Grande Ol' Dame in Portland, Oregon

Portland on the Willamette River
Our family stayed at the Embassy Suites-Downtown in Portland Oregon this past year.

This is a really wonderful city--great places to eat, visit, shop, and grab a cup o' jo.  Our hotel was right in the middle of it. Built in 1912, it has all the inherent charm of that era plus a spa, swimming pool and exercise room.  We stayed in a two room suite with two queen beds in one room and a pull out sofa bed in the small salon.  Our room was  located on a sunny corner of the hotel with views of downtown Portland.  

What I especially liked about this hotel was the location--easy walking distance to China Town and the Pearl district, across the street from Stumptown Coffee shop and a block and a half from VooDoo donuts (you will know you are there when you see the long line coming out the door).  Breakfast at the hotel is complimentary including made-to-order items.  We were able to find a very budget-minded rate through the internet, a great value with a lot of charm.

Happy Travels
