"The Jupiter is the hub of Portland's indie rock scene, and you're missing the point if you book a room here just to get some sleep."

The lounge draws a steady swarm of foot traffic, so request a room at the opposite end of the property.

If you want to get any sleep at all, be sure to ask for a room overlooking the “quiet courtyard.”

"Once a nondescript motor-court motel, this is one of the most fashionable hotels in Portland, with a bold, stylish look and posh amenities such as luxurious linens and fine toiletries."

Afar Magazine
