We arrived late and the desk clerk assisted us in getting our boarding passes for the next morning's early flight. She went out of her way to help us. The shuttle driver was also very friendly.

Positives: The staff was outstanding and so helpful.

Negatives: Carpets need to be changed.

Nice hotel near airport. Even though it was by the airport, I did not hear any plane noise. The hotel was clean, and the staff was helpful. The rooms were nice - very comfortable beds, desk and sofa, small kitchen area with a sink, fridge, and microwave. Bathroom was nice and it even had a real plant for that extra touch. The morning breakfast service was excellent - cereals, breads, muffins, juices, coffees and tea, fruit, yogurt, make-your-own-waffles, eggs, sausage, biscuits & gravy. My only complaint was that the heater in my room died in the middle of the night, but I don't find fault in the hotel.

Positives: Beds very comfortable, quiet location near airport, nice view of a lake, better than average breakfast.

Negatives: Far from city, restaurants, and city amentities.

My wife and I spent a getaway weekend at the Portland Airport Clarion and completely enjoyed our stay. The staff was professional and courteous. The atmosphere was quiet, the king size bed was extremely comfortable and our weekend was restful. The breakfast bar was good and the access to nearby restaurants was very good. We would love to stay there again.

Positives: Clean, modern and friendly atmosphere.

Negatives: One lamp in our room needed repair, loose base; and we could hear the elevator bell from our room.

The hotel provided a good service was very clean. They also provided a decent hot continental breakfast and had a social meet in the evening during the week. Downside is the limited amount of local restaurants. Although Salty's Sea food Restaurant is close and runs a shuttle. Also the hotel wouldn't shuttle you anywhere except the airport, which does leave you locally stranded.

Positives: I liked the view over the Columbia river, I loved the room size.

Negatives: The bed was a bit too soft, causing me to sink into the mattress and not sleep enough.

Room is large, furnishings were ok, but room smelled like smoke. Bathroom was small and the vanity did not have enough counter space to accommodate personal items.

Positives: Close to airport and restaurant.

Negatives: Put in smoking room - did not like.

The hotel was in a convenient. The air conditioner always rattled, sometimes it would get really loud too. We had to keep fixing the toilet because it wouldn't stop running. And once in a while the TV would get lines through it and make a loud buzzing noise. We stayed there for 3 nights and I was not happy there. I will definitely not stay at a Clarion ever again. I did like that there was a makeup mirror in the bathroom but that's pretty much it. We didn't ask for another room because it's such a hassle to pack everything back up and move.

Positives: There was a makeup mirror in the bathroom.

Negatives: The air conditioner rattled, toilet wouldn't stop running, TV didn't work.

When we complained to the front-desk person she said she couldn't help us as we did not work directly with the hotel. We only stayed because we did not want to travel in the dark in a foreign place. The experience was one of the worst I have had in quite a while.

Positives: Um, fruit?

Negatives: The room stunk and we had to sleep with the windows open to breathe.

I love the king size bed. It's very comfortable and soft. It has everything I may need, such as microwave, fridge, internet, free airport shuttle and breakfast. I would recommend my friends to come and stay at Clarion Hotel.

Positives: Free airport shuttle service.

Negatives: Air conditioner is too noisy.

This hotel was an amazing. A few small complaints were the lack of WiFi access and the difficulty in getting the hotel staff to fix the problem (we had to speak with different staff). The bathroom sink area was also a bit small (high on style and little low on functionality). But the breakfast was good, the beds were comfortable and the rooms were well cleaned.

Positives: The breakfast buffet was very good - hot buffet with lots of options.

Negatives: The WiFi access in our room was non existent for the first two days of our stay and their was only one laundry room available for the entire hotel.

The location is convenient from the airport. The hotel is clean and quiet. The front desk employees were polite and efficient. The quality of the bedding and comfort of the beds exceeded our expectations. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations. I will stay there again when in Portland.

Positives: The hotel is clean and quiet. The location is convenient from the airport. The bedding and comfort of the beds exceeded our expectations.

Negatives: The breakfast was crowded, eggs were cold and the person keeping the area stocked could not keep up.

Spaciously comfortable, air conditioning was decent, friendly, helpful staff, lovely luxurious rooms and bathroom with view of the Columbia River, very clean, quiet and comfortable. Well equipped rooms with fridge, microwave and coffee maker with industrial china and glass instead of plastic, Styrofoam. Even though the ice machine was out on my floor I give it 10 points for the fluffy towels and plenty of quiet and comfort!

Positives: Cool, calm, clean, quiet, relaxing, helpful, great view.

Negatives: The ice machine was out on my floor.

The remodeled rooms literally meant tearing out the old sinks and putting in new ones without repairing the paint/wall paper/drywall behind it so the damage was visible. A new shower curtain with the old round toilet and ancient tub does not make for a complete remodel.

Positives: It was near the airport with a shuttle.

Negatives: cheaply remodeled rooms.
