I'm going to Portland for the first time on the 25th - 28th. I was wondering if anyone knew of some good little hotels? I booked our first night at the Kennedy School, looks fun! But they were all booked up over the weekend. So I still need to lock down a place for Fri and Sat night. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Jupiter- was a cheap crack whore hotel now a cheap hiptard hotel + it's connected to the Doug Fir Lounge - it's connected to the Doug Fir lounge
Ace- have only been to the Seattle version but it's cheap and hip plus walking to the Pearl
Deluxe- rad 60's lounge called The Driftwood hasn't changed but it's not very close to anything else.
Lucia- spent my honeymoon there, get the Presidential suite if you can afford it, you wont be disappointed.

Depends on the price range. I like Hotel Lucia (http://www.hotellucia.com/) but it can be a bit spendy.
Never stayed at Kennedy School, but eat/drink there all the time.
There's quite a few boutique hotels downtown that are good. I just can't remeber the names right now.

haha k.. well I'm just about to book two nights at the lucia, (Premium King, I don't see the President Suite boooo) but then it hit me I should step back a second. I wasn't planning on renting a vehicle, should I? Is this hotel central enough to places of interest?
- I guess it's called Gallery Suite, nicest room I've ever stayed in but we got bumped up for no xtra charge.fooler2

yeah McMeamins can be a blast the first few times but then again I like beer and have listen to hippy music in the past.

Alrighty thanks guys. Ace won out. I've been looking forward to going to Portland for years, getting excited about the trip now. Thanks again for your help.

If anyone wants to try and grab a beer hit me up. We're taking a letterpress class on Fri. But otherwise it'll just be cruising around and stuff.
