Eco-Friendly Portland Hotel

The RiverPlace Hotel offers a luxurious retreat with access to both an invigorating urban buzz and an enchanting natural landscape. We love the Pacific Northwest for many reasons, and the community and natural beautify around us are hard to beat. Here at The RiverPlace Hotel, we set to work making our boutique hotel as environmentally friendly as possible. Take a peek into the green practices at the RiverPlace Hotel:

Clean The World

Thanks to our partnership with Clean the World, unused portions of our bar soaps don’t get tossed into the trash. Instead, Clean the World recycles them to provide hygiene kits for impoverished communities worldwide, as well as areas recovering from natural disasters.

Clean Air

Guestroom HVAC units filter fresh outdoor air to create a comfortable atmosphere. Units are motion-activated, which limits unnecessary energy expenditure.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

At RiverPlace Hotel, guess what happens to all the paper, plastics, glass, cardboard, crates, pallets and other materials that can be recycled? They get recycled. Not sent to the landfill. In-room recycling bins make it easy for you to reduce, reuse and then recycle.

Farm Fresh

We source nearby farms and other food purveyors to reduce the carbon emissions of long-haul travel and to support our local economy. The bonus to you, our guest, is incredibly fresh cuisine.
