Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront

Stayed here for a leisure weekend. The location is great, rooms quite nice, and staff are very attentive -- except that they are really missing the skills of a concierge. Several times I had questions about services or amenities in the local neighborhood, and got incorrect or incomplete information or even "I never heard of that" in response to a request I thought of as common tourist info. They don't seem to have a separate concierge, these questions are just handled by the desk clerks, so my advice to management is, get a trained concierge; or, if you have one, they need to work more hours.

I was in Portland for the Saint Patricks weekend. It was a short walk downtown. The staff were beyond fantastic! When you check in, you get the felling like your there most important guest. Even the valet parking attendents were fantastic. I will stay here again!! :)

We stayed 1 night for a quick road trip up from Eugene. The "oversized double" bed was so small and my husband and I could barely fit. No fridge in the room. Other than that it was pretty nice and the staff were friendly.

During our stay the hotel was under construction (should be fininshed by mid February 2012). Even so, we did not hear construction noise and we had a terrific stay. The temporary lobby works great and there are many restaurants within walking distance. Know that you have to pay for parking ($30) and that the internet is also not free ($13).

Hotel was alright, had an ongoing renovation of the lobby, but coffee and cookies were nice - however there were lots of petty charges for things like Internet access. Our conference group paid 200$ for a few hours of Internet access, and it was cut off mid day due to "too many users" - which is ridiculous. Sadly the room I was given didn't have the correct number of beds, when I called the front desk to get it corrected nobody answered - so I decided to lump it. I wouldn't depend on details like that to work out here. The hotel has a sports bar attached with reasonable prices, and good hours. Although ordering off the menu for the same items as room service made a small lunch for two come to 85$ - I assume because the prices are increased when delivered this way.

I treated my girlfriend to a night at the Marriott on the water front. It was great. We got to see Greg Oden at Buffalo Wild Wings and topped that off with a party from some people we met from the hotel. Overall, it was a great experience. Thank you Mariott

Went here for a conference, so the rate was discounted and internet was included for free. Even so, nothing was particularly special about my stay. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the attached restaurant was expensive---the same could probably be said of most hotels of this class. One weird thing (or cool, I haven't yet decided) was that the inside elevator doors are reflective (practically a mirror). While it's nice to be able to check your hair, collar, etc. while in the elevator, standard elevator-sharing etiquette doesn't really apply anymore... I felt like I was forced to stare at the people around me.

above average. Only problem is slow Internet connection

The only thing I would have to liked to have known was that it is always valet parking which adds $30 to the cost per day. But the staff was very helpful and it is the perfect location.
