February 22, 2026Scarlet CUnexpectedly luxurious with super cool staff!
Our stay was short, but so wonderful! The location is great. Walkable to everywhere we needed to go, including our show at the beautiful Crystal Ballroom. I was shocked at how fancy the atmosphere was, considering that this was the cheapest option we looked at. Excellent value! We especially loved the super deep bathtubs. I would’ve liked a kitchenette, but the mini fridge was sufficient for our short visit. We got two rooms, which were initially booked several floors apart, but the wonderful front desk admin, Amanda Lemon, was able to arrange for us to right across the hall from each other. Amanda really was the best part of our stay. She went above and beyond to make our experience as pleasant as it could’ve possibly been, and we were delighted every time we got to cross her path! We would absolutely love to stay here again next time we are in the area.

Best service
My experience at the Benson was amazing from the start!! We checked in and were helped by the wonderful Amanda L and she took the best care of us. The complimentary robes made bath time exquisite, valet was quick and friendly, and atmosphere absolutely stunning. But I seriously wouldn’t be leaving this review if it wasn’t for the amazing service we received from Amanda. Thank you so so much for making our stay amazing!

Refreshing change from most hotel service.
The service at every level of this hotel was impeccable! Every employee was totally accommodating. Gessca and Katie at the front dest were above and beyond anything you would expect. I will definitely return for my next stay in Portland.

The Benson hotel Portland
I had the most wonderful stay at The Benson Hotel. From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel genuinely welcome and completely looked after. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful — stylish, elegant, and full of character. Every detail feels thoughtfully done. A special thank you to Bobby, the waiter, who was simply amazing. Kind, attentive, and effortlessly professional, he went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. Nothing was too much trouble, and his warm personality made the whole experience even more special. It’s rare to find a place that combines stunning surroundings with such heartfelt service, but The Benson truly does.

Amazing
From the moment we arrived at The Benson Portland, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Our check-in was seamless and remarkably efficient. The front desk team immediately recognized my Hilton Honors status, which set a welcoming and professional tone right away. The representative assisting us was warm, polished, and genuinely pleasant to speak with — the kind of hospitality that makes you feel valued before you even reach your room. The excellence continued in the restaurant, where John, our server, truly elevated the entire evening. He was an absolute pleasure — attentive without hovering, personable without being intrusive, and clearly passionate about delivering outstanding service. John went above and beyond in every way, anticipating needs before we expressed them and ensuring every detail of our dining experience was flawless. His professionalism and kindness made our meal memorable and added a personal touch that is rare to find. The Benson exemplifies timeless elegance paired with world-class hospitality. We left genuinely impressed and look forward to returning. Highly recommend to anyone seeking a refined, first-class experience in Portland.
