Choosing where to stay in Portland all depends on what you are looking to accomplish while you’re visiting. Staying downtown means being close to award-winning restaurants, beautiful art galleries, and hip shops. Some great downtown options include the AC Hotel Downtown and the Ace Hotel. A stay in the Pearl District will have you near art galleries, high-end shops, and cobblestone streets. Stay at McMenamins Crystal Hotel for a truly unique experience or opt for the Canopy by Hilton for a more modern stay.
