We had a wonderful stay at the Danforth. Our room was very comfortable and clean. The rooms have been recently renovated. Our bathroom was new and spotless. It is fairly easy walking distance to some good restaurants in Longfellow Square, although we did drive to Old Port for dinners twice (short, easy drive). We had gourmet breakfasts each morning and... More

I just came back from a stay at the Danforth. I recommend it to anyone. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. And the breakfast was excellent. I wish I had some criticism to offer. It could have been a little closer to Portland's attractions. But the short walk or drive is a fair trade off... More

Been here before when it was under different ownership. It's still pleasing. The rooms have all be redone, the living room is very comfortable and airy. A wonderful breakfast. They have a lovely little balcony patio off a small sitting room on the 2nd floor. Suggested improvement - they need to have coffee/tea available in the mornings before 7:30.

My wife and I went here for our anniversary. We could not have been more impressed. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, cozy, and comfortable. It's very close to Old Port, so getting into town is not that difficult. What really impressed us were the open rooms on each for floor where guests could visit.... More

I booked a room for my husband & I at this lovely B&B in Portland ME for a Valentine's Day get away this year (my daughters told me this was very similar to what Meryl Streep did in "Hope Springs"!). I was hoping to dine at the Danforth Restaurant as well but it was closed for repairs. We had a... More

We have spent 5 nights in Danforth ( Deering Oaks and Art's District Rooms - both on 3rd floor) and it was incredible experience. Let's start from the most important - the Stuff of Danforth - Liz, Jen and Aly - you ladies know who you are - so nice, so friendly, so so professional, so helpful, always with the... More

Friends from around the country came to stay at The Danforth to celebrate my birthday weekend. The two days were perfection from start to finish. The rooms are elegant and beautifully appointed. And the mattresses must have pixie dust sprinkled on them; everyone reported the best nights' sleep ever. The staff was attentive, the food divine and afternoon tea/coffee and... More

My husband and I stayed at The Danforth for one night, Saturday, Jan 26, 2013. It was fantastic! Great location, beautiful restored building, very friendly staff, and plenty of privacy. We stayed in the Deering Oaks room, which was just right for us. The hot breakfast on Sunday was excellent too - we were pleasantly surprised to be offerred made-to-order... More

We enjoyed the staff and rooms at the Danforth. Chose not to eat at the restaurant, but it is one of the hot new eateries in town. The Danforth is very elegant, with sitting rooms and a deck. Breakfast very delicious. Our one gripe was that the happy hour was not consistent, and we would have liked some wine and... More
