The Press Hotel, located on the corner of Exchange and Congress Streets in the Old Port District, features 110 thoughtfully appointed luxury guestrooms, including a Penthouse Suite with rooftop access and 360-degree views of the city; four private function rooms and is home to UNION, its 65-seat restaurant by Head Chef, Christian Bassett. Each guestroom has design inspired by a 1920s writer's office including a vintage-styled journalist desk, playful newsroom references throughout and floor to ceiling marble bathrooms. An iconic front-desk "letterpress art wall" welcomes guests to its front desk and to its Inkwell lobby bar featuring hand crafted cocktails. The hotel also has an Art Gallery featuring local artists works, open to the public, which also includes a two story signature installation piece of vintage typewriters called the SWARM, to depict the chaos of a newsroom.Marriott

Megha, Apr 2025
Pros (+) It was an absolutely beautiful hotel, with the kindest staff I have ever come across. I don’t usually leave reviews but my experience here really made me want to leave one. Stay here if you’re visiting Portland! Nicest staff, beautiful hotel and immaculately clean!
Cons (-) Nothing that I didn’t like.

Sylis, Jan 2025
Pros (+) It was an extremely nice hotel with a friendly staff and a welcoming environment. The beds were super comfortable, the TV was great, and the bathroom was nice as well. The shower was a bit unusual for me since it was on the ceiling, but if that’s your style, it’s a good feature. The water also got really hot, which was a nice touch.
Cons (-) Nothing was wrong with my stay it was a great experience!

Frank, Dec 2024
Pros (+) Great location, staff friendly and accommodating.
Cons (-) The rooms had no sound proofing. The sound of people talking and walking the hotel walkways felt like they could have been in your room. This was our only complain, but, for me it precluded me from giving the hotel the highest rating.

Rich, Nov 2024
Pros (+) Valet service was good, but expensive. Front desk staff nice, and informative. Coffee bar in lobby pretty good. Decor - decent enough for a moderate hotel, kind of low-grade for a better property.
Cons (-) Room was an accessible room - I did not need or request that. Usually that's fine but this room 1) had nearly NO lights - one small ceiling light at door, 2 dim lamps near the desk, and 2 wall lights next to the bed with switches nobody in a wheelchair could have reached. Very dark with all lights on. The bathroom was ok except the curbless shower had only a curtain, close to the "rain" showerhead...
