About this property

Welcome to Inn at the Convention Center

Located in a busy commercial area of Portland, the Inn at the Convention Center offers simple, no-frills accommodations with some rooms featuring city views. The hotel provides essential amenities such as free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and paid parking, along with accessible and pet-friendly options. While the property lacks facilities like a pool, fitness center, or airport shuttle, it maintains a smoke-free environment suitable for practical stays.

The setting is convenient for visitors attending events at nearby venues including the Moda Center and the convention center, both within walking distance. Guests appreciate easy city access via the adjacent light rail line, making wider exploration straightforward. There is a modest fee for parking, which is secure, but breakfast is not provided on-site.

The rooms are clean with basic amenities. Though a bit outdated the rooms are comfortable. The price per night is fair. It's close to certain venues (Moda Center, Convention Center, Wonder Ballroom) making it a great choice for overnight stays.

My fiancé and I had a concert we were attending and we needed a place to crash at afterwards. We made reservations for this Inn and it was the perfect place for us! It’s older but clean, our room was very comfortable and we had a nice view of the surrounding area and it is conveniently close to the Moda Center. Staff was welcoming and attentive! This will be our go to from now on when we swing by Portland.

Great value. Walking distance to Moda Center and on the light rail line so the entire city is accessible from the front door. Nice view of the city. Beds were comfortable and room was clean. Lack of amenities which is reflected in the price. Needs some work (bathroom was outdated and in need of repair) but staff was great. We only stayed for one night so it was suitable for a place to sleep. Hotel charges $17 to park and the parking lot is unsecured and not convenient to access from the front door. 4 stars for service due to that. The front desk staff was great.

Love this place. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Keep in mind, you do get what you pay for. The hotel is right next to a railway, so you will hear that all night long. It is an older building that needs attention, but it's clean. If you're needing a SAFE and affordable place to stay a night or a few, I recommend Inn at the Convention Center

Went to a concert at Moda, grabbed a room at the last minute, staff was great very accommodating and helpful. Check in was a breeze, parking secure but costs extra, room a little dated and had an odor but for what I paid it was well worth it! Would recommend and stay again.

It was clean and inviting. Being clean is so important and I was impressed by the Inn at the Convention Centers cleanliness. I cannot sleep if the rooms are filthy. Great location it was a ten minute walk to the Moda Center and the best concert of my life and I saw LED Zeppelin in the seventies. Linkin Park puts on a great show and then it was a short walk home to sweet dreams.
