Awesome video! Next time our family gets to the west coast; we will have to stay! This property looks amazing inside and out! 🎉🎉

Its beautiful! I also can see the pool from my apartment but Im an Oregonian, I constantly drive by and live on a high floor near by and it’s always empty. It’s been up over a year now, and is the highest building in Portland but with the inflation from the economy and everything sky rocking for Portland in the past 10 years putting a Ritz Carlton here was not a good idea.

Debacle on whether to stay in Ritz-Carlton Portland or The Nines Hotel, depending on price and accommodation it is tough.

$1,108 / night standard rate for this room type. I’ll stay down the street at a 4 star Marriott/Hilton property for $120

In Delhi, India there is this ITC Maurya, which is a Luxury Collection by Marriott, and it is one of India’s best hotels! And there is a new Ritz Carlton coming up in Nashville in 2026!

Tbh, I couldn’t tell a difference of a toilet between 5 star or 2 star hotel in US 😂.

Josh - spectacular video! Always look forward to Saturdays! Have you ever considered booking the STARS rate through a TA to get breakfast included and a $100 credit, even though Elite members don’t get it here.

Yeah, except around the hotel is homeless tents, crazy meth heads, and crime. Not safe after dark around there! Portland went to hell post covid. Thanks mayor Wheeler!

There used to be a really cool food cart pod in the lot where they built that hotel, it was part of what made portland cool and hip; I ate there many times. Also, none of the queers, artists Or weirdos that make portland a cool place that you'd want to go, to can afford to stay at it. It's like a huge monstrosity , destroying the very thing that made pdx a cool place to begin with. The food cart pod was a million times cooler and better for the city.
