Top Southwest Portland Hotel Reviews

The Paramount Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, a solid 3 star hotel as advertised. Staff were all amazing! $10/night credit for their two restaurants was nice too. Issues I had: no on site microwave for reheating your leftovers after a night out. Shower water pressure and temperature were not great. On the last night of my stay on the 14th floor, I found a trail of ants coming in through a hole in the ground. I told the staff and they immediately put me up in another room, which was much appreciated. On a positive note: location is good for walking, so long as you mind your surroundings (as with any downtown of any city). Again, overall worth it for the price."

Park Lane Suites and Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great place for a one or two night stay in Portland. Very clean rooms, close to the Portland Japanese gardens, walkable to Nobb Hill and many restaurants and cafes. Very friendly staff and they have fresh baked cookies in the morning. They also provide complementary tickets to the Japanese garden."

The Porter Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The location was convenient, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing. Everything from check-in to check-out was smooth and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this hotel and look forward to staying here again!"
