Hotel & Travel

The 2024 New England Brew Summit will take place at the Holiday Inn by the Bay in the heart of Portland, Maine. Visitors will be able to tour cobblestone streets, visit local craft breweries, and experience Maine’s iconic port city as this hotel is right in the Old Port.

HOTELS:

You can stay right at the venue! We have secured room block at Holiday Inn By the Bay for Wednesday, March 6th (night before) and Thursday March 7th (night of).

The room rate is $165/nt. All subject to availability and a 9% hotel tax will be added. Parking for hotel guests is $10/nt. (see below for more info). There are 3 ways to book and get this rate:

  1. To book directly – click this link: NE Brew Summit 2024 Room Block and select dates between March 6-9, 2024, and leave ‘Group Rate, Travel Agent’ selected from the bottom dropdown.
  2. Or, go to the Holiday Inn by the Bay website, enter the conference dates, then under RATE PREFERENCE select GROUP RATE and enter the code CBS.
  3. Or, call the Holiday Inn by the Bay directly at 207-775-2311 to book a room and mention the Craft Brew Summit discounted rate.

The hotel is within easy walking distance to the Old Port and right ‘in-town’. We do anticipate there will be industry events in and around Portland the night before and night of the Summit.

PARKING:

There is limited parking at the Holiday Inn By the Bay.

Look for the blue and white sign – Holiday Inn Event Parking – which is a multi-level garage *beside* the building. Parking will be discounted to $5 for the day for attendees, CASH ONLY, payment upon entry. There is an ATM in the lobby if need be. **DO NOT enter under the Holiday Inn carport by the lobby entrance – this will lead to a separate lot for hotel guests which is $25/day.**

There is also a public parking garage located very close by at 45 Spring Street, Portland, ME.

A full list of city-owned public parking lots can be found here.
