Hotel deLuxe

To step into Hotel De Luxe is to be transported to Hollywood’s golden age. One could be excused for expecting Humphrey Bogart to step through the doors and order a dirty martini at the hotel bar, the Driftwood Room. Not only has it been ranked one of Condé Nast Traveler’s “Reader’s Choice Top 100 U.S. Hotels” but it offers top of the line canine care, too. Their entire third floor is set aside for pets and their human companions. Even a doggie menu is offered, with the gourmet selection available through room service (mmm…Beef Liver and Bacon Balls). But it doesn’t stop there—in-house services of doggie massages, acupuncture, and even a pet psychic are available. Be sure to check out the hotel’s blog archive, where the employees give great insider tips on how to enjoy the city. hoteldeluxeportland.com
