Hip hotel with record players, Stumptown coffee & Clyde Common bar
"After being acquired by Harder Day Coffee Company, the sale of Water Avenue Coffee Company was finalized on August 16 and employees were notified later that same day; the business will continue to operate under the Water Avenue Coffee Company name, recently opened a cafe at the Clyde Hotel (the former Ace Hotel SoHi purchased in 2021), and had intended to open in the same Northeast Sandy Boulevard space back in 2022." - Janey Wong
"The Bourbon Renewal at Clyde Common — a bright, open, two-floor restaurant and bar — is an elevated riff on a whiskey sour, with bourbon, lemon, creme de cassis, and bitters. The drink was crafted by Jeffrey Morgenthaler, arguably Portland’s most famous bartender who inarguably put the city on the world cocktail map. The Renewal is evocative of Clyde Common’s whole style — mature and elegant, but fun and accessible." - Alex Frane
"Offers budget-friendly accommodations such as compact rooms with shared bathrooms available around $119; like most properties in the group, it is part of the brand-wide summer sale that provides deeply discounted rates (rooms and suites for $150 per night from May 16–31 for stays June 1–September 10, 2023 while inventory lasts, then 40% off best available rate, with standard blackout dates)." - Lyndsey Matthews
"The second Ace Hotel and the first step in the oh-so-cool brand’s expansion, the Ace Hotel Portland can arguably claim to have launched the current boutique hotel craze. Though it sounds like a cliché in this age of thoughtfully designed hotels, the contemporary icon—opened in 2007 in the 1912 building that long housed the Clyde Hotel—was one of the first hotels designed to feel like a cool, culturally savvy friend’s home. It’s decorated with works by acclaimed local artists, outfitted with vintage furnishings and handcrafted decor (including signature Pendleton blankets), and staffed by trendy hipsters who point guests to the hottest underground music shows. Hometown hero Stumptown Coffee Roasters opened one of its first cafés here, starting a partnership that has since taken the coffee halfway around the world to the Ace Hotel London . In Portland, the café simply helped define the Ace as the epitome of cool, a reputation that has only been further cemented by the opening of a popular farm-to-table restaurant and a subterranean cocktail bar. The true measure of the Ace’s cool factor, however, is that the hotel was parodied on an episode of Portlandia ."
