Expert reviews

Lonely Planet review:

“Stitching together two revived National Historic Register buildings, this new boutique hotel delivers sumptuous design with swanky amenities. Mid-century modern furnishings, tropical plants and elemental accents make up the opulent lobby, while forest green upholstered headboards and foliage-themed wallpaper feature throughout the 150 rooms.”

Very good

Woodlark has great style and the downtown location is conveniently located in the heart of the city.

I consider the nearby ongoing construction as 'progress' so I'm OK with that, however... downtown Portland has been infiltrated with the walking dead which is unfortunate. Thankfully, once inside the hotel... SANCTUARY!

Fabulous staff, great location

Absolutely wonderful front desk staff, ambience of the lobby was inviting, coffee at the coffee shop was superb

Room doors slam shut and the noise from other guests coming and going was pretty loud

Fabulous

Such a cool, stylish hotel - the big windows invite you in! Once inside, it's a great space to enjoy. I love the quaint, classy bar-Abigail Hall. I love just sitting in the open lobby spaces with a cup of coffee. The hotel rooms have a super cool vibe and the location on Alder is perfect to get anywhere.

This is a great place to stay but the construction of the very large hotel next door is noisy come Monday morning. Very smart of Woodlark to have a white noise machine in the room for early morning.

lovely coffee shop in the lobby

paid for larger room, wasn’t worth it, decor made the room seem cold

awesome!

Great modern style, great bar, great coffee in the morning.

Took me a while to find the blow dryer. And the team fixing the (really good) coffee in the morning was a bit uncoordinated, which made them take 10 minutes to fix a Flat White.

This would be my forever go to in Portland if only the parking was more reasonably priced.

Can’t say enough about how great the staff are. There’s Good Coffee in the lobby with exceedingly good coffee. Furniture was nicely appointed. Bathroom fixtures are luxe. Location was amazing.

The valet parking was super expensive.

visit cut short by illness. the bed was so comfy

I loved all that was offered and was very excited about Staying at the Woodlark. I was very much looking forward to coffee and breakfast in the morning. I will definitely come back to visit. The staff at the desk was very kind in offering their assistance. The bed was super comfortable, the room was warm.

I got sick in the middle of my stay and left early. Because of this, I was not able to experience Woodlark the way I wanted to.

Very good

The cafe and the bar were really great. I mike the deco too.

For whatever reason, they didn’t clean my room one day even though I took the “no disturb” sign off the door.

hospitality, unbelievable attention to guests.

we had an issue with our original room-the staff was kind enough to move us to a different room, but it was smaller/not the same room type we had come from.

beware of free upgrade, will bite you in the end

Has the feel of a high end hotel, very nice facilities, super friendly staff.

My room was right next to an giant dumpster/ street. Very noisy, I thought I was getting a free upgrade, instead I spent the night in an active construction site, very bad nights sleep, would have preferred a quiet broom cupboard, gave up at 4 am and went to the airport early, ugh. all I wanted was some sleep 😭

In general we were comfortable sleeping in our rooms.

Option to have the room cleaned or not. Generous supply of shampoo, conditioner and body wash for our entire stay

Supply of towel set requested was not prompt. The light control was close to the door. We have to get up to turn off the light at night before we go to bed, instead of just reaching out for the lamps next to our bed.

fine but with more attention to detail by the staff could have been fabulous

the hotel was centrally located and clean the bar staff made fabulous cocktails

when we arrived there were three staff sitting at the desk chatting, they could see that I was struggling to open the door with all of my luggage but no one came to help - not a great welcome the staff later proceeded to tell us about their fabulous cocktail lounge that they suggested we went to but it was actually closed for our whole stay there was a kettle in the room but no tea or coffee or cups etc

1) The restaurant and bar on the ground floor are great. 2) Location 3) The valet paring is smooth and convenient. Yes, it is expensive.

1) The homelessness and drug crises in Portland are devastating. You could say that it is not a responsibility of the hotel, but I would argue with that. The location is a very important factor. It always affects the hotel rating. All the hotels are aware about that. Portland is a city with a great potential (hotels, restaurants, architecture, history), but it is poisoned by the homelessness and drug crises. It is very frustrating. What can the hotel do? Its owners as well as owners of other businesses must work with politics and the city government to fix the problem. They have money and power for that. Otherwise, they will lose their business sooner or later. 2) We had a room on the third floor. It had a very high ceiling (about 20 ft), but only one small and short window looking into a courtyard. It looked like some technical or non-residential premises that was converted to a hotel room. I would recommend to ask for a room with a street view.

Great location, hugely comfortable beds.

The showers were awful, no coffee in the room- expensive for these overlooked elements.

This is a beautiful hotel that has changed ownership since opening several years ago. The level of service isn’t as hig

Great location. Love Abagill Hall, Bullard and Good Coffee, all the staff in those restaurants are terrific. The interior design is beautiful and of course the beds are amazing.

Valet takes a really long time. If you need your car in a hurry plan ahead. I waited over 45 minutes after I asked for it the requested 15 minutes prior to when it’s needed . The towels in the room are also really thin. at one time they were much more luxurious.
