About the Inn
This lovingly restored West End Inn was designed by John Calvin Stevens and constructed in 1871. The townhouse-style building was originally purchased by Freedom Nash, a local stove dealer, and is rich in original architectural detail. It remained a private residence until 1984 when it was converted to a bed and breakfast. Recently, all 6 of our guest rooms were beautifully updated with all new paint, designer wallpaper, furnishings and bedding.
*please note our 3 story property does not have an elevator
The West End Inn proudly sits within Portland’s prestigious West End, a residential neighborhood renowned for its brick-lined avenues, historic architecture and refined character. Just two blocks from the Inn, the graceful Western Promenade boasts Olmsted-designed walkways and grand western views across Maine to the White Mountains of New Hampshire and beyond.
Your West End Inn Host
Milan Barlov, Innkeeper
Milan has been immersed in the hospitality industry since he was a young boy growing up in Serbia. His parents owned a restaurant and his mom still works today as a chef…and this is where he developed his love for hospitality! He has worked at some of the larger hotels here in Portland, but truly thrives in a smaller setting where he can get to know our guests, cook up some amazing food and personally ensure everyone has exactly what they need while staying with us!
Parking
During the summer months (May - Sept), we can accommodate 2 cars in our driveway. From Oct - April, our outdoor patio disappears and we have room for 3 cars in the driveway! Driveway spots are occupied on a first come/first serve basis. There is also plenty of on-street parking all around our building. During the Oct - April season, there are some on-street parking restrictions which we’ll be sure to share with you on arrival.
