"Room is very spacious and clean! Staff are always helpful! Lots of amenities like restaurant, bar, gym and walking distance to lots of tourist attraction! Train and public transportation is right outside your door! Very convenient!"
"Finally, I found the perfect hotel for all my future visits to Portland. The location is very central, close to all the districts, and within walking distance of many attractions. The staff were friendly, professional, helpful, and welcoming—especially Assad. The rooms were cozy and spotless. It’s a family-owned boutique hotel, and you can truly feel the personal touch"
"Everything was wonderful. My son and I loved the streetcar theme—and the near-constant presence of them just outside the front door! The neighborhood is leafy and full of restaurants. And maybe most importantly, the hotel has the best coffee I’ve ever had a hotel. Worth an extra star for that alone."
"We had one issue, the shower water was scorching hot and unable to adjust with control handles. Room was clean as expected and staff was helpful and kind
"
"I love the Benson Hotel. Such a friendly staff and great ambience in a historical gem of a building. The rooms are beautifully furnished and clean and we had good, urban views of Portland."
"This property was so fun to stay at, they had restaurants available in the lobby and games that you could take up to your room. Even with a kiddo it was such a fun experience and they had dancing and fun activities at the bar. The best part was that everything was within walking distance of the hotel! Transportation, food, shopping, etc. a wonderful property, stay and experience!"
"Our only complaint is the Final Destination Shower set up. The floor is at an angle and there is no grip to the floor, and it was a half door not allowing the shower area to actually warm up. 0 water pressure. The design is neat, and flows with the rest of the room, but the bathroom also did not match the room photos that we booked online, but we arrived so late that we just wanted to get checked in. Overall, not efficient and somewhat dangerous shower. Other than that, everything was stellar....
"Beautiful older hotel. No pool, but the rooms are spacious, luxurious and comfortable. The only thing that I recommend are to install safety rails in the shower, otherwise excellent!"
