Holiday Inn Portland - Columbia Riverfront by IHG

I knew this was not a new property when I booked my stay so I was prepared for an OK stay af best. I was in town for a guided fishing trip on the Columbia River and the location of the hotel played a large part in my decision to stay here and I’m glad I did. Check-in was efficient and pleasant. The young lady that helped me was incredibly helpful and obviously knew what she was doing. My room was large, clean, had a comfortable bed, a coffee maker, fridge, microwave, a small balcony, and a view of the river. When I checked in, I was reminded that breakfast was included in my stay and was open at 6:00am. I was meeting my fishing party at 6:30 so this presented a problem. I arrived at the restaurant before they opened. The woman working there told me I was just a few minutes early and coffee wasn’t quite ready. I told her I was going fishing and wondered if I could get breakfast to-go as I was limited on time. She said sure and took my order to the kitchen. 10 minutes later I had my breakfast and a small thermos of fresh coffee and off I went. When I got to the boat I opened my to-go container and enjoyed one of the best breakfast burritos I’ve ever had, accompanied by a cup of fresh fruit and small container of Tabasco for my burrito. Fishing wasn’t great, but my experience at this vintage Portland landmark was top shelf and made my getaway better than I could have possibly planned. Great job guys. Thank you.

Room was clean, fresh and roomy. Front desk personnel were professional and kind. Food was amazing. Second visit here and again we remained pleased. Will stay again!

It was quiet and nice views, free parking was a plus. The freeway was very close. Comfy beds and pillows. Definetely coming back

Perfect location for our planned activities. Clean, great friendly , helpful staff.

Location is good, next to freeway but still quiet. Being next to the river brings such peace. Beautiful morning views of the river. I liked having a mini fridge and microwave. Beds are comfy and liked having two sinks. Free parking is a plus! We were on site when a fire ocurred and the front desk called to evacuate and also security was going around knocking on doors to evacuate. Despite this fire event, staff kept us informed and relocated us to a new unaffected wing. It’s unfortunate this happened to the property, hopefully the affected wing opens soon. We would definetely come back! Thanks to Bailey at reception for all her help!

I had a great time while is visiting. This location was perfect. There are stores and restaurants near by as well as an onsite restaurant. There is quick access to the freeway and no matter where I was going it all seemed to take about the same amount of time. The hotel is right in the river and it has absolutely stunning views. My room was clean and comfortable and the staff was incredibly friendly.

That it was by the river

That they closed off going down to the river!!!!

The staff definitely! So helpful and friendly the whole weekend.

The beds were very uncomfortable and too old and soft. The hotel needs updating but when our room didn’t meet our expectations with the air not working, bad smell in the bathroom, they moved us right away and the room was much better.

We had a lovely time. The first day was rough because we lost power in the entire hotel for almost a whole full day. The staff was wonderful and made every accomodation possible and all our needs were met. We were still able to do our dance competition eventually and everything turned out great. Hotel was beautiful and clean.
