The Paramount Hotel

The Paramount Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really good experience."

The Porter Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

The Porter Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"I’ve stayed at this hotel several times while visiting Portland. The property is clean, well-maintained, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. My biggest disappointment is the number of restrictions surrounding the rooftop bar, which was one of the main reasons I chose to stay here. Unfortunately, access and availability seem more limited than expected. The location is also a bit isolated, with relatively few dining and entertainment options within walking distance. If the rooftop bar isn’t a priority for your stay, you may find better value staying closer to the Burnside area, where there’s more to do nearby."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland Downtown

Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland Downtown

8/10 Good

"Confirmed 2 King Suites. We were able to get an early check in for $40+tax/rm. requested rooms nearby which was also confirmed. Valet staff very helpful and happy. Front desk ladies were very nice and informative. Housekeeping delivered amenities in a timely manner. Gentleman serving the pastries at the Mothers’ Bakery was very nice. Hotel was in good condition. The pool in the day time was pretty quiet but the evening was very busy and because it’s indoors the noise was very loud. Very family friendly environment. Even the other guests staying there was nice and courteous. The only things I had an issue with which was small issues, the bath soap bottle was empty upon arrival. The TV controls were not syncing appropriately, like the batteries were dead or something cause I had to press the same button so many times before it did what I was trying to get it to do. We stayed on the 4th floor but the room we had was a view of the interior building and roof. Lastly, the walls are VERY thin. My kids stayed in the room next door, which was not a connecting room, and they could hear our conversation clearly(bedroom to bedroom). Continental breakfast was included from 730-1030am but when I arrived at 830am there was a very long line so I just had coffee and went back to my room, but the eggs, bacon and sausage in someone’s plate looked yummy."

"Really fun hotel in an excellent location. The bar and lobby space are really comfortable to just hang out in and talk with the friendly staff. Don't worry about using valet, you can park on the street as it's free until the morning after 7:00 pm. Insider tip, find a spot before 7:00, use the Kitty parking app to pay and you are good until 8:00 am. You can then renew it in the morning. Highly recommend this hotel."

Hotel Lucia

"The hotel is really nice and the rooms are so clean. The location is amazing. Tri-Met was easy to take every where for public transportation. There are great bars, restaurants, and arcades close by. They have a nice happy hour with free beers & delicious coffee, tea, iced tea & water. Powell’s book store is close by. Cozy, comfy hotel with nice classy style. Loved it"
