Top South Waterfront Hotel Reviews

Dossier Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was very nice and clean, with espresso pods and a comfortable bed. Skip the restaurant though. The charcuterie board is not like the ones that have become popular in the USA and the meat selections are terrible. One tastes like spam and the salmon is just tiny bits of smoked salmon mixed with cream cheese. The rigatoni was ok but not for what I paid. Waitstaff was very shorthanded. Upon arrival, the valet told me it would take 5 minutes to have my car delivered and it took 15, which made me late. This was at 5 am, which was not a busy time. The man at the desk argued with me about what he thought the valet said even though he wasn't there. The valet getting the car was nice and apologetic. The check-in staff were courteous and pleasant."

Moxy Portland Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, urban hotel with a bar and lobby perfect to hang out in. Walkable to Powell's Books, Whole foods, fun bars, a movie theater and Portland Center Stage theater. Rooms are tiny but efficient, not much storage but they do have a fold-out desk & espresso maker, so that's a win. Helpful young staff at the desk too."

Hyatt Regency Portland at the Oregon Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, efficient and close to convention center. Food and drinks were great. Room was comfortable. Only disappointments: ice machines on only 2 floors of 14 story hotel; no room service; and no real glassware in room. Otherwise delightful stay."
