Staying in Portland

Portland sits between the West Hills and the Willamette River, with downtown, the Pearl District and other central districts on the west bank and most residential neighbourhoods on the east. Attractions like the Portland Art Museum and Pioneer Courthouse Square sit in the compact, walkable centre, while the Cascade Mountains and the Pacific coast are both within a short drive. The city is known for food carts, craft breweries and coffee culture, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and local business.

Most hotels on this list have addresses in the downtown core, along Exchange Street, Fore Street, High Street, Spring Street, Congress Street and York Street, putting guests near shopping, restaurants and public transit. Others stand further out: Bowery Beach Road, two island addresses on Chebeague Island and Great Diamond Island, and residential streets such as Waterville Street, Lord Rd, Monument Street and Sheridan St. The mix suits couples on a short break, families wanting space or family rooms, and business travellers who need meeting rooms and a central location.
