The Nines, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Portland
Portland, United States · ★★★★★ · 9.2/10 Exceptional · guest rating
Luxury hotel in a historic 1909 building facing Pioneer Courthouse Square, with a nine-story atrium, two restaurants, two bars and a rooftop terrace.
The Nines occupies the upper floors of the historic Meier & Frank building, from 1909, once a great Oregon department store, and looks onto Pioneer Courthouse Square, Portland's central plaza. Its name alludes to the nine-story atrium, which fills the interiors with natural light and combines restored architectural details with contemporary design and regional art, in an ideal spot for exploring downtown on foot.
The hotel has two restaurants serving American cuisine, two bars, a rooftop terrace, a garden and a library. It offers room service, a gym, laundry and a 24-hour front desk, and pets are accepted. Among its venues are Urban Farmer and Departure, the latter with city views. Confirm hours and reservations with the hotel before you travel, especially for the rooftop terrace.
