The Spotlight on West End Inn

A Charming Portland Retreat Just Minutes from the Music

Modern comfort meets historic charm at the West End Inn, an elegant bed and breakfast tucked into Portland's picturesque West End. This intimate property blends boutique hotel touches with a cozy, residential feel—perfect for travelers looking to relax after a high-energy concert night. Located just a short drive from Portland’s top music venues and only 2.5 miles from the airport, it’s a peaceful base with standout service, stylish rooms, and local flavor.

Why Concert-goers love it

With major venues like the Merrill Auditorium and Portland Exposition Building close by, the West End Inn is a prime pick for catching live shows without the downtown noise. Guests appreciate the private check-in and check-out, and the serene atmosphere offers a welcome contrast to the buzz of a concert crowd. The free WiFi and concierge service make it easy to plan your night out, and its location near late-night transport options means you won’t be stranded after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a stylish, shared experience in a quieter neighborhood
  • Solo travelers chasing a dream concert with a peaceful place to wind down
  • Couples looking to turn a live show into a romantic weekend getaway
  • Fans needing a low-key space to recharge after a night of music
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on comfort

Food and Drink Options

Start your day—or recover from a late night—with a continental or full English/Irish breakfast, featuring local specialties and fresh pastries. The on-site restaurant and snack bar have you covered for light bites, while the bar and lounge offer a relaxed space to sip and recap the show. Though not 24/7, room service is available for evening cravings.

Nightlife Options

While the West End Inn itself is more about relaxation than revelry, it’s close to Portland’s downtown nightlife, where you’ll find bars, lounges, and local music joints. After the show, head back to the hotel’s lounge for a nightcap in a quieter setting.

What People Say

Reviewers rave about the attentive staff, beautifully decorated rooms, and the peaceful, walkable neighborhood. Many highlight the delicious breakfast and the personalized touches that make a stay here feel like home. The location is also a major plus for those attending events without wanting to stay in the city center.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a party spot—so if you’re looking for a loud, social lobby scene, you might find it a bit too subdued. Also, while the hotel has great service, its B&B-style size means no fitness center or pool.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a stylish, quiet, and well-located home base in Portland, the West End Inn hits all the right notes.

Very Good - 4.0 out of 5

Great place to stay for...

Liked: Milan is a great host and looked after us very well. We liked the quiet neighborhood, close to a seriously good restaurant (Chaval), a great recommendation from Milan. Easy access to the property with the password.
Disliked: Two things: we were on the third floor which was tough for two old folks with heavy bags and the bed was not great. A new mattress would make a difference.

Everything was wonderful.

Liked: This was one of the best Inn’s we stayed in during our trip. The historic house is beautifully cared for. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Milan, the Innkeeper was absolutely wonderful. The breakfasts were delicious and Milan gave us recommendations on things to do and places to visit. The Inn is located in a beautiful old neighborhood and is in walking distance to many local shops and activities.
Disliked: The only down side to our visit was the weather. Nothing could be done about that. We had quite a bit of rain one day, but Milan was able to give us recommendations on some indoor activities to tide us over until the weather cleared.

Nice but no air con

Liked: Cute inn with super nice staff and great breakfast. Only issue is that there is no air conditioning and our room was uncomfortably hot (over 80 degrees) even though it was end of September
Disliked: No AC! Brutal. Especially for the price.
