Hotel at a Glance: The Royal Sonesta Portland Downtown

Tucked into the vibrant heart of downtown Portland, The Royal Sonesta Portland Downtown radiates the city’s storied legacy and thriving modernity. Once the grand Lipman Wolfe Department Store opened in 1912, this storied structure has been thoughtfully restored to meld architectural grace with the comforts of a boutique hotel. Each common area—from the show-stopping lobby to the cozy lounge—echoes whispers of early 20th-century elegance, yet resonates with the spirit of today’s traveler: worldly, discerning, and inspired by mid‑century design. With cultural gems like Powell’s City of Books, the Portland Art Museum, and Tom McCall Waterfront Park mere steps from your door, the hotel situates guests at the center of both Portland’s heritage and its contemporary pulse.

Within, 135 suites offer an evocative nod to the golden age of travel—complete with bold furnishings and fine finishes, built for both business and romance . Complementing this refined accommodation are modern essentials crafted for today’s guest: 24/7 business and fitness facilities, adaptable 8,000 sq ft of meeting space, and thoughtful services that honor both your comfort and convenience. Whether hosting an event inspired by Portland’s independent ethos or indulging in a late‑night Peloton session, you’ll discover a stay that balances historic pride with contemporary refinement.

Portland, OR: A Tapestry of Innovation and Independent Spirit

Portland, Oregon, stands as a proud beacon of the Pacific Northwest—a city shaped by its pioneering heritage and celebrated for its bold individuality. Nestled between the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, Portland was founded at the crossroads of commerce and exploration, and today it remains deeply rooted in its legacy of craftsmanship, sustainability, and civic pride. The city's tree-lined streets and historic districts, like the Pearl District and Old Town Chinatown, echo the era of 19th-century expansion while embracing a modern ethos of green urban planning and forward-thinking design.

Portland is more than just a city—it’s a cultural force. Known for its fiercely independent artisans, chefs, brewers, and makers, the city cultivates a thriving creative economy without compromising its natural surroundings. The iconic view of Mount Hood in the distance underscores the region's profound connection to nature, while Forest Park—one of the country’s largest urban forests—offers miles of trails just minutes from downtown. With a reputation for literary depth, environmental activism, and a farm-to-table culinary movement, Portland has carved out a distinct identity: fiercely local, historically mindful, and always evolving.

Amazing!! We were booked into the Royal Sonesta Hotel in Portland by our travel agent as we had gone in to book a holiday to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. All we knew was that we wanted to visit four areas of the West Coast. We had absolutely no idea where to stay, but, boy, were we delighted with the choice. As soon as we pulled up outside we were blown away by the beauty and appearance and the inside did not disappoint either. Our room is just beautiful with gorgeous furniture and fittings and so spacious. The staff are super helpful, and the jazz pianist, Julian, was so friendly. Thank you, Royal Sonesta, we will definitely be returning _

The Weird that is Portland This hotel was extraordinary. The ambiance is decadent; it's chic is luxurious. Honestly this hotel is such a hotspot for us, that we have made it our spot to build a lodging relationship with. Whenever we are in Portland, particularly in Downtown; this will be our stay. We loved it that much. Its location is logistically on point. Everything we wanted was minutes away. From Powell's Books, Raven Manor, to even the local Whole Foods. Top notch.
