"The Press Hotel nails the “old newsroom turned boutique” thing without the cigarette smoke or deadlines. Sharp rooms, great staff, and enough personality to make every chain hotel feel like a press release."

"The hotel was great! Located right in downtown Portland there are a lot of things to do within walking distance. There is a parking garage right next door to the hotel. Make a trip to the top of the east for snacks and drinks, you won’t be disappointed."
"Staff was very helpful and attentive. Hotel was able to accomodate early check-in. Hotel location was fabulous; near stores, restaurants and pier. Did not need to drive anywhere, which was great since you have to pay for parking. Enjoyed my stay. Only con would be that the room had an armour, and there had ro put luggage on sofa. A luggage rack would have been helpful."
"We had a great stay at the Press Hotel in October to celebrate a wedding anniversary. Staff were pleasant and knowledgeable and the location is great. Close to all we wanted to do. We did not dine in the restaurant but it looked lovely. The room we were in was nice and spacious with a comfy bed and really nice bathroom.
Our only complaint is that the heating/cooling in our room did not seem to work efficiently. We would set the thermostat to 66 to sleep and it would never get below 68 degrees in the room. However, the hallways of the hotel were nice and cool. We actually opened the window a few nights to let some crisp, fall air in. I did not notify the front desk but if I was there longer I would have.
When we are back in the area we will stay here again for sure."
