Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Lloyd District / Lloyd Center
Portland's most underrated hotel — a stylish property adjacent to the Oregon Convention Center with a skyline-view rooftop lounge (Altabira City Tavern), bright Pacific Northwest-themed rooms, and prices 25-35% below comparable downtown options. The MAX light rail at the door connects it to downtown in 8 minutes.
Old Town / Chinatown
Portland's most communal lodging experience — a converted 1881 sailor's boarding house in Old Town with a rooftop deck sauna, co-working lounge, and accommodation ranging from hostel bunks to private rooms with original brick walls. The mix of budget and boutique options under one historic roof is quintessentially Portland.
Downtown / Goose Hollow
A 1912 Portland institution on SW 15th that celebrated its history of Hollywood connections — Marlene Dietrich, Orson Welles, and John Wayne all stayed here — with a Golden Age of Hollywood aesthetic that fills corridors with silver-screen photography and guest rooms with period furnishings. The Driftwood Room cocktail lounge is a genuine Portland institution.
Old Town / Chinatown
The London boutique chain's US flagship brought its genuine-neighborhood-hotel formula to Portland's Old Town — with a lobby designed as a public living room, four distinct restaurants (including Tope for Mexican, and Lovely Rita for a rooftop), and 119 rooms at prices that compete with Portland's best Airbnbs for value.
Downtown
The flagship that launched the global Ace Hotel phenomenon — a converted 1912 labor union building where surplus US Army wool blankets still cover the beds and Stumptown Coffee (which Ace helped popularize nationally) brews downstairs. Deliberately unpretentious in a city that values authenticity above all, the Ace Portland remains a pilgrimage for design-conscious travelers.
Downtown
One of Portland's grandest historic properties — originally the Governor Hotel, built in 1909 with Arts and Crafts murals by Charles Heaney — meticulously restored to showcase its Lewis and Clark exploration theme. The Jake's Famous Crawfish restaurant adjacent is one of Portland's most beloved seafood institutions.
