Top South Waterfront Hotel Reviews

Hotel Eastlund, BW Premier Collection

8/10 Good

"Easy check in with pleasant staff. Hotel restaurant and rooms were very clean and welcoming. "

Holiday Inn Airport - Portland by IHG

6/10 Okay

"1. I booked this Holiday Inn because it had a restaurant; but the restaurant was closed. 2. Was required to make a $50 deposit when I checked in. Will I ever see the refund? 3. Checking in, I verified that breakfast was included in my prepaid bill. Next day at breakfast was told I should have been given a voucher for breakfast. 4. In first even, the second time I went down was informed if I didn’t want to take a shuttle out to a restaurant, there was frozen food in a freezer. Sigh. It all contained meat and I eat only seafood and vegetables. One very nice employee gave me yogurt and a muffin, which helped my tired body get thru the night. Very unusual experience. Appears to be management issues. "

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Portland International Airport, OR

4/10 Poor

"It is an ok hotel, near the airport with not much around it. My stay was not good due to an interaction with a female front desk attendant May 14 @ 6 p.m. I had some questions about why my room was not cleaned. She was rude, disresectful and could not care less. Other hotel staff were fine but my experience with her soured my opinion of the hotel. Would not return there. "

Mark Spencer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great experience with the Mark Spencer hotel. From check in to check out everything went so smooth. They allowed me to check in early. Helped me with my luggage. Staff was super friendly. Room was very clean and plenty comfortable. The gym room could use a little help but that’s not a huge deal. Would definitely recommend staying here. "

Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland Downtown

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was really great. Love the omelette station. Staff was friendly especially the valet team. They are very kind and professional. Parking is pretty expensive $65 per night. Location was great. Some characters on the street but just mind your own business and keep your head on a swivel. MUJI was right down the road and they have a really nice mall there. Pool and arcade room was ok. Hot tubs were great. Overall what made this stay great was the staff and the location. Would definitely stay again"
