Portland hotels near Pioneer Courthouse Square

Cons: As a frequent traveler, I've stayed in my fair share of hotels of varying degrees of comfort. Upon checking into the Paramount hotel, I was very pleased with the hotel and my room- however, my pleasant experience stopped there. At 1 AM my first night, the guest in the room next to me was being overly disruptive. I finally called the front desk, spoke to April, and hoped it would be taken care of. The guest continued to be loud and I woke up every hour- at one point she was screaming at a hotel employee that he was assaulting her- until I called again at 4 AM and was told that the guest was being escorted out. However, this process was also loud and kept us up until close to 5 AM- and ultimately, the hotel took 4 hours to solve a problem that I called about at 1 AM. I understand that a loud neighbor is not the hotel's fault- what happened next was. I never received any sort of follow up from them, explaining or apologizing for our terrible night. Since I was not contacted, I stopped by the front desk and spoke to Jeremy- he was rude and did not apologize or offer any explanation as to what happened or what compensation we could expect. I stopped the desk a second time and requested that a manager call me on my cell phone- I was going to be out of my room all day. I left my cell phone number with Jeremy- and received no call. I returned to the hotel around 7PM and once again approached the front desk- I was told there was no available manager and that I wouldn't be able to speak to one until 9 AM the next morning (after I was already expected to check out). Finally, Charlie at the front desk was able to get a hold of a manager who said that she had tried calling my room (even after I specified that I would be out all day and specifically left my cell phone number) and that they would compensate one night of my valet parking ($39). Through all of this, I still never spoke to a manager and never received a formal apology (though a manager did call me on my flight back to New York the next day). Overall, the horrible customer service and miscommunication of the hotel staff left me upset and, frankly after the events of the night before, unsafe. For the cost of this hotel, I expected better service and a better compensation for my lost night of sleep. My stay was handled in an unprofessional manner- I certainly will not be returning and urge others to choose other accommodations when visiting Portland.

Cons: Doorman were terrible. Never opened the door once for us. Three of them just stood there and watched my wife and I open the door ourselves. I have no problem opening doors, but whats the point of having three doorman if they don't do anything. Minor detail. Just thought it was funny. Not a hard job.

Cons: Toilet stopped up twice but staff were right on it when notified.

Cons: Walls were a bit thin?

Cons: Bed hurt my back (not normal), loud jacuzzi, TV channel surfing was a bit awkward.

Cons: Location was distant from downtown district and restaurants. No closet in our room or space to put away our clothing.

Cons: Wonderful room and better service.

Cons: Parking fees. Seems that as a guest of the hotel that I shouldn't have to pay to have my car parked or at least a discounted rate.

Cons: We were in a corner room on the 9th floor, so the room was in a weird shape, not necessarily bad, but just to note. There was a bright hallway light that shone through under the door - had to cover it with pillows. There was no view, our one window literally opened up to a wall.

Cons: We had a particularly bad room. bottom floor, next to housekeeping, handicap accessible. Parking seemed a little outrageous--we parked down the street

Cons: Pretty shabby. Tiny tiny room. Weird space. Seems like a very old property that needs to be updated.

Cons: A little loud, even though I asked for a quiet room.

Cons: Get 24 hour room service

Cons: (1) Took well over 1 hour to check in at 2;30PM -- no rooms available! (2) Noisy. Lots of ambient street noise

Cons: Bed was a little firm but still got a good nights rest.

Cons: I like a firmer bed but no one else in the party had bed issues

Cons: To high of price for what you get. Rooms do not have microwaves or refrigerators as you would expect in a high priced hotel.

Cons: House keeping took all of our towels one day and did not replace them. Had to ask a housekeeper once then the front desk two more days to bet bathrobes.

Cons: The previous guest's coffee grounds were left in the waste basket.

Cons: Old dirty hotel under a renovation. Should close the hotel until the renovation is done. Don't stay here!!

Cons: Lights in restaurant flickered Staff was not good Shower didn't drain

Cons: It is a bit noisy, you are right next to an airport, so there is a limitation there. This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel, and I seem to have horrible sinus issues when staying here, versus leaving the hotel for a few hours. I feel like it is a tad expensive overall.

Cons: called repeatedly for shuttle, kept getting put on hold at 11:30pm

Cons: power outlets near the bed would allow us to charge the phones while waiting for an alarm

Cons: The food was pricy for what you actually receive

Cons: The food no vending machine

Cons: Bathroom lights were too dim. Couldn't be adjusted. Full length mirror was in a place it couldn't be used unless you moved a heavy floor lamp. Couldn't get the water temperature adjusted in the shower. It ran super hot then very cool. Not enough outlets.
