Blind Tiger Portland - Carleton Street

Exceptional stay at the Blind Tiger. From the moment we arrived, the staff could not do enough for us. They were helpful, pleasant and accommodating. The Inn itself clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the common areas with lots of

I only stayed one night but absolutely loved this hotel. It oozed charm. The little "help-yourself" pantry was a welcome site when we arrived after midnight. And the coffee station was easy to find in the morning before Maggie arrived

This was our first stay at the Blind Tiger. This was a beautifully restored old house; brightly lit, clean, with good electrical and plumbing. The air conditioning functioned well but did make strange noises on occasion. ||We were placed

Our company rented the Carleton Street location to host our annual company holiday party after I had been to their Danforth location when working with a local tourism company. I originally inquired about the location I had seen and this space was recommended to me instead. I was hesitant, as I loved the Danforth house so much but now, to be honest, it was so wonderful that I truly hesitate to recommend it because it feels like a hidden gem that I want to keep to myself. :) The property manager was highly responsive and answered questions very timely and despite several emails, she never made me feel like I was being annoying...haha. The space made me feel like we were having a holiday party in someone's well-decorated, high-end, gorgeous home. It had minimal Christmas decor, so I did bring some more but we actually appreciated that the decor wasn't so over the top that it would prevent flexibility of use of the space. Instead, it had just a tree and mantle decor but already had a "warm" vibe due to the decor. (Also, great for those who don't celebrate Christmas as it's not in your face at all.) It was perfect. The entire space was very clean on arrival. We had full use of the kitchen (Just to give an FYI: As far as I can tell, this is only with the venue rental option, not if renting a room for the night) which made heating up catering items a breeze and there was plenty of room for our 27 guests to play board games and sit and mingle comfortably without being in an overly large space.(Nothing worse than a party that feels lame b/c the space is too large for number of guests.) We didn't stay in the rooms, as most of us live nearby, but if they are as gorgeous as the rest of the home, it would have been a dream to. I personally host a lot of events and am now just dreaming of all of those that I could have at this particular venue. I couldn't recommend them more!!! Safety: In the West End in a very safe part of the city. Walkability: Only about a 5 minute walk to Cross Insurance, Portland Museum of Art, and many restaurants. About 10 minutes to the Old Port and Casco Bay Ferry.
