In the middle of the night when the air stopped working and only heat was coming out of the vent. woke up to 82 degree room and for the rest of... More

This is one of my favorite hotels in Portland and I always look for a room here first. The staff is very professional and attentive. I have to give a special thank you to the Valet staff. After we got to the room, they called to let us know we had forgotten to give them the key fob to lock... More

We had the most amazing room. They upgraded us to a suite. The bathroom was so moderen, the bedroom had a sliding door to separate the sitting area. The carpet was nice to walk on. We had a great view of the city and there was a great big faux fur blanket, it was so cozy, I loved it. Although... More

One of the better Portland downtown hotels, and I’ve stayed in pretty much all of them over the years. [Including, I might add, as a child, this one, which my recollection was then called The Downtowner but as you can see from the postcard pic in this review was at least at one time called the American West and was,...

Gorgeous modern hotel with well appointed rooms, beautiful lobby, helpful staff and concierge. The beds are super comfortable. We also loved the outside gas hotel fire pits that kept us warm and had drinks. The location is excellent close city center, shopping, street car, Starbucks. Nel centro the restaurant is super good as well, especially breakfast.

Attended a conference and this was the overflow hotel. Couldn't have been happier. The room even had a window that could be opened for fresh air! The staff appeared incredibly young but was knowledgeable and nice. It is located right near the free streetcar making it very easy to get around. My room had a mini fridge. With a 7-eleven... More

Stayed here for a conference and had an 'excellent' stay. The staff was helpful, the room was clean and the restaurant was worth a visit. Their outdoor bar/lounge area was a huge plus - particularly since it was sunny and 70 when we were there. I rated this as excellent for the exceptional value this hotel represents. Certainly worth a... More

Had been told good things about the property and would definitely stay here again. Lobby is fantastic and Nel Centro (the restaurant) is very good, as well. Rooms are nice... pretty trendy. There was a bit of noise from outside... nothing other than city sounds, but something to consider if you are a light sleeper. Only real downside is there... More

A nice remodel of a 60's era building gives it a fun, hip feel. Rooms are big and very nice overall. Stay here often, but my last stay had one tending a little shop worn from the renovation some time ago. Still a good choice. Slipping down my favorite list as room was not ready to check in for several... More
