"We had a wonderful time. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Will definitely stay there in the future."

"We love the pool is super kid friendly and that there is a shallow end for them. Our favorite hotel to go to for family days."

"Great place "

"I turned my jury duty service into a mini vacation by staying at the wonderful Porter hotel, just a block and a half from the courthouse!"

"Fun and lively bar and DJ lounge. Smart and simple clean rooms. Great location! Be prepared to pay for valet."

"Love the vibe of the hotel "

"The property was very close to my old neighborhood it was like being home again. "

"This is hands down my wife and my "go-to" hotel in Portland. We live in Portland, have stayed there well over 4 times. We ABSOLUTELY Love the Suite and it is worth the money. We love the vintage look and feel and the beds are extremely comfortable which is important because my wife has severe chronic back pain. The rooms are not overly fancy and they may be lacking in some of the Millennial technology expectations such as TV Casting, but it has the basics for us 50yr olds! We have stayed in many hotels in downtown Portland and we have not found one that beats the Royal Sonesta for us. It is not the cheapest hotel and parking is stupid expensive; but we feel it is worth it. We intend to continue staying there for StayCations and look forward to our next stay."

"I love historic older buildings! The suite we paid for was more spacious than the photos showed. There were a few things about the cleanliness of the room like there was toothpaste on the wall and mirror from previous guests and also what looked like rubber glue. Also previous guests left sticky pancake syrup on one of the chairs when I sat down. Warm water got it right out of the chair with no staining but my pants were an issue. The towels in the room and the pool had a funky odor and the pool had several bandaids in it. The pool area was beautiful probably spent most of our time there. The breakfast had many hot and cold and hot options! Ate there each morning of our stay. Despite the negatives we'll likely be back due to the staff's over the top service, they were polite, quick, and catered to everything we needed which wasn't necessary but made our stay relaxed and easy!!! Thank you!!"
