Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks

An excellent choice for families, business and leisure travellers, the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks is a well-appointed hotel that provides a comfortable and peaceful stay.

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - Location

The Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks offers outstanding convenience for travellers travelling to or from the airport as it is only a 6-minute drive from Portland International Airport.

As a component of the larger Sable Oaks complex, the hotel is close by:

  • Holiday’s Inn Express & Suites South Portland
  • Holiday’s Inn South Portland

Additionally, within a five-minute drive, you’ll find two more Marriott hotels:

Every 15 minutes, a free shuttle service that offers convenient transportation between the airport and the hotel is available to guests.

While the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks has excellent access to the airport, it’s crucial to remember that if you don’t have a car and want to visit downtown Portland or the city’s attractions, other lodging options may be more convenient.

Indeed, we chose this property because it offered vast and free parking for our stay, which was convenient to explore the region with, at most, a 30-minute ride:

  • Downtown Portland
  • Cape Elizabeth
  • Fort Williams Park
  • Pine Point Beach
  • Old Orchard Beach

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - Booking and Check-in

My reservation at the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks was made on the day before our arrival, with the use of three free nights certificates; two of them were earned my Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card and my Marriott Bonvoy® Business American Express®* Card, and the third one was given after the I completed the requirement for a targeted offer last spring.

Considering the fact that it would have cost us over $1,200 had we paid in cash, it was very worth it to be credit card holders since the value I got outweighed the annual fees paid by a lot.

Furthermore, utilizing my Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card at the restaurant on-site allowed me to earn 5X points, enhancing the rewards for my stay.

We were pleasantly impressed by the calm and quick check-in procedure when we arrived at the hotel in the middle of the afternoon. Even though it was during peak check-in time, there were no lines, and we received our room right away, demonstrating the hotel’s dedication to its visitors’ needs.

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - Standard Guest Room

Our selection was a standard Guest room, 2 Doubles for our family of three at the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks. The room’s cleanliness and adequate size met our needs, and the room was also able to accommodate a pack-and-play park for our toddler. The decor, while not ultramodern, presented a cozy and inviting ambiance.

The beds were cozy, and they came with fluffy pillows and an electrical outlet that was conveniently placed on the side of each bed. A flat-screen smart TV, a mini-fridge, and a coffee maker were included in the room’s amenities.

To meet the needs of different guests, in-room facilities featured a safe, an iron, an ironing board, and a baggage stand.

The bathroom was very clean and modern. Every standard amenity was available, including a bathtub, which is ideal for households with small children.

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - Amenities

The Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks has a fully equipped fitness centre on-site that is open 24/7 and has the usual training gear and weights.

The indoor pool is a welcoming choice for guests to unwind when it’s pouring outside or simply to amuse our little one before bedtime. A lovely patio also gives outdoor activities a sense of leisure.

Additionally, there are many conference rooms and common sitting spaces at the lobby level in addition to an office space.

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - Restaurant

The hotel’s on-site dining options include the City Farmhouse Kitchen & Bar, conveniently located adjacent to the reception. There was also a little market and grab-and-go section for quick bites.

Alternatively, guests can venture out to the many, many, restaurants located within a 10 minutes’ drive, such as:

  • Applebee’s Grill + Bar
  • UNO Pizzeria & Grill
  • McDonald’s
  • Friendly’s
  • IHOP
  • Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

We loved the fact that there were so many different dining options, both in culinary styles and budget. We do not have a high status with Marriott Bonvoy, and eating breakfast in the surrounding area of the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks was very easy.

Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks - General Impression

Our experience at the Sheraton Portland at Sable Oaks was marked by its efficiency and comfort, aligning well with our desire for a relaxed and convenient stay near points of interest in and around Portland. The hotel aptly caters to its purpose as an inviting and accessible accommodation choice if you have a car.

We also enjoyed using the indoor pool very much, which we did every day, as it was great to keep our toddler pleased and exhausted for a good night’s sleep!
