Top Southwest Portland Hotel Reviews

University Place Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was up to our standards, no complaints."

Courtyard by Marriott Portland City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location, quiet area, lovely and comfortable rooms, but if you are a tea drinker, bring your own tea bags...there was a serious lack of attention to those of us who don't drink coffee! We walked to Powell's, the Portland Art Museum, the local convenience store, the Chinese Garden, and several nearby restaurants. Public transit is also very close by."

Hyatt House Portland/Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to stay in downtown Portland! Safe, walkable to restaurants, shops and the beautiful south waterfront. Valet makes it easy to park and retrieve your car quickly, if you want to adventure further out. The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly, the rooms are modernized and comfortable. If you have kids, this hotel is a great option especially if they like to swim. I think the breakfast bar was lacking a bit and could use some refreshed food options, as well as making sure food stays warm, isn’t overcooked, etc. Trays or another means to carry the food back to room safely would also be a nice bonus! We would definitely stay here again!"

Moxy Portland Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! It was exceptionally clean, and the fun, stylish design made it feel unique and welcoming. The staff was friendly, professional, and always willing to help. A special thank you to the manager, Duncan, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. He is such a kind and thoughtful person, and his genuine hospitality truly stood out. We have absolutely no complaints—everything exceeded our expectations. Our stay was wonderful from start to finish, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommended!"
