Top Southwest Portland Hotel Reviews

Hotel Lucia

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was exceptional"

University Place Hotel & Conference Center

8/10 Good

"This was certainly an okay place to stay. We paid the extra $10 for a comfort room with upgraded Furnishings in an updated wing. Even with that the room was just okay. Well it was certainly clean enough the water pressure was terrible toilet filled almost to overflow before Flushing which was a little scary. But for a total of $150 including the parking charge for just an overnight sleep it was worth it as opposed to $250 or $300 elsewhere."
