Property Description

With our European-style ambiance, curated artwork and welcoming spirit, The Paramount Hotel Portland is the unique hotel you dream of discovering. Our downtown location puts you at the epicenter of Portland life, and we're the only hotel that can call Director Park our front yard. Steps away from Portland's top cultural venues, museums and restaurants, we feel worlds apart from the usual downtown hotels, with a bright, airy lobby, towering vaulted ceilings and plenty of inviting and intimate seating areas for working, relaxing or catching up with friends. Our approachable staff has perfected the art of getting you anything you need while still giving you your space — hosting without hovering. Each of our 154 guest rooms, including two suites, has been re-imagined and redesigned, and many offer splendid views of Director Park or the West Hills. Pillow-top beds are draped with fine linens and plush bedding while "larger-than-your-average-bathroom" bathrooms feature ample granite counter space and Gilchrist & Soames bath amenities. Tech-savvy perks like 50" Samsung LCD HD TVs and alarm clocks with USB ports and wireless charging keep you connected, along with complimentary Wi-Fi, lobby coffee and tea. Dining and socializing are essential parts of The Paramount Hotel experience at Taylor Street Tavern and Swine Moonshine + Whiskey Bar.
