The Longfellow is named for Portland native Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, whose poems drew inspiration from the wild, untamed beauty of the New England coast. Much like the famed poet’s enduring words, the hotel reflects the location’s rugged charm and extremes of the environment - from cold, blustery winters to sun-soaked summer months. "Often I think of thetown that is seated by the sea."
— From "My Lost Youth," Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
