Just as regal as the White House in our nation’s capital, Portland’s White House Bed and Breakfast is housed in a Greek Revival mansion built in 1910. From the grand entryway to the cozy communal areas, the landscaped gardens to the ornate furnishings, this property is a must-visit if you like the B&B style of travel.

room

The rooms at Portland’s White House Bed and Breakfast are split between The Main House and The Carriage House and feature the perfect blend of old-school charm (like canopy beds and private balconies) and new-world amenities (like flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi).
