We stayed at The Governor for two nights on the return leg of our tour of Oregon. Extremely comfortable and well appointed. A bit of city noise was evident from the streets, but this is to be expected. Staff was friendly and very helpful. We were lucky and got a special rate because it was the "off season". Normal rates... more

We stayed here for 3 nights for the Portland Marathon after finding a great deal through Expedia and found it to be thoroughly charming. Our room was spacious with a working fireplace and, despite a strange constant whirring noise coming from above, was ideal for pre- and post-race resting. Staff were friendly, the free internet was helpful & the location... more

I drove out to Portland on October 3rd. My daughter was competing in her first marathon and I wanted to be in downtown Portland to see her do it. I googled "free parking downtown Portland hotels" and the first site was one called "Portland Perks". This site offered special deals for participating hotels. The Governor Hotel was one that I... more

My husband and I stayed at The Governor for two nights in Sept. '09 and couldn't have been more pleased. Every gesture, from the valet, to the concierge, to the kind cleaning staff ,and the crew over at Jake's restaurant -- they were all excellent. We loved the appearance of our room, we loved the location of the hotel, and... more

My husband and I got married at The Governor in August and can't say enough about how excellent our event turned out. From the moment we began planning our big day with the hotel staff and catering, it was easy, effortless and we knew they would pull off a great event. The food catered by Jake's was some of the... more

I stayed here for a week on a business trip. The hotel is very well run and service is very good. The room I had was large with a king bed and a decent size bathroom. Everything is clean and there's a big flat screen TV (although I noticed a lack of digital channels?). There's also complementary WiFi in all... more

Thanks to TA we made reservations here for two nights last week. After a week in Oregon, it was our last two nights. What a great place. In all respects a first rate stay. The desk was very friendly...with a map and lots of suggestions. We opted for a suite on their special 2 for 1 deal and it was... more

Over the years, my wife and I have stayed at most of the nicer downtown hotel properties in Portland. This is due, in large part, to using Hotwire for our stays, and pressing the "4 star" button for hotel category. With Hotwire, you never know where you're staying (specifically), until you've made the purchase, and your credit card has been... more

The hotel was nice, quiet and in a good location for seeing downtown Portland. We had a cheaper room and it was small but adequate. The bed was comfortable with higher quality bedding. The attached Jakes restaurant is high prices and the food is not that good. Valet parking is also pricey. Our only problem was that the amount charged... more
