We had no idea how fabulous our stay was going to be! The loft space was beautifully appointed and so inviting. Full kitchen had amenities you didn't even know you wanted (frozen marble wine bottle holder, deluxe swivel Scrabble game and art books, anyone?). The whole place left you feeling spa-like and city-savvy at the same time. Hannah and Anna were the staff who helped us--they were responsive, courteous, and answered all of our questions before and during our stay. Check-in was super easy. The location was perfect--right in the heart of the Old Port, so we walked to everything. Don't miss this fabulous place!

Unexpectedly found The Docent's Collection on my trip wanting to spend an extra night. I was generously accommodated before my 4 pm check in time as I was already in the area. It is a beautiful loft style apartment/room that is spacious and very clean. Also within walking distance of a lot of the places I wanted to visit. I loved it so much and I would definitely be back soon.

Great little boutique hotel. Walking distance to all the downtown Portland sites and restaurants. Large, modern rooms and very friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again.

The room was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked with a few minor exceptions, namely no cutting boards (small thing). The location is perfect for exploring Old Town, highly recommend. The only improvement I would request would be some small fans in the rooms as the meager HVAC couldn't really circulate the air and it got a bit stale during the night. Very minor comfort issue. We will definitely consider staying with Docent again.

Location is far from attractions. Parking is off site. New but not a great value. Recommend you stay closer to town in Camden where you can walk to shops.
