Charming and comfortable place
This is a nice and comfortable hotel in a walkable neighborhood. Check-in was quick and efficient. Our room with a kitchenette was cozy but efficiently designed. My only complaint is that only one very small elevator was working, which led to waits. Note: the garage had very narrow ramps that are difficult to maneuver with a large vehicle. Fortunately we didn’t need to drive much during our stay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Mark Spencer Hotel, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The hotel's charm and elegance are evident the moment you walk through the doors. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. My room was beautifully appointed, blending modern comforts with classic style. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the room was equipped with all the amenities I could need, including a well-stocked kitchenette. I loved the thoughtful touches like the complimentary wine hour and the local coffee provided in the room. The location of the Mark Spencer Hotel is unbeatable, right in the heart of downtown Portland. It was so convenient to explore the city's vibrant neighborhoods, fantastic restaurants, and unique shops. The hotel's proximity to public transportation made getting around a breeze. One of the highlights of my stay was the delicious breakfast served each morning. The selection was varied and fresh, providing a perfect start to my day. The hotel's cozy lounge areas were also a great place to relax and unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. Overall, my stay at the Mark Spencer Hotel was nothing short of perfect. The combination of exceptional service, comfortable and stylish accommodations, and prime location make it a top choice for anyone visiting Portland. I can't wait to return!
