A Luxurious Retreat in Portland: A Review of The Duniway Hotel
Introduction
During our recent stay in Portland, we had the pleasure of experiencing the exceptional hospitality of The Duniway, a Hilton Boutique Hotel. Nestled in the vibrant heart of the city, this chic retreat exceeded our expectations in every aspect. From the warm welcome to the top-notch amenities, this pet-friendly hotel offers an unforgettable stay. And for budget-conscious travelers, myself included, see the note at the end of this post on which travel credit card made this luxury experience surprisingly affordable.
The Cozy Lobby
As we entered The Duniway, we were immediately captivated by the cozy lobby. With ample, comfortable seating and an inviting bar, it serves as the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploration in Portland.
Exceptional Amenities
The Duniway boasts a range of exceptional amenities, including a well-equipped gym, an indoor pool, and a tranquil open seating area known as Abigail’s Hideaway. I spent a relaxing afternoon there, enjoying a good book and the fresh air. For those seeking entertainment, there’s even a giant chess set and plenty of heat lamps to keep you cozy on chilly evenings.
Spacious and Well-Appointed Rooms
Our room at The Duniway was a spacious sanctuary, featuring a comfortable king-sized bed, a cozy seating area with a couch, a functional workspace, a sleek bathroom, and ample city views. In-room amenities such as a safe, fridge, and coffee maker added convenience to our stay. Housekeeping was available upon request and were prompt and accommodating.
Dining Excellence
Throughout our three-night stay, we took full advantage of the breakfast and dinner credits provided with our stay-package, redeemable at either Mayrose, the hotel’s onsite restaurant, or Hop City Tavern, conveniently located across the street at the Hilton Hotel.
Mayrose’s culinary delights were a highlight of our stay, with a menu that left us spoiled for choice. We savored dishes like the Keto Breakfast Bowl, Open Faced Breakfast Club, Homegrown Granola with Greek Yogurt and Berries, Blueberry Crumb Cake, Eggs Benedict with Lox, and Eggs Benedict with Sweetheart Ham. The attentive service, especially from Jerry, elevated our dining experiences and left a lasting impression.
Socializing at Hop City Tavern
We also discovered that Hop City Tavern is the ideal spot for sharing appetizers and drinks with friends, making it a fantastic addition to our stay.
Conclusion
Our stay at The Duniway was nothing short of exceptional. From the warm hospitality to the outstanding amenities and dining experiences, it left us with cherished memories of our time in Portland. We recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a remarkable stay in the city. Take a look at this blog post for a budget-friendly one day itinerary in Portland.
Note: This blog post is not sponsored; it reflects our genuine opinions and experiences. While The Duniway may not fall under the category of budget-friendly accommodations, our stay became more affordable thanks to the benefits of our AMEX Platinum card. If you are a frequent traveler, a credit card that provides travel perks is worth looking into. In a future post I’ll provide our experiences on perks that the Capital One Venture X Card and the AMEX Platinum Card can offer to enhance your travel experience.
