Querky and cute!

A very querky and cute hotel! Fun, very comfortable, memorable. Staff all around were very pleasant and professional. Valet parking gave us peace of mind for overnight parking. We ate at the restaurant omsite and while the portions were a little smaller than we thought, the food was outstanding. Would definitely stay here again.

The staff was nice, but they were clearly under staffed. My room wasn't ready at three pm. We came back at five thirty, and it still wasn't ready. The bed was awkward and it felt like you were laying downhill.

The Grand Stark isn't for everyone. First, you need to factor in that because of its location, there are many homeless people in the area. This is just the reality of a hotel in downtown Portland. Second, this is not a shiny, ultra-modern hotel. The real wood floors are uneven and a bit creaky, the bed is oddly close to the ground, and the sink is oddly located. The rooms are small but somehow feel a bit a larger than they actually are. Travelers who can put these minor issues aside will find this to be a charming hotel where everything works really well. I'm a stickler for plumbing, and the shower and drains all performed far better than those at the $300/night Hilton where I stayed recently. The internet is fast (~100Mb/s), the hot water is hot, and the elevators are roomy and reliable. As a plus, the adjacent Grand Amari restaurant is a welcome oasis of fine dining in this neighborhood. Above all, though the staff members are top notch -- friendly, helpful, and genuine. They really make you feel welcome and seem to be perfect hosts for this atypical hotel. If you can get past its imperfections, you will find the Hotel Grand Stark to be a welcoming, comfortable, and delightful place to stay.

Two nights for a work trip. The front desk attendant was AMAZING, so friendly and genuine. He rocked. But the hotel itself… less so: the front check-in area has a canvas ceiling to protect from… rain? Falling stuff? Weird. The bar/cafe is prohibitively expensive. My room was ok but had some downsides: the floor is super repurposed/old wood, which may be eco friendly but didn’t feel/look wildly clean. The shower was clean, thankfully. Since I was on a work trip, I had to use the odd little table-desk set into the back of the headboard, but it’s at an odd (low) height, and the one chair they gave was a rickety rattan diner chair… so the overall impact was slouched shoulders and numb legs from the chair’s seat. They didn’t tidy my room (the one full day I was there between the 2 nights), which also meant my little tea capsules (no coffee) weren’t replenished for the little Nespresso machine. Oh. Last note: there is a pretty significant homeless population and the external walls/windows (I was on the 3rd floor facing East) let in A LOT of noise overnight. Obviously an awful situation, but bring ear plugs if you want to sleep. Sorry :/ So, overall it was FINE but just a lot of little unfortunate drawbacks.
