“Fun stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

I stayed for the night on Friday January 13th for my daughters 11th birthday. Our room was clean and perfect for our needs. My daughter and her friends really enjoyed the indoor outdoor pool! Everyone had so much fun. The front desk person Brian was so good! He was friendly and helpful throughout the night. The pool area was clean and there were plenty of towels available to use. The cookies at the front desk were a hit! Two free breakfasts at the attached restaurant were included with our room rate and it was delicious! We are planning to come back during school vacation week for another night. Thank you everyone for a fun experience!

Room Tip: With kids it was nice that we were near the pool area.

Happy Belated 11th Birthday Wishes to your daughter. A child only turns 11 once and we are honored that your family chose to spend that time with us. Our year round outdoor heated pool is a big hit with everyone who tries it. Breakfast at our attached restaurant is complimentary with qualifying rates. Be sure to ask our front desk for details. Our restaurant also serves dinner from 5PM to 9PM. Our menu right now offers burgers, wraps and hot wings. Once our renovations are complete, we plan to expand our menu.
If you wanted to go off site for dinner, we are just a few minutes away from the mall where many chain restaurants are located. Downtown Portland, which is 10 minutes away, has an exciting selection of restaurants. Everything from seafood, Thai, Mexican, and more a sophisiticated fare is available there.
We are looking forward to your return.

We are delighted that you found your stay at the Best Western Merry Manor Inn. We take pride in our clean rooms and friendly staff. We are conveniently located directly off exit 45 off I95 and exit 2 off of 295. As you noted, we are just a few minutes away from the mall and just 10 minutes away from downtown Portland with its unique and fun independent stores. With school spring vacation coming up, it would be a great time to do some shopping for the warmer weather just around the corner. Hope to see you soon.

“Our favorite Best Western”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

We stayed one night in this property, and want to go back! It's super easy to get to - right off the highway, and minutes from downtown Portland. Our room had a massage chair, which seemed strange at first, but was a really nice amenity. There was also a heated pool that was both indoors and outdoors. You get into the pool inside, and swim right out to the open air. We were there in November, and there was a drizzle of freezing rain - it felt soooo good!

Room Tip: Ask for a massage chair!

Thank you for taking a few moments to let everyone know what a great stay you had at the Best Western Merry Manor Inn. We do have rooms with massage chairs in our King rooms. Just let us know at the time of your reservation and we will do our best to accomodate you. We also have refrigerators and microwaves in many of our rooms, with spares when requested. Our year round outdoor heated pool is unique to the area. Where else in Southern Maine can you swim outside in a snowstorm? We provide our guests with many great amenities including Bath & Bodyworks products, free wi fi access, a computer to use in our lobby, and don't forget our freshly baked cookies in the afternoon. Coffee is always fresh and available 24 hours a day. Thanks again for staying with us and hope you return soon.

“New years eve”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

This was a great property to stay at and use as the 'home base' for the night. The indoor outdoor pool is fantastic as was the hottub. It was new years and everyone wanted to swim so it was crowded, but worth it. The restaurant was in the process of switching hands or some renovations, but the food and service were excellent. It's also attached the the motel. It only cost about $15 plus tip for a cab into the old port. The mall is only about a mile away. Good location. Reasonably priced.

“My second stay, as good as the first”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 December 2011

I visited here looking for a Navy Ship Reunion hotel. I like to start off with the 'down side' so here goes. Damn, there wasn't anything on the down side. Now for the good stuff. I have run a few reunions and all have been at the 'big guys' ie: Hilton, etc and we always had a good time but just good. The MMI is more family oriented and friendly. After a friendly meeting with the manager, Don, I felt this could be the place. Over the next 3 days I went to the front desk and asked where to buy a bathing suite, for driving directions for Bath, where to get a great NE clam chowda, and 'tell me about the local micro breweries'. The front desk staff were absolutely great every time, and the chowda was to die for and I tried 3 brews. I signed the contract. This is definitely the place for me and my group; not to big, not too plain, very friendly, very personal (family oriented) and local.

Room Tip: on 2 visits, 2 floors, 2 wings, no bad rooms
