Dossier Hotel, Portland
Expert reviews
“The recently opened Dossier (formerly the Westin Portland) is a luxury experience all the way. Packed with luxe furnishings, interesting art, and plenty of locally inspired amenities, this hotel is an excellent choice if you want a high-end hotel experience in the heart of downtown Portland.”
“Dossier opened in summer 2017 after a complete remake of a rather bland Westin hotel from the 1980s. The new owners have given it a sophisticated elegance without sacrificing comfort. The lobby is surprisingly small and seems somewhat disconnected from the rest of the hotel.”
“This 20-storey, 205-room modern block sits in a prime location in downtown Portland, offering a stylish boutique-style option for travellers with comfortable, well-equipped rooms and an elegant lobby and restaurant.”
“Nestled just blocks away from Portland’s living room (Pioneer Courthouse Square) is the newly opened Dossier. Pairing great accessibility to the area’s main attractions with sublimely luxurious touches, Dossier provides an ideal home base while visiting the City of Roses.”

Great staff, adorable property and within walking distance to every thing we wanted to do.
Property was super classy yet contemporary.

Very good hotel to walk around the old town, and close to the airport.
The room we stayed in was clean, and comfortable. Soft mattress were okay. The large bathroom was nice and would be nicer with a lock on the door. The coffee machine is a great plus, if you need that.
The thermostat does not work: it's locked at around 70F (during winter at least). Given the hotel, I did not expect an extra $6 for a bottle of water sitting on the room's desk: that felt cheap.

I would definitely stay again.
The room was perfect and quiet. Great view. The staff and the accommodations were excellent. Super dog friendly, which was a plus. Easy valet parking. Delicious restaurant downstairs.
The only thing I would say is it would be nice if there was a small green space to take your dog out to go potty. You have to walk around downtown and there are no garbage cans.

Friendly staff, responsive to requests, everything felt nice and luxurious.
The thermostat on the gym needs to be adjustable. I was dying in there and only the maintenance man (who had gone home for the day) had the ability to turn the heat down. Bar at the attached restaraunt was very expensive. My double Amaro cost me $36.

Amazing, friendly staff and excellent stay
The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The bed was gigantic and super comfy. On-site bar was hotel priced but nice, and the restaurants within walking distance were fantastic.
Local transit can feel a bit sketchy, but that's nothing to do with the hotel which was fantastic. We had an excellent experience at Dossier and love the location.

It was lovely and comfortable, the perfect space for seeing family; well-located downtown.

I prefer to have a bigger cup for tea. It would have been nice if that were an option in the room.

Best Pet-Friendly Hotel Experience Ever
We’ve stayed at many pet-friendly hotels, but this one truly went above and beyond. Our dog was welcomed with toys, treats, a comfy bed, and even doggy daycare and sitting options. It’s clear they genuinely care about their furry guests. We’re so grateful for the extra thoughtfulness and highly recommend this place to anyone traveling with pets!

Perfect sojourn in the heart of the city, great location and excellent service.
Was presented the opportunity to upgrade to the penthouse, which was amazing. Everyone in guest services was lovely and helpful.
The valet taking 45 minutes to get my car on my day of checkout.

Super convenient to TriMet, cafes, and shops. Would stay again for sure.
The room was wonderful, clean, all that you need, giant bathroom, wonderful shower. The view out our upper floor west facing window was so interesting. We saw lots of birds flying by and a dramatic thunderstorm from our window. The elevator was very efficient. The staff were very helpful. WE also enjoyed the healthy apples in the lobby.
I would rather have had a normal coffee maker instead of an espresso maker in the room. The wifi was confusing with a different log in at times, but staff were extremely helpful with this. We didn't find out when the lobby coffee hours were until the second morning.

Not enough towels in room. Only one bath towel per guest.

Exceptional Stay!
It was my anniversary and this by far has been the best hotel I have stayed at so far. A few highlights were: *The cleanliness of the lobby, room, elevator, walkways. *Friendly staff that you can contact through text or call. *I had asked for a complimentary upgrade due to the celebration of my anniversary and they had given us a premium corner room (based on availability.) *We arrived earlier due to our flight, we were given complimentary early check in with a check in beverage. *Check out at 12:00 PM *Free water, fruit, and even water bottles when asked for. *They provide 24/7 gym, pet friendly hotel, free bike and helmet (based on availability), umbrellas ready to go incase of rain and free coffee from 4AM - 9:00PM provided by Portland Coffee Roasters. Would 10/10 come back to Portland for the Dossier! Thank you Dossier team for creating a wonderful anniversary for me and my partner. I have no complaints.

Overall, the hotel in Downtown Portland is nice. However, the scent in the lobby is overwhelming and could be toned down
The room is nice and cozy in downtown Portland.
The scent used in the lobby makes me feel sick and nauseous. It is a very strong and unpleasant fragrance. Please stop using it or switch to something more subtle. Additionally, there seems to be a delay in cleaning rooms and a lack of communication between the front desk and housekeeping. We called for room service at 3 p.m., and while a ticket was sent, no one came to clean the room. When we returned to the hotel at 9 p.m., we were still waiting for the housekeeping team to arrive

Great staff all around. I texted the concierge pretty late (past 11pm) and asked if they had a firmer pillow, and one was delivered to my door right away. LOVED the bathtub in the king room. Nice sloped back for pure relaxation. The shower was great too, nice and hot with amazing pressure. I don't normally like any hotel products, but I looooved the scent of their shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The bed was very comfortable, wall unit AC responsive to our changes, and overall just a great hotel. Free beverage upon arrival (checking in) was a nice touch! I got a mini can of Coca-Cola, my favorite lol. Oh and it's super close to and easy to get around town on the TriMet rail or buses.
Can't think of a single negative on their part. I didn't love the area of downtown (didn't feel safe to walk around at night) but the hotel itself was like an oasis during our travels.

Comfortable Hotel and right Location in town
Close located in Walking distance to coffee Shops, Restaurants, shopping areas and public Parking Spaces. Using the Streetcar Tram is convienent to reach attractions like Washington Park. staying in an Upper floor is convienient and the rooms are comfortable.

Everything was great, except for the cost of parking.
Service, room was spacious, comfortable, and quiet. I liked having a bathtub. Art on the wall by local artists was a nice touch.
$60 for parking, plus tips, is ridiculous. If I stay there again I would park my car myself in a nearby garage.

Service, staff, rooms
Oregon can be expensive. This is no exception. You may need to stretch your budget a bit, but the services account for it.

I think I chose the perfect property for my first ever visit to Portland!
Location is probably the best in town to experience any downtown events or fine dining. The staff was the friendliest and very helpful and they were able to get me a room on a very high floor as requested. Think I had the best corner view of the city.
The door latch in my room. I locked myself out of my room the first day by mistake. That’s all!

Great stay overall. Could be helpful to be more communicative with early checkin requests.
cleanliness and room size were great!
check-in process can be improved. i get that early check in isnt guaranteed but they said theyll text us when the room was ready, and we killed like 3 hours and then went back at 4pm which is check in time, and they were like oh we were just abt to text you which is kinda suspicious.
