About Brand Hotels & Resorts in Maine
Brand name hotels and motels are typically found close to Maine’s major cities of Freeport, Portland, Bangor, and Bar Harbor — off major highways like I-95 and Route 1 near Casco Bay ferries or Portland International Jetport. Others are often located on main streets — such as those in Freeport, Kittery, Kennebunk, and Boothbay Harbor.
You will find chains like Days Inn, Holiday Inn, Marriot, Fairfield Inn, and Residence Inn in these areas. Plus, there’s Hilton and Hyatt on the luxury end, as well as Motel 6, Super 8, and Econo Lodge for affordable lodging in Maine.
Benefits of Staying at a Maine Chain Hotel
One of the benefits of staying at a brand-name hotel is having customary treatment across hotels. You can expect a consistent level of service and a certain room that suits your needs on your Maine vacation.
This is ideal if you travel often for business because you can expect standard policies throughout certain chain hotels. For those traveling often or for work, staying at a brand-name hotel may even feel like a familiar place despite being in different locations.
Loyalty Program
The greatest benefit of staying at a chain hotel is the loyalty program, which allows you to continue to accrue points — even when traveling for pleasure with family — that can be used toward future stays anywhere, including but not limited to Maine.
Many chain hotels in Maine also have airline partners that allow program members to use mileage toward their stays. Additionally, most brand-name hotels offer vacation packages for local attractions and discounts for government employees, AAA/CAA members, AARP members, and senior citizens.
