from City Hall in Portland. Rooms are well-designed, if a bit small, with excellent beds and a rainfall shower in the bathroom. Well placed near enough to both the Washington Avenue and Munjoy Hill areas, as well as to the Old Port area. Portland has become a bit more worrisome for tourists with the number of unhoused, etc. but the areas around the Press never felt sketchy. Overall, strong recommendation. A few nits that we encountered to keep in mind: *City Hall has a bell tower which rings out every hour, on the hour, with the number of that hour (i.e., midnight gets 12 bell tolls). We asked for a room away from the bell tower and didn't really notice it, but if you are a light sleeper take the time to request a distant room; *TV in room was difficult to operate and Wifi was not strong enough to allow for streaming (fine for other uses); *The door to the lovely rainfall shower doesn't fully seal causing water to seep out on the floor unless careful; *Occasionally calls to the front desk from inside and outside the hotel went unanswered, as there is typically only one person at the desk; *Our in-room fridge was not on when we arrived and we requested service while we were out. We returned to find a cold fridge but the door had been left open. Nothing happened, and the front desk was appalled to hear about this, but not exactly best practices.

This hotel is absolutely not worth the price tag as there are multiple issues. The first being the car service they promise was out of service and when we asked why we had not been notified of this staff replied that "the service had been out for a long time" yet they still advertise it. The bathroom door is see through which is obviously an issue and there is no ramp to get into the hotel so you have to drag your luggage up the steps as no staff offered to assist. A staff member wrote us a sticky note upon check in of "where not to go" because the area around the hotel is so unsafe. The safe is housed in a drawer of the night stand which means anyone can simply pull the drawer out and walk out with it. The water bottles in the room are not free and cost $6 a bottle which is fine except we were told they were free when we called prior to arrival. Lastly, Wifi is not free either and you can only get it if you are a Marriott member. Which again is not mentioned until you arrive. For the price tag this hotel is not worth it and very unfriendly for differently abled folks.

We were not able to take our trip due to Delta airline cancellations. So, we had to cancel our hotel stay. The hotel (The Press-a Marriott property) was not willing to refund our $1600.00. As a Titanium Elite for life Marriott customer, I am disappointed in Marriott and Expedias efforts to obtain refund. Paul Richey (901) 828-1587 1602 Ganton Dr Dexter, MO. 63841

The stay was fine but for the price, it should have been outstanding. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice. But there were things that need improvement-the hairdryer was cheap, the outlets by the bed did not work-so my phone was not charged and ironing board was broken. There were trays and items left in the hallway for an extended time. None of this was a big deal but for a $777/night room charge, things should be great. I did room service for breakfast ($50 for one person) but got a cup of coffee (should have been a pot), no salt/pepper, water or jams. Service was good but didn’t blow me away. It felt like a regular Marriott -but was priced much higher. This place could be special cause the location is good, if they just provided the extra value.

Just spent a week here for our first trip to Maine. The location was amazing as there were dozens of shops and restaurants just outside the front door and within a two to three block radius. Many of the attractions we had planned on visiting were just blocks away and the Casco boat ferry shipyard was less than a ten minute walk. We felt safe in the area and the quality of the area was great. Our room was spacious and comfortable. We declined housekeeping service during our stay but the hallways, lobby and front desk areas were spotless. Having worked in hotels for 35 years I can say this property is exceptional and everyone from the hotel we encountered were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.
