14 Best Hotels in Portland, OR
"When Marriott designed Hi-Lo, a 120-room boutique hotel, it brought in some of Portland’s most creative minds to reshape downtown’s striking turn-of-the-century Oregon Pioneer Building, the city's first concrete structure. Credit for the sleek, sensual lobby goes to interior designer Jessica Helgerson, also a former green-building activist, whose playful, contemporary style is evident in gently curved forest-green velvet loungers, live-edge Oregon walnut slab tables, delicate gold track lighting, macrame wall hangings, and hand-painted linen drapes. Perhaps most mesmeric, particularly for the Instagram set: the plush swinging settee that's suspended in the center of the room. The clean, modern design mixes raw materials (like the building’s original concrete beams and reclaimed local barn-wood paneling) with luxurious accents like radiant heated floors, Netflix-equipped 49-inch flat-screen TVs, and Oregon-made Pendleton Woolen Mills throw pillows." - Jen Stevenson
