Top Southwest Portland 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"

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."
