Went to Portland for a short getaway vacation. With one exception, the Hilton Garden was really good. The location is excellent for all the tourist water attractions, the staff was all wonderful (most of all the breakfast crew), the valet parkers were topnotch the front desk staff was extremely helpful, and the spacious room was immaculate. We had a package called "the wicked good deal". The one exception was the shower. We were assigned a room with a walk in shower. I proceeded to twice have trouble taking a shower and instead showered the bathroom floor.

This hotel has the convenience of being along Commerce Street which is directly along the waterfront. There is car valet service available with a good size over-hang just in case of rain or even snow. The attendants are quick and friendly. Checking in was no problem. The clerks were friendly to give us some local advice of restaurants. Our room was a tad outdated but comfortable. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the soft pillows. Our room did overlook a parking garage across the street which became a hang-out for a few homeless persons. The room had a good size TV and a small refrigerator. The bathroom was small but doable. We opted for the parking package. Our total hotel bill was over $1000 for 2 nights. I think Hilton should have thrown in a breakfast for good measure. We will consider going to the Hampton not far away. Across the street is a fine restaurant called “Scales.” The squash side-dish is something we will never forget—do delicious. A popular bakery is open next door to this Hilton. Not far along the Eastern Promenade Trail is good pizza place called Brickyard Hollow Brewing Company. We did take a ride out to see the famous Portland Head Light House. It was a rainy day, but the views along that coast are spectacular. The walk and or train ride along the Eastern Promenade Trail was memorable. We liked going up to the street above and seeing the old-time homes If you found this review to be helpful in any way, please click “Thumbs-up” to let me know.
