What guests think

At Courtyard by Marriott Portland Downtown/Waterfront, guests consistently praise the convenient Old Port location and friendly staff, while concerns center on pricey valet-only parking, limited on-site dining, and mixed experiences with the pool and other facilities.

Rooms are often comfortable and spacious, though some guests cite noise, HVAC quirks, or disappointing sofa beds and views. Cleanliness and housekeeping are generally solid but inconsistencies appear, including occasional mold, missed service, and one report of a pest. Expect a convenient, modern base with warm service and a few operational trade-offs.

Facilities

Valet-only parking is common and can be expensive, with occasional delays, while the free shuttle earns praise. The gym is well equipped, and the pool is small with maintenance/temperature issues and was out of service during at least one stay.

We loved the hotel. The 24/7 shuttle service was a pleasant luxury on two very cold nights. The woman running valet and the shuttle service has exceptional customer service skills. We really enjoyed our stay.

Room was great and front desk was also great. Need to get an ATM installed instead of sending people to the hotel next door. Condition of pool room needed some work. Pool/water was fine, as were seating and towels, but some signage on the pool with the water depth needed to be cleaned, there is paint peeling on ceiling and walls, and the clock needs batteries as it didn't work. Minor stuff, overall.

Located steps away from the Old Port section of Portland, the hotel is close to many restaurants and breweries. Our room was spacious and bathroom was very clean. Loved the shower, and the air conditioner and heat functioned very well. We traveled with two children (10 & 5) and they really enjoyed the pool, which is located to the side of the elevators in the lobby. Pool was smallish, about 15’x25’, depth going from 3 feet to 5 feet at the far end. Water was pleasantly warm too which was great. Our 2nd floor room was just around the corner from the elevators and the fitness room, which we used too. It comes equipped with two Peleton bikes, three treadmills, three eliptical machines, barbells, and pulls. Area seemed safe, many shops and restaurants nearby and minutes away. I would recommend staying at this hotel. Also, parking is valet only at $35.

This hotel forces you to valet park your vehicle. They had 1 valet on in the morning. Had a 60 minute wait to get vehicle. It was a nightmare every time I wanted to leave and needed vehicle.This hotel is overpriced too.

I chose this hotel because it had an electric car charger. The staff promised to charge my car during the night. Unfortunately they could not figure out how to open the car charge port - it opens inside with a button on the driver's side. We showed them how to do it at 6 AM and got some charge before leaving. However, they did not properly close the charge cover and somehow also they unlatched out hood - maybe while trying to figure out how to open the charging port. As a result of these errors, our hood nearly flew open on the highway and the protective cap over the charging port was nearly broken off. The rest of the staff was friendly and capable. The valet parking staff may need a bit of training around electric car charging.

The staff were very nice. We used the lobby to play games and eat dinner one night. The bar tender was amazing as well. The room were just ok. We had a junior suite and the pull out sofa was not good. No sheets or pillows. The thermostat was in that room and the heat was in the parents bedroom area. One was hot while the other was cold. The bathroom was ok, the shower didn’t have a door closing you in. The pool was not heated. The gym was very nice. I guess I should have done more research before booking.

Well, it would have been nicer if they had free parking. Or at least let us no ahead of time there wasn’t. We didn’t even know how much it was for valet parking until I saw the charge this morning. Also the pool was out of commission so we couldn’t use that.

We booked a room with 2 queens beds thru Expedia , got to the hotel and was told they were full and we would have to sleep in a room with a queen and a pull out couch which was horrible . Old sheets were still in the pull out , rooms weren’t cleaned the next day too . Bathroom had mold . The big plus would be the location which was important for us.

All was fairly good, but I'm pretty sure I did not get the room I paid for. It was incredibly small. My reservation said it was 600 sq ft, but it was definitely less than 400 sq ft. The location of the room was terrible, too. Basically right outside the main elevator. You could hear everything. In the morning it sounded like the people in the next room were in our room with us. It all seemed very clean and modern. I loved the bathroom and the shower was spacious and unique. The artwork around the room also gave it a nice feel. Our window had a view of the building next door and the dumpster, so that aspect was not attractive at all. My suggestion to anyone going is to make sure you get screenshots of your expected room reservation. I felt like I got cheated by the size, location, and view from our room. I specifically chose that room because of the space listed and I didn't get that at all.

All view! (with a parking lot in the way) The check in was simple. Room was clean and exactly as you would expect a Courtyard to look. The location was great. Just a tad off center of the "main drag"... with a view of the harbor over the top of a parking lot. Food was a quick half mile walk. Check in and check out were as expected again, for a courtyard. I'd stay there again.

The hotel is in the convenient location to Old Port and harbor. The hotel is fully upgraded and renovated. Only complaint I have is the surprising additional charge I have to pay. Given the location and the time I stay, I knew the price range. I booked through the app, while paid at the hotel. Where I was charged more than the price quote I received on the app, while unfortunately I didn’t have the original price quote saved and couldn’t find on the app again. So I’m not happy with the pricing, both Hotel.com and the hotel.

Location near the waterfront - not the greatest views (industrial, w/ water in the distance - at least from our room on the third floor). Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. The bed was one of the most comfortable we've ever slept in! Blackout curtains did the job, and I think we had a white noise machine in our room (it was either that or an air purifier due to the recent Canadian fires/smoke), which was a great touch. The staff was super friendly! When our request for additional pillows wasn't fulfilled the first night and we asked again the next morning, they were extremely apologetic and not only ran pillows up to our room immediately, but offered us free drinks from the snack shop. Each morning the restaurant/coffee bar was bustling, and the lovely young lady running it was the epitome of grace under fire. I wish I remembered her name! All in all a great 2-night stay, and we'd surely return if we're ever in Portland again.

The entire team, without exception, was exceptional! We were particularly touched by the bartender who made a late-night bagel for our son when he was hungry. This truly went above and beyond our expectations! We loved being able to walk to all our favorite spots from the hotel - it made our stay even more enjoyable. We're already planning our return because this has become our new favorite hotel in Portland! The family-friendly atmosphere really made a difference for us.
