Forest Park Guest Houses

Forest park is a 5,100-acre municipal park sitting square in the middle (well, a bit to the left of the middle) of the city of Portland, Oregon. But to call it a municipal park, is like calling the Eiffel Tower an I-beam. The park is essentially a people-friendly urban forest, complete with all the flora and fauna you might expect to find there. There are seventy miles of walking trails, one of them -- the Wildwood Trail is 29 miles long from one end to the other. The park itself is about 8 miles to a side, so there are places at its heart that make you forget you are anywhere near a municipal area.

This shot was taken at about mile 17 of the Wildwood Trail. The blue diamond on the tree in the background is a quarter-mile marker.

As an aside, anyone who watches the popular television series, "Grimm," has undoubtedly heard the name Forest Park in connection with cases throughout the life of the series.

Top Forest Park Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was fantastic "

Holiday Inn Airport - Portland by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A young lady named Remi (sp.?) checked me in on 1.23.2026 and then when I went downstairs a little later there were no guests at the front desk, so we chatted for a while. The check in was flawless and we had a great chat. She is bright, professional and just a great person and the kind of person who well represents the hotel. Please tell her I said hello. My name is Bob Bass."

The Benson Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The building itself was historic and Beautiful. My wife actually had a paranormal experience near the very large mirror at the base of the staircase where she saw flashing light behind it, and there was no explanation offered by the staff, but they did say people have experienced other apparitions around that mirror, which has its own history documented at the hotel. The location was perfect, the room was very nice, the restaurant had excellent food and drinks, highly recommend staying here."
