14 Best Hotels in Portland, OR
"Hotel Lucia is an artsy, funky downtown hub for guests both near and far, who come to experience Portland’s many charms, and nowhere else will you be more centrally positioned to enjoy them. The Lucia’s stately brick facade opens from downtown’s busiest byway into a supremely cozy gallery-esque lobby lined with soft Persian rugs, high-backed velvet armchairs, a flickering fireplace, and an art collection that includes the world’s largest collection of black-and-white photos by Pulitzer Prize winner David Hume Kennerly, former staff photographer for The Oregonian newspaper. Wi-Fi is free and fast, the cushy pillowtop mattresses are wrapped in luxurious Italian-made Mascioni linens, the pillow menu lets you pick between soft, medium, firm, or extra firm, in-room Nespresso coffee machines mean no stumbling downstairs to get your wake-up cup, and Tivoli Bluetooth Clock Players let you stream your own Portland playlist. The gym is equipped with live-streaming Peloton bikes, and the Well+Fit kits have a Manduka yoga mat, barre3 bands, weights, a core ball, and an iPad loaded with workouts. Or, if you'd prefer to get out and about, ask the staff about discounted local studio passes or borrow one of the hotel’s Shinola bicycles." - Jen Stevenson
