The staff was sincerely kind and helpful. The esthetic and ambience was whimsical and classy without being stuffy. The room was very comfortable and cozy. Such a wonderful experience all the way around. I would go back again in an heartbeat and recommend to any one staying in Portland who wants to have a fun, friendly comfortable stay or get away.

We had a great stay at the Royal Sonesta! Everyone was extremely friendly especially our valet driver Kathryn. She gave us a lot of helpful tips about the attractions we visited and was always smiling. The room had a log of character and was very clean. Would visit again.

Though I live in Portland, I needed a room in Downtown for an event. I can definitely say that this hotel is so very Portland. I knew I was going to love it from the second I walked into that lobby. In terms of feel and decor, it is so lively, whimsical, colorful, artsy, and just plain beautiful. It’s the kind of hotel you might find in a Wes Anderson movie. Moreover, every member of the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Front desk, bartender, and valets were all a complete pleasure to interact with. The room itself was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and had a great view of the city. If you have a car, their parking structure has a gate and is attended to the entire time. And yes, you can go in and out as you please. I can’t recommend this place enough. I can’t wait for an excuse to need a room in downtown just so I can stay here again. Oh, and it’s within walking distance from so many great places! Love this place.

We enjoyed our three night stay at this lovely hotel. The area felt with several nearby restaurants, including the hotel restaurant Finch on Fifth. Valet parking was extremely safe and secure with genuinely friendly valet staff. Shout out to Kathryn who greeted us warmly each time we saw her. Housekeeping was somewhat unpredictable as is often the case these days, but a phone call took care of anything we needed quickly and pleasantly. We enjoyed the Saturday wine hour and the coffee and pastries on the other mornings

Have been to Royal Sonesta in Portland a few times this year for work and pleasure. The staff is always fun and friendly. It was nice to be remembered by Kathryn at the valet! She does a great job 👏🏼 Also enjoy Chris and the creativity he brings to the place.
