The Francis

The staff were super nice and welcomed us on arrival. Parking was plentiful and next to the building. The room was clean and big for our family. Breakfast was good just wished it was earlier than 9am. Overall very happy with our stay and highly recommend it!

Wonderful old building turned into a boutique hotel. Very comfortable and the location was great. For a longer stay ( we were there 3 nights) more variety at breakfast would be nice but for us it was fine. The restaurant next door was an unexpected bonus ( the food and staff were incredible). On site parking was also a plus.

Location is good. Rooms are nice, modern, very clean. Breakfast was not great and monotonous for a 3 day stay. The staff over communicated in my opinion by text which some people might feel is good, but I found a bit fatiguing.

Clean, good size room It’s tired & service was pretty poor

Very nice historic building. Renewable and comfortable. We didn’t get breakfast because it wasn’t available until after 830 am and we had an earlier flight. Also the coffee service was nice but for those who like cream it was a little lacking as there was none provided. The minibar was fun and unique with great treats and Maine made items. The gym at the sister hotel was fantastic but not available for early morning workout but over all a nice stay. Really ideal for a laidback traveler

Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is just opposite Longfellow and offers a very family like atmosphere. Enjoyed our stay a lot

Charming and spacious! Would love to stay there again.

A small family-owned hotel in an historic building in downtown Portland. Spacious and comfortable rooms, good beds, good AC, parking. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Excellent choice to stay in downtown Portland.

Great location, comfortable bed, charming property, friendly and helpful staff.

Beautiful room, helpful staff, wonderful environment, easy parking. Somewhat of a walk to get to downtown area, but we drive our car.

Superb

Excellent breakfast option for eggs or tasty fresh yogurt. One day out of four they strangely neglected to clean the room, even with a door sign requesting service, but the night front desk person took it upon herself to do so when we noted the problem after returning around dinner time. She’s a gem. Showers were excellent. Rooms were reasonably sized too. Request a third floor if you don’t like the sound of people above your room walking around as the hardwood floors amplify this. Overall, a nice stay and we’d return if we could get a top floor. Ideally room for 301.

Lovely location, great vibes.
