Holiday Inn Portland - Columbia Riverfront, An Ihg Hotel, Portland

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location added a bit of a resort feel with beautiful views of the river, but the noise from the nearby I5 was a bit annoying. The service was friendly and courteous, yet there were some issues with cleanliness in the rooms. Dining was somewhat disappointing, lacking in options for families with children.

The hotel offers very spacious and modern rooms, but the surroundings overlooking the parking lot with homeless individuals can be unsettling at night. The service is inconsistent, with some staff being rude and unhelpful while others, like Nikki, stand out positively. The location is lovely and quiet, though a bit far from downtown Portland, requiring transportation. The dining experience is perfect, especially with a hot custom breakfast and a view of the Columbia River. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory with some minor issues.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were fantastic with a modern touch, featuring a balcony that overlooked the beautiful green common area and the water. However, the service fell short with some rude staff and issues encountered. The location, while convenient for access to both Portland and Vancouver, had its drawbacks. The dining experience was not up to my expectations, lacking the typical quality I associate with Red Lion.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while spacious and clean, had a slight smell and could have been more meticulously maintained. The beautiful view of the Columbia River was a highlight, but I was disappointed that the room with the view I requested was unavailable. Despite the willingness to pay extra, I was informed it was not an option. The service, unfortunately, fell short with rude and inattentive staff members. However, the facilities provided, such as dry cleaning and laundry services, were convenient. The location, while close to major cities like Vancouver and Portland, was not well-staffed for certain services like garbage pickup and recycling.

The hotel rooms didn't quite meet my expectations as they smelled old, were located near a busy road, and lacked the 'wow effect' I was hoping for. Despite requesting a room with a view, which I was willing to pay extra for, I was informed it was unavailable when someone else inquired about it over the phone.
