    Desk Area In Our Rm

    Since school was out for me on that Monday for Dr Martin Luther King Day, we took advantage of my long weekend to visit our daughter. As much as my daughter loved living in downtown Portland and has enough street smarts, she wanted to moved out of the city to escape from people doing drugs on the street, crime, etc.- and headed to the suburbs. No longer did we have to look for a downtown hotel like we used to when we visited her in the past. That's when our daughter suggested The Orenco in Hillsboro because it's not: (1)the typical 'hotel' and (2) it's really close to downtown Portland anyway. Margie and Richard own The Orenco with several units+rooms that are thematically different from the next. The check-in process to our (first) room worked out fine because The Orenco uses push button pad locks and since we landed in PDX at almost midnight on a Friday, we didn't have to go to the 'front desk' or fumble around with a traditional key. Our first ground floor room had a few steps leading to it with an upbeat style, funky retro turquoise microwave, full kitchenette, a comfy bed, stripe comforter, and a spacious feel- but it wasn't what we paid for. We slept through the night fine- but texted the owner about a room change hubs initially paid for and simultaneously mentioned some busy feet early in the morning. The owner was incredibly apologetic about the little ones running and we were in our intended room in no time. Thank you! Unlike the first room, this one (also on the ground floor) has the French doors we wanted, white bedding, small fridge, TV, walk-in shower and other amenities- with a warmer overall feel. We totally enjoyed our stay! The owners stand by their brand and made for a wonderful destination spot while we visited our daughter and her partner settle in their new home.

    So, the hotel owner responded to my Google review regarding the platform bed being unsafe, stating that he/she will correct the issue. However, a similar complaint in a review several years ago about the same issue by several other guests with the platform bed protrusion and hitting their shins, similar to my experience. Yet until now it has not been corrected.

    The Orenco definitely has the bed & breakfast feel. First impression is great. We stayed in room 4B, the King Jacuzzi. When we got there the room was very cold so a space heater was put in. It didn't work, so I had to call to get a different one. It worked and heated up the room. They offer free movies to watch, so we picked out a few, but the DVD player didn't work. We called expecting someone to come and fix it. Instead we were told sorry, watch tv instead. The snacks are nice. Wish pastries were fresher, but juice, yogurt and granola bars were good. Nice, homey feel. Not sure if I would stay here again.

    We stayed here for our wedding night and had a wonderful time. Check-in was easy, the lobby was inviting and our room was beautiful. It was so quiet we never heard any of the other guests. The picturesque setting in Hillsboro was beautiful. We highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back!

    So awesome! Perfect for girls weekend away!

    See all

I particularly love the Koi pond in the lobby. When was the last time you saw that? The rooms were comfy, amazing tub/shower area. AC works great. There were only 2 pillows on the King bed...so we had to ask for another. The pillows could have been better, but they were acceptable. The large Japanese bath pools were kept at 102 degrees. One for men, one for women. Locker areas stocked with plenty of towels, showers and high-quality shampoo, conditioner, body wash. My only surprise based on the listing was that these are not "hot springs". They are shallow, warm bath soaking pools. I think the misrepresentation is due to language/translation difficulties. They are in the process of building a nice size outdoor Japanese bath which will be co-ed. Will be back when that opens for sure! Breakfast was delicious. Don't miss one of their made to order omelets! The sausage side was much better than the ham. The cost of breakfast is not included...but overall, the stay was a good value. Highly recommend!

The shower with a soaking tub was awesome, but you have to step all the way in to turn the water on, and then you have to dodge it on your way out. The door had a pretty bad leak at the bottom too, the typical leak you see with glass shower doors. Leaked out of the door and made a beeline for the carpet. We did not try the onsen. The restaurant was the highlight, *amazing* food and cool staff. I'd go back for the food alone. I ordered a wagyu filet for dinner and grilled salmon for breakfast. A young blonde man helped us, I asked for the name of the Japanese sauce and he wrote it down and handed me the ingredient list. Awesome guy, he deserves a raise.

Our king room was spacious, comfortable, and dog-friendly. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches for our pup, including food and water bowls in the room and a welcome treat upon arrival. One of the perks of staying overnight is access to the outdoor soaking pool, which is always a highlight. The property has plenty to enjoy, including several bars, a main restaurant, a spa, and even a movie theater. There's enough to keep you entertained without ever needing to leave the grounds. We're big fans of McMenamins in general and, as Tripsters, we're always happy to visit their unique properties. Grand Lodge continues to be one of our favorites. The staff is consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful. At times they seem a bit understaffed and can get busy, but the employees always do their best to provide great service and make guests feel taken care of. Overall, it's a fun and relaxing place to stay, and we look forward to coming back again next year.

As described on their website, "the stately manor is filled with one-of-a-kind rooms, a beguiling ghost, spa, soaking pool, theater, games and restaurants serving handcrafted goodness." You were provided a map and wandered from the attic to the basement. Each floor was an exciting new adventure with pictures, paintings of/by previous guests, and fascinating historical commentary. We ate lunch there and it was delicious. Their menu is quite varied with specials each day and even vegan offerings. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and purchase several things from the on-site gift shop. Parking was easy, employees were friendly and helpful, and the hours we spend wandering the mansion were a fantastic way to spend a rainy afternoon. I would even return when we're next in the area because I know there's probably much that we missed.

However I was refused the $50/10,000 point credit for a 3night stay, even though my stay was 3 nights. Fun side activity: I also had several deposits held on my card - one for each night - and had to check in & out every day. Our room had loud, pounding music all day & night - we thought it was a neighbor; turns out we were above the pool. I was told how sorry they were, and that was it. We had to try to work & take meetings with a constant, loud bass in the background, as well as try to sleep through it. After several texts and complaints, on the third and last night, somebody finally turned it off at 7PM. Not worth the comfy bed & free juice.

He asked how we were doing and so forth. Cons - there was a male individual at the counter speaking to him before we walked in.....without a shirt and only wearing dark colored boxer briefs. Not something that should have been acceptable. Other Pros - Breakfast was good and well stocked. In addition to a make your own waffle station, there were bagels and yogurt, as well as a warm food bar with scrambled eggs, bacon, French toast and biscuits with gravy. Juice options and coffee/tea rounded the corner. Beds were a plus. Firm mattress and supportive pillows. The main issue was the guy wearing nothing but his briefs at the front desk when we came in.
