Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was very friendly and room was clean and spacious. Only problem was not having a fan in the bathroom to help with moisture after taking a hot shower. The drain was also incredibly slow in the shower.
Always a great stay at the Sonesta. Downtown, can walk to many shops, restaurants, bars and activities! Also close to trimet routes. Great location for a great price. Garage on-site is appreciated as well.
Loved the style, the king suite complementary upgrade was unexpected but something we realized we needed to blow off steam after a rough couple of work weeks. Front desk was incredibly kind.
I booked a last minute stay here. I was happily surprised with how nice the room was. The design and art was super cute and unique. Everything was very clean. The coffee bar was excellent with real half and half. I had to transition to another hotel (Dossier) for my final night of the trip and felt disappointed that I hadn’t been able to extend my stau at the Royal Sonesta.
Downtown Portland is interesting. The hotel inside was pretty just wish valet greeted you at the front bc it can be a little confusing. But I LOVED the room.
We loved our stay here! The hotel was beautiful, had amazing staff and was located in a very convenient part of Portland! We definitely recommend this hotel, and we’d love to stay here again next time we come to Portland!
Like staying here most times I come to PDX. Centrally located, cool vibe, and a decent gym for a hotel. Really good lobby to hang in if you need time before flights.
Only critique for this visit is we asked for extra towels multiple times on different days, twice we didn't get the towels and a third time we didn't get the number of towels that we asked for.
I booked a corner king and the room was very spacious. The bathroom was excellent - large and well lit with a good shower. The furnishings were a bit worn, but the bed was comfortable. It would have been nice if we could open the windows a bit. All hotel staff members were very helpful and friendly. Our only real complaint was the breakfast buffet minimal choices and poor quality. It’s better to go to one of the many local cafes.
