Travel gurus say that the best way to get to know a city is through a local — and if you don’t already know any Portlanders, a friendly bed and breakfast owner is your next-best bet. Whether you prefer an opulent Craftsman with a private wine cellar or a cozy, budget-friendly option near plenty of attractions, Portland has the B&B to suit your travel style.
Where to Find Portland Bed & Breakfasts
Portland bed and breakfasts offer an opportunity to get a local’s perspective. These lodging options also offer modern amenities in a comfortable, unique space. And never underestimate the bed and breakfast owner’s ability to give insider information on the city’s best restaurants, nightlife and attractions.
A traditional bed and breakfast or B&B usually serves a home-cooked morning meal. Unlike Airbnb and vacation rentals that offer hundreds of stay options that range in type from condos, guesthouses, and single bedrooms, B&Bs tend to only offer guest rooms or larger suites within a single home.
While the amenities will vary from place to place, most Portland bed and breakfasts offer complimentary wifi, coffee and tea, breakfast and snacks, TV, hair dryers and occasionally, parking, laundry and other guest services. Check each B&B’s website to see the specifics and learn more.
