The Society Hotel

Portland|0.36km from Tom McCall Waterfront Park
I originally booked for two nights but I ended up extended for a total of five nights because I enjoyed the accommodations that much. Lobby, check-in, and cafe downstairs were all beautifully designed and welcoming areas to hang out or study. I loved the fireplace and living space. Wifi was great! Staff: Everyone on staff was wonderful and welcoming; however, Candace and Branson were people I had the most contact with and it was always a good time. From Candace always being available to help me with navigating the neighborhood and hotel to Branson giving me tips on Portland, chatting about life and fulfilling my caffeine needs, I loved getting the chance to know them. They definitely sealed me in for additional days and were a big reason I felt so comfortable throughout my stay. The Rooms: My first two days were in a King suite with a private bathroom. I was in the room deigned by Peter. It was comfortable, quiet despite the locals living it up outside, and roomy. The rest of my stay was in a Queen room with shared bathroom. I was concerned about having to share a bathroom but they are large, extremely clean and have comfortable and convenient amenities. I slept so well in every room I booked. There might be something to this no technology in the bedroom ”myth”. I liked the minimalist approach to hotel stays and appreciate the added luxury feel with the bathrobes. Little things like a robe really elevate the overall experience in hotels. Cons: No formal parking but there is plenty of street parking and much of it is free. Private security in the community keep a good watch on vehicles. A con that is not the hotel's fault is the unfortunate state of Old Town and it's displaced and struggling locals. They didn't bother me when I was outside but it was sad to see other human beings in those conditions. Be safe walking around the area as some can be unpredictable or in distress. Like with any city, especially downtown areas, just be aware of your surroundings. Overall, The Society is on my list of Portland favorites and I will be returning for future visits.

The Nines, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Portland
4.3/5101 Reviews
The Nines is a luxurious hotel that met and exceeded my expectations. Location: The Nines is located in Central Portland, near Pioneer Courtyard Square, and is a stone's throw away from many excellent restaurants, shopping, and tourist destinations. Room: The room itself is fairly large and luxurious, with a very new renovation. The two queen beds were very large and the bedding was very comfortable. The washroom is large and has everything that is needed. The ceiling height is very high, so it makes the room feel very spacious. Well done and designed. Common Area: Wow! From the entry of the hotel, to the hallways upstairs, it was surely a journey through excellent design! The lobby is in the center of the hotel, on the eighth floor. The lobby is large and is very well designed, with an atrium/courtyard like style. Service: People were attentive and housekeeping did a good job. Concierge was willing to help and had an excellent attitude. Without any doubt, The Nines is surely Portland's best hotel.
Hilton Portland Downtown
3.9/5118 Reviews
Conveniently located at the heart of Portland. Charges $55 for parking even with hotel reservations. Wi-Fi cost money if you don’t sign up for Hilton honors program, not a problem since phone connection is good in downtown. Bathroom still had stains from prior guests….would not recommend to anyone.
Kex Hotel
4.4/556 Reviews
The first time I lived in the Youth Hostel, his downstairs was a restaurant, which caused him to share the space without a kitchen. It was a pity, but I could ask them for hot water. I lived in a bed of 12 people. When I came, only me and another person were there. So we two lived in a big house, so lucky, The toilet here is also very clean. I slept here for two nights. There is no problem. The parking space nearby is a bit difficult to find. When I get up in the morning, I have coffee, fresh milk and oat milk. The decoration of the whole store is very retro. In the morning, you can go to the restaurant when it is not open.
Canopy by Hilton  Portland - Pearl District
4.5/5104 Reviews
There were some problems with the room that the front desk arranged for check-in... Go downstairs to communicate with the front desk and arrange to change to another adjacent room, which was much better this time. 1. The location of the hotel is slightly away from the shopping mall of Pioneer Square, about 15-20 minutes on foot. 2. The hotel’s breakfast is pure Western style, with real-fire baked freshly made pizza, iron plate of vegetable and egg bread (as shown in the picture), three kinds of juice, three kinds of milk (whole milk-black handle, skim Milk-blue handle, sweet soy milk?-green handle), a variety of fresh fruits, the taste is not bad. Favorite blueberry + plain yogurt. 3. The hotel has its own parking lot with parking service. The charge is quite expensive, 40+ USD per night. The parking space on the road in front of the hotel, once every two hours, costs about four dollars. Take a few more steps and pass two intersections. There is a world food supermarket. There is a small parking lot opposite. You can stay overnight. There is a discount for parking on Friday nights. It costs 8 dollars a night. Change! Tell the important things three times, don't ask how I know...remember to remember! You can also renew during the day, which is very convenient.
The Benson Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton
4.3/598 Reviews
Excellent room, service and beautiful property. The lobby was relaxing to sit by the fire and visit. A couple weddings happened and the photo takes were magical, Clarissa explained the details of the hotel and weddings. The night l valet, Johnny was the absolute best- he took care of my classic Corvette.
Dossier

The location is in the city center, the room is slightly old, the health is OK, the service is welcoming, but there is one piece of facial tissue in the bathroom, the replacement is not timely, the parking is $45 a day, there is a parking lot of $25 nearby, there is luggage, not willing to Ran. 10 minutes walk from Pioneer Square, 10 minutes walk to the top three Western restaurants in Portland, breakfast to line up. I stayed for one night and had no other feelings.
