Top hotels in East Portland
La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Portland Airport
Very nice place was under renovation so was in disarray but still better than most with a heated indoor pool and jacuzzi. Breakfast was included with scrambed eggs, sausage, waffles ect. Would recommend for comfort, location to airport and all freeway entrances a block away.

Best Western Pony Soldier Inn - Airport
I think it need total replacement of flooring, remove the old and smell’s like nursing home carpet , and replace a nice updated wood flooring. And the swimming pool should be open always . We didn’t have the chance to swim this time . Staff is amazing.

The Paramount Hotel
The hotel is a bit older but rooms and common areas have been well maintained. The room was very clean. This is a great place to stay for the money. Would stay here again when visiting Portland.
