Top Portland State University Hotel Reviews

The Paramount Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything and every one was quiet and courteous. The quiet part that I appreciated was that they gave me a lovely nice room in the 11th floor which was extremely quiet"

The Porter Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay with family"

Dossier Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was nice and clean when we arrived, restaurant had great food, amazing location. Staff were generally nice and helpful, except for one weird incident where a guy at the counter told us that the daily $10 food and beverage credit was just for the restaurant and didn’t apply to stuff from the lobby, even though the other staff we talked to before and after clarified that it did. only a couple of things I took issue with: 1) the tv in our room was functionally useless as it had no access to live tv and no way of signing into streaming services 2) the $75 per night incidental hold that was not disclosed anywhere when I booked, would’ve been nice to know of ahead of time as I was using a debit card on a tight budget. otherwise, this is a nice hotel at an amazing location for a decent price, recommend it if you’re planning to do a lot downtown."

Mark Spencer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice place to stay, clean and well kept. Very nice front desk people and a great location. Will definitely stay again. Thanks"

The Clyde Hotel Portland by Kasa Living

10/10 Excellent

"Not a cookie-cutter hotel. It exuded the character of Portland, was in a perfect location for exploring, and the attached cafe was exceptional. I would happily return."

Cambria Hotel Portland - Pearl District

8/10 Good

"The bed was very comfortable and the room overlooked a park in not the best part of town, Pearl District. Our main disappointment was the expense of valet parking due to lack of street-side parking but did find a parking garage in walking distance on our last day in Portland. Breakfast was okay, however our eggs were way under cooked. The staff were very pleasant and as accommodating as they could possibly be. Overall was a nice stay."

University Place Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"A nice hotel with a good location. The grounds were pleasant."

The Hotel Zags Portland

10/10 Excellent

"The outdoor patio area was really nice. I also enjoyed playing the arcade games (free play) with my wife."

Sentinel Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was amazing. Close to a fun wine bar and Jake’s restaurant was the best."
