I would have rated this hotel even higher, but along with many other reviewers the truth about this hotel being noisy is true. I am 8 months pregnant and requested a quiet room months in advance. However, upon check-in they recommended upgraded us to a "river room" in lieu of our "city view" room as a more quiet option. Unfortunately, the road traffic and the train woke me several times a night. The beds were super comfy, the restaurant amazing, the location superb and the service was stellar (except for the persistent housekeeping crew who knocked 3 times in 1.5 hours). All in all for the price it was amazing and would stay again- just not when I am hoping to get a good night's sleep.

The hotel is well located in the downtown Pearl district and is very accessible to Portland’s great public transit. The property is well kept and the staff was helpful and professional. Their food in the H2O Bistro is good and reasonable priced. There are numerous top notch restaurants within walking distance.

We have stayed several times in the past in their standard rooms. They are nice but similar to most higher-end properties.

This visit, we stayed in their Presidential Suite which is their only suite. Located on the 2nd floor, it is very roomy and comfortable. It provides a large bathroom with walk-in shower. It is on par with a Hyatt Grand junior or executive suite. There is no view as it looks over the parking area and neighboring buildings.

The only downside is being adjacent to the conference room. Although reasonable noise suppressed, there was a birthday party for a 2 year old complete with bouncy castle during our stay. Sugar induced, high pitch squeals from a pack of reviling two years were no match for the noise barrier. Unfortunately, the party spilled out to the hallways with parent encouraged toddler races. I am pleased to report that there was no wagering involved.

I would think most conference room functions would be of minimal impact on relaxation in the Suite. The additional expense for the suite would be worth it.

I was in Portland for a conferance and stayed at this hotel. As soon as I checked in, they gave me the key & room number. So I proceeded to the room & opened the door. To my shock, there was someone in the room and a man in the shower. We ran to the front desk to sort this out & all they did was laugh & give me the key to another room (this time empty). No apologies! The whole week I stayed there I was worried someone would walk in on me. This incident has put me off from staying here again.
The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was soft and nice. I also like the view of the park from the room. The hotel is located in a nice area walking distance from most places.

Booked this hotel through Groupon. It was a great stay. Clean, comfy room with a beautiful view of Mt Hood, the river and bike path. Everyone working here was helpful and friendly. Very easy to get to everything we wanted to see. My only complaint were noisy neighbors at 2 am, which is not the hotel's fault, but the rude people staying in the hotel. I would stay here again.
