This hotel is trying to be more than it is. The whole theme is based on being an old newspaper office and those references are everywhere. Ok but whatever.
It’s way too expensive for the level of comfort or service. The expense is only justified by its location. This is Portland Maine. Not Manhattan. Just cost too much.
The restaurant is odd at best. Again they are trying way too hard. The menu is very limited and the menu is trying to be hip with lots of one word descriptions leaving you wondering just what you are getting. I don’t think many people are there for some high end gastronomic experience. It’s a hotel. They want something to eat after a long day.
The server didn’t seem to know what anything was other than reading back the poorly written menu as it was written standing there like a deer in the headlights. What came was not to order and the portions were not entree size at all. The muscles were a small appetizer size or maybe if this were a multi course dinner it could have been an appetizer course. This was not dinner!! and way to expensive. To top it off they were just ok. Not well cleaned and rather bland.
After a very noisy night with a bathroom door that wouldn’t latch. Worn out furniture. And HVAC that was all or nothing we texted to have the valet get our vehicle to find it had been parked outside over night in an ice storm!! Everything was frozen shut!! I was soooo mad. I never would’ve paid $40 for parking knowing this up front.

Overall, excellent location, everything is walkable and the hotel is classy. Id say the valet is a little steep at $40/night, id expect closer to $25/night given the location. The front desk was incredibly helpful. My few small suggestions for improvement would be with the TV, which could not load netflix of HBO and would have made a big difference in our stay. The other area was with the cleaning crew, they did not replace the glasses or coffee mugs that were very clearly used. Additionally there was a lot of dust build up behind the TV(exploring how to fix the streaming) and you could see it in the vents, not an everyday cleaning area so it's due. Lastly, it's a dog friendly hotel, which we loved but the cleaning crew always gave us dirty looks in the hallway with our dogs, who were not barking and being well behaved. That was unnecessary. Overall it was a good stay with some opportunities for improvement

I have stayed in other Autograph Collection hotels and this one is so fantastic. The location, the amenities, the space. I loved it! The bed is very comfortable and I loved the food at the hotel restaurant, Union.
5.0
Modern and upscale, very artistic decor. Very clean, great valet service. Beautiful bar with a fireplace area. Great to see some live music! Great restaurant. Pretty buildings just outside hotel and quaint shops a short walk. Great restaurants all around, pubs and coffee shops. Probably the best hotel in Portland.

The service at the reception was bad.
They seemed that they do not care about guests at all. The attitude was cold and blunt , simply rude. The stay was great but would not stay ever with this kind of service

the Press Hotel is a wonderful addition to downtown Portland - it's an elevated experience that will remind you of your favorite boutique hotel in New York City. The staff was excellent all around, the restaurant was fantastic, and the location was perfect for exploring the city.

Location is very good, the place looks very nice with well themed decor. Restaurant was very disappointing, we were waiting to be seated for long time, the service was busy talking and ignoring us, ended up good because the restaurants down the street were great. Same with breakfast, weird service and food was average. Valet crew were sweet and helpful, they knew to answer questions that couldn’t be answered by the front desk.

The room I paid for was next to the elevator. Very noisy. Asked to be changed to a similar room, was put in a standard room and was asked to call Expedia for an adjustment. I felt they could have done it themselves since I settled the bill directly with them.
A good hotel but does not reflect the stated rating in your review.

Great location. Nice staff. Comfortable accomodations. It is very close to the State House, which rings bells every hour on the hour throughout the night. If this might bother you, bring earplugs.

We stayed at this hotel for our anniversary and was SO impressed! Check in was a breeze, they had champagne and local chocolates waiting in our room and the bathroom was stunning! We brought our dog and they gave him treats when we walked in. Location was perfect but they have a very high end Range Rover that will drive you downtown and pick you up. The service was outstanding and everyone was so nice - not to mention the drinks and vibe at the bar were awesome. We will definitely be back.
