Sitting along the Portland Streetcar line (and with free tickets offered to every guest), the stylish Inn at Northrup Station bursts with color and originality while keeping you close to the city center. Enjoy a time-honored Portland tradition of people-watching from your private balcony, decked out with seating and massive live plants slinking up the side of the building. Alternatively, if you prefer a communal experience, take in the city sounds and sights from the boutique hotel’s rooftop lounge, replete with heaters and modern decor.

For a quieter holiday escape, retreat a bit farther from the city at this lodge-style hotel. Fully equipped with business amenities, a fitness room and spacious suites with kitchens, Larkspur Landing is a great option for families or extended stays. Little touches – such as freshly baked cookies waiting in the lobby, an outdoor firepit with plush couches to lounge on and a patio with a barbecue grill – make the experience memorable.
