Love the Crystal Hotel
Such a great place in an amazing part of Portland. Even cleaner than a year ago. So much to do, see and eat. All within walking distance. And you can't beat Hal's cafe right down the stairs!

We loved our stay. It’s a fun, quirky spot with warm moody lighting and a lot of unique character. Our room had a shared bathroom, but we never had to wait for bathroom access. Loves the location just around the corner from Powell’s books and Deschutes Brewing

Seamless check in, room and shared restroom was clean and tidy, comfortable. Parking is a bit of a challenge and being located downtown, there are some characters out and about outside the hotel. The room is small and it was a bit distracting to hear passion being shared in the room next door, for a better part of the night. Happy for them, love is grand, but it did impact my sleep somewhat.

This is a lovely little vintage flatiron with proper McMenamins quirkiness: decor, soaking pool, souvenirs, and staff. I would stay here again. The parking is a block away on foot: could be an issue for some folks. Overall, however, we had a lovely stay.
