Step outside the hotel and onto the waterfront path along the Willamette. Whether walking or biking, the route offers an easy way to explore Portland with river views the entire way. In spring, the experience becomes even more memorable as cherry blossoms line sections of the river, adding a soft burst of color to the waterfront.
Throughout the year, the Willamette River comes alive with seasonal festivals and local traditions. From the Portland Rose Festival and Fleet Week to summer dragon boat races, spring cherry blossoms, and the holiday Christmas Ships Parade Portland, the waterfront offers something to experience in every season, all just moments from the hotel.
