Benson Hotel The, Portland, Oregon Restaurant Details

Food:

Good experience. Great location. Yummy and quick room service. I would stay again.

Food:

Great spot downtown Portland for dinner & drinks. Lots of room at the lobby restaurant around 7 on a Sat night and filled up by 8. Great menu selection, I recommend the burger. If you're a drinker, they have several unique options to choose from. Excellent, friendly and attentive wait staff and wonderful jazz trio providing lovely music. The only downside is that downtown parking can sometimes be tricky but overall, an excellent spot!

Food:

The Benson Hotel is a beautiful building with a gorgeous lobby. The rooms are tidy, and well appointed. The bell hop was courteous and expedient. It is centrally located to most of downtown Portland hot spots.

Unfortunately, there was a Fireman's Union Ball being hosted that I was not made aware of when booking. An event that would have caused me to book my hotel elsewhere. During the night of said ball, a fireman pulled the Fire Alarm causing the building to need to be fully evacuated. 4 of my 13 person party who had stayed in the hotel due to illness and injury, were forced to walk down 8 flights of stairs and then made to stand in the cold, wet weather due to a Fireman's prank.

I would highly recommend explicitly requesting if an event is being hosted at the hotel, else you may not be made informed of it.

Food:

Good location.close to everything. Parking was abundant near by.

Lobby was fancy and busy. There was also complementary wine between 4 to 6. Note, elevators took forever. Gym was kinda smaller than expected.
The rooms were nice and did include a lot of amenities.

Food:

An historic establishment with a grand lobby and lobby bar jazz music in the evenings. Expensive. Check out the decorations during the Christmas season. They are beautiful. Too bad they closed the London Grill restaurant a while back.
