Portland Hotel Guide - St. Johns Bridge hotels in Portland, United States of America.

"The room was nice, a little small for what I was expecting. We booked a king room with a balcony. There were limited amenities in the room, super small mini fridge. We had to pay an extra $75 a night for potential damages, which would be nice to know before booking a non refundable room. We also did not get any room service until the last night we were there. They left us 2 towels in the hotel room, two towels for two people for two nights.. the hotel property itself is nice, with the two restaurants. The breakfast at the restaurant was gross but it was a cute place. I probably wouldn’t stay again. "

"Great Hotel"

"Some of the First floor rooms feel like you are in the basement"

"If you want to visit Portland, which I’ve done several times, this is definitely my first choice from now on! It’s right across the Fremont bridge on the city side, so you have easy access to the waterfront and the east side, but also many of the very cool restaurants and shops on 23rd St. are very close! I was able to use that as my homebase and explore the city and visit family and it was wonderful! The staff are especially nice and welcoming, the rooms are spacious and clean, and there’s plenty of good parking. Excellent place to stay!"

"Room was clean. Check in was easy but we got no information about the Continental breakfast or hours of the amenities. The restaurant wasn't what we expected. There is no wait staff, instead you order at the bar and they page you when your order is ready. Complimentary drinks were nice. Great location for attending events at the Expo Center."

"The Mark Spencer is not what it was. We have stayed here I think four times and the most recent visit likely will be our last. First kudos to the staff for being solicitous and very helpful. However our room was not cleaned well. We found an old soap wrapper in the bathroom, some lost headphones under the bed, and a spent coffee packet in the coffee maker filter basket. We didn't dare use any of the mugs or glasses in the room, some of which were visible dirty. Apparently the booking included a bottle of wine, which no one offered us. We didn't miss it but the principle of the matter is indicative. The breakfast options were nice to have but would have been better if the advertised fresh fruit had been available. We enjoyed a tasty breakfast sandwich but received it on an English muffin instead of the requested croissant. Not a huge deal but again, indicative of the attention being paid to details. Top notch drip coffee from Peru and a very good espresso helped. From check in to check out the staff uniformly were helpful and courteous. John greeted us out front upon arrival and when he learned that we were running late he most graciously helped us get our bags to our room, as we had to park across the street due to the garage being full. Easy parking which was nice. It saddens me to see what was a home-away-from-home fail to meet the standards we used to appreciate at this handsome old hotel."

"Bathroom fan didn't work and bathroom sink was slow to drain. Room would be fine for a single person, but not a family."

"Very good stay overall staff were very nice and helpful during my stay there, thank you very much!"

"Clean, quiet, great amenities."
