About The Press Hotel

Magnificently reborn, The Press Hotel is proudly rooted in Portland’s past. The structure we call home was once the Gannett Building, the historic headquarters of the Portland Press Herald—the state’s largest newspaper. While the days of printing presses may be over, we continue to honor our history with thoughtful touches throughout the property. Under new ownership and management by EOS Hospitality, The Press begins its next edition.

Onsite, we offer over 100 guest rooms with varying room types, a hyper-local full-service restaurant - Union, and our lobby cafe and bar - Inkwell, as well as meeting and event spaces ranging in size to accommodate corporate groups and social events.
