We only stayed one night at Modera before flying out of Portland, and I wish we had more nights. It's a lovely hotel, very modern in a really smart way with all original artwork, it felt very warm and welcoming. My ONLY complaint would be that the room was a little small, but that's ok, the bed was great, so was the bathroom! A great value. We got a deal which included free valet parking which was nice, most hotels in downtown Portland charge a valet fee. There is a restaurant and a great outdoor patio on the ground floor,which was really hopping, even on a Wednesday night! Good location, highly recommend.

I rarely write reviews, but my husband and I stayed at Hotel Modera and had an incredible experience. We saw a show at the Eileen Schnitzer Theatre, a 3-block walk from the hotel. We've never received better service from a hotel staff. They were very helpful with recommendations, directions, and we never wanted for anything. The front desk gave us a great recommendation for a walk to the rose garden and even remembered us when we came back several hours later. The room was nice, well-decorated, spacious, quiet and very clean. The location couldn't have been more convenient and we walked a lot during our stay. We loved the new state-of-the-art 24 Hour Fitness that the hotel partners with and appreciated that very much as well as the great bar for a drink after a long day of activity. We will definitely stay here again.

I stayed here in the winter of 2011. First I want to say that this is the first review I have ever written. I liked the general hip and modern feel of the Hotel and it was clean. I will never return to this hotel, however, because of the noise! There was a review that talked about the thinness of the walls, but I unfortunately, went any way hoping for the best especially after reading so many positive reviews. Maybe if you don't have to get up in the morning... No, even then I will never return. I don't want to have all my neighbors sounds in my room all night long! And I don't want to have to move to another room- with equally thin walls- too many good choices in Portland.

Everything about the Modera is first rate. We stayed on a Living Social package for just over a hundred bucks that included valet parking and a bottle of wine. We also had free access to a nearby spa and exercise facility, but did not take advantage of that. Maybe next time. We had dropped off our daughter at the airport at 5:30 am, stopped for some breakfast, then came to the hotel around 9 am to park our car. We were ecstatic that they actually let us check in that early. Since we had little sleep the previous night, we took a nap and woke up refreshed a couple of hours later. The room was modern and clean, the bathroom modern and well appointed, and the King bed was very comfortable. I also appreciate the free wireless internet access.

All the staff were friendly, from the bell staff and valet, to the front desk, to housekeeping. We spent the day in Portland, then took in a Broadway show at the Keller Auditorium two blocks away. What a pleasure in the dark winter to walk back to the hotel and not have to drive an hour home in the dark. We did take the opportunity to walk around the public areas, which were all inviting. Outside in the garden were raised fire pits. It was quite comfortable, even on a chilly night, to sit by the fire.

The next morning as we checked out, the staff offered to put our bags in the car while we finished our weekend retreat in downtown Portland. When we returned, our car had been brought near the entrance and was ready for us.

We did not dine at the hotel this trip, but I look forward to trying it. We will be back. The Italian menu looks interesting.

We definitely recommend this hotel. The only minor complaint I have is that the free wine was cheap California swill. In the middle of Oregon wine country, I would expect a little better. But we had enough to drink elsewhere.
