One of the best things about the Mark Spencer Hotel is the staff itself. They're very nice and welcoming. The area is also walkable to most of the attractions in downtown Portland. Restaurants are easy to find. It isjust an overall enjoyable experience.

Clean, friendly, convenient, quiet. Free coffee (though it was empty at 5:30a, which is a no-no!) and a wine tasting happy hour. Great place!

Amazing hotel 5 stars is not enough
I cannot recommend the Mark Spencer Hotel in downtown Portland highly enough. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted by the warm and welcoming staff who made me feel right at home. Their exceptional hospitality truly set the tone for my entire stay. The location of this hotel is absolutely perfect. Situated in the heart of downtown Portland, it is within walking distance of incredible dining, shopping, and entertainment options. Whether exploring the Pearl District, browsing Powell’s Books, or enjoying one of the many fantastic nearby restaurants, everything is conveniently close. What truly sets the Mark Spencer apart is the attentiveness of the staff. During my visit, I accidentally left an expensive electronic device in my room. I was frantic, but the staff quickly put me at ease. Not only did they locate the item, but they also went above and beyond to ensure its safe return. Their dedication to their guests is exceptional. Another highlight is the coffee. The hotel offers complimentary coffee around the clock, and it is not just any coffee it is brewed fresh from their onsite roastery. The rich, bold flavor made every cup a delight and provided the perfect pick-me-up for exploring the city. The hotel itself is stunning. Every detail is beautifully curated, with tasteful decor and art that reflects Portland’s unique charm. The common spaces and rooms are thoughtfully designed, combining elegance and comfort seamlessly. The art displayed throughout

We love staying at Mark Spencer Hotel. We’ve stayed here many times as it’s out number one go-to. We can always count on a clean and spacious room, extremely comfortable beds with plenty of pillows, and very friendly and accommodating staff. They offer a complimentary daily wine hour from 5pm-6pm as well. This affordably upscale location is in walking distance to many restaurants, bars, entertainment venues and more. I highly recommend Mark Spencer Hotel for you and your loved one’s, you won’t be disappointed!

Great hotel with nice rooms. There was a couple of homelessness people that came off the elevator around 10 pm, so they may want to increase the front door security.
