Recent guest reviews

Staff barely greeted me, they were looking at things on their phones and laptop. Stood there for a few minutes before they made much of any effort at all.

Historic and nicely renovated. Classic, not modern.

The decor and comfort was amazing. So was the staff. My only complaint was that we didn’t feel safe about leaving our car in a public parking lot in the neighborhood and the windows let in entirely too much noise. As comfortable as the bed was, we had a hard time sleeping with all the traffic and yelling outside. It wasn’t until the next morning we found one set of ear plugs hiding in the vanity.

The Geand Stark i is s a great place to stay in PDX - an old building renovated to be a hipster hotel. Clean and fresh with a friendly and “on it” staff. The cafe is fun and good food/coffee. PDX doesn’t have the best hotels and we really feel like we scored with Stark.
