Residence Inn Downtown RiverPlace 

Find it: 2115 S.W. River Pkwy., Portland, Ore.; 503-552-9500

On the south end of Portland’s downtown find the Residence Inn RiverPlace, located on a triangle of land that’s been transformed over the past few decades from a forgotten brown field into a vibrant urban neighborhood. along the Willamette River waterfront. Among this location's features are a riverfront marina, luxury condos, a few hotels and good restaurants (consider a lunch of lattes and panini at Upstream Coffee across from the marina). Although the location of the Residence Inn makes for a bit of a walk to the downtown shopping district, the streetcar stops literally right outside the hotel lobby doors, and the paved waterfront esplanade is one block away. 

Tip: The digs here are extra spacious for families, with suites and full kitchens. From the warmth of the spacious indoor pool, watch the cold drizzle fall on the huge skylight above. The large, tiled pool room has a few walls of windows to let plenty of daylight in while keeping the winter weather out, and also houses a steamy hot tub and several modern lounge chairs.
