Submitted by jhartgen@abi.org on

After filing for bankruptcy last year, the owners of the Danforth Inn in Portland have sold the property to a boutique hotel chain for $1.7 million, the Bangor (Maine) Daily News reported. The nine-bedroom luxury inn located in Portland’s West End was sold on Friday to Lark Properties, which operates Lark Hotels, according to a statement from Raymond Brunyanszki and Oscar Veret, who have owned the inn since 2014. The Danforth Inn will be closed for the remainder of January and will reopen Feb. 1, according to a statement from Lark Hotels. During that time, existing Danforth Inn employees can apply to be hired by Lark Hotels. Guests who had reservations for the month of January will either be transferred to the Press Hotel in Portland or can push their stay to a date when the inn has reopened, according to Lark Hotels’ statement.
