Hampton Inn & Suites Portland-Pearl District

10/10 Excellent

"We always stay here when we visit Portland with our small kids. We love the pool, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the valet parking is convenient and efficient! We enjoy the location as well, an easy walk to Powell’s Books and the cutest little grocery store, World Foods, is right across the street. "
