Be treated like the star of the universe – The finest accommodations we have enjoyed in several years. Upon arrival we were whisked to the reservation desk and in less than five minutes were sitting comfortably in our room. The view was magnificent and the room spotless. There is nothing you could possibly desire that the hotel staff were unable to provide, and do so with a friendly smile and create a feeling that you request is of absolute importance. There are several small quaint eateries close by with every possible food... read more

Poor customer service. – Well, when people ask how my trip to Portland was? I must reply? it was great once we got to the right hotel. Several years ago we took advantage of a big deal package at the Governor?s Hotel, it was very pleasant, a nice room with a fireplace, the steam room and pool. So I planned, a couple of months ahead, a get away for my husband?s birthday. When I first looked at the big deal, I did not see any rooms available, so I went to the Governor?s Hotel website and made reservations for the Winter Warmer... read more

Historic old Portland disapointing – My husband and I booked a Jr. Suite in this historic Portland landmark for my 50 BD 2 months in advance. When we called to confirm reservations (the day of arrival) they said they gave us a "complimentry king room upgrade". The "complimentry room upgrade" was anything but that, no fireplace and only a bed not a suite! They tried to put us in a lesser grade room because suposedly another couple decided to stay an extra night and they gave them our reserved room. I've never heard of this of... read more

A great hotel and top notch service... – I must say this is a very nice hotel. It has a very historic feel to it without it being creepy, just elegant. I stayed in the Penthouse Terrace Suite with my girlfriend and it was very memorable and romantic. And don't let the word penthouse and suite scare you. It was a very good value, only $280 which is a steal in any big city for this caliber of hotel. It was on the highest floor in a newly renovated west wing. The room was beautiful, the views amazing, and very comfortable. What... read more

Long wait to check-in, otherwise nice – We stayed here for 1 night in October 2006. We arrived at 4pm (check-in is at 3pm) and had to wait 45 minutes to get a room. Normally, it wouldn't have been such a pain, however we had to meet some people within the hour. The hotel was nice, room and parking came to $200 for one night (seemed a little high). Overall, I would recommend once they clean up the check-in process.

Great Jacuzzi tubs – Great staff, really nice customer service. I really felt like I was being taken care of. I got a a penthouse suite for a regular room rate one night. Beautiful balcony views, great jacuzzi tub. My fireplace wasnt working so they sent up a bottle of wine! Great bar downstairs-Jake's grill, they have an excellent happy hour.

This grand hotel offers a glamorous big-city feel with a touch of homespun hospitality. – The Scene The Governor was built in 1909, following the prosperous days of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The initial idea was to bring a "hotel of quiet elegance" to downtown Portland. Back then, guests only paid $1.50 to $2 for a room--and that included breakfast. The prices have changed, but the hotel is still elegant. The interior is filled with warm-hued early 1900s-style furniture, a Lewis and Clark mural, and mahogany-trimmed wa... read more

Great business hotel – I came to Portland for a quick un-planned business trip and was greeted by friendly and helpful valets. Check-in was great, they even offered to have my car waiting for me in the morning, without asking. The room was super, charming but modern. Great reception area in the lobby with free internet, double-sided fireplace and Starbuck's 30 feet away. What's not to like.

Wedding Day – I was the maid of honor in a wedding and I needed to get into the room early, to do all of the usual preparations. Needless to say, I was able to get into the room and get my 4 dozen rose petals on the floor. I even had some left over and the front desk lady, offered to arrange them for me because she was a florist as well. I was very thankful to the Govenor for helping me make the bride and groom's night more special.
