I loved that this hotel was walking distance to Powell’s. I also thought it was really cool that they have gear to rent for free in the lobby, including bikes, Roku boxes for the TV, Polaroid cameras, and more!

We have been staying at Zags for over 6 years. We love the improvements that have been made and the convenience of bringing our Sunny along for her daily walks. There’s lots of LOVE at Zags! Feels like home away from home.

We spent two nights on a busy summer weekend in downtown Portland and we were very impressed not only the hotel but everywhere we walked how safe we felt despite the years reading about downtown Portland. Highly recommend the hotel it is fun and staying downtown. So much to do and we walked a lot of miles around the areas on both sides of the river and into the hills of the city and down to and back from the railroad station

I once lived in Portland and now return on a regular basis to visit family. The Hotel Zags is a good fit for us and conveniently located. Yo can walk to Powell's in 20 minutes or less and there are plenty of interesting shops along the way.

Absolutely our new favorite place to stay. The staff is top notch. We even received a small pet packet with a toy, treat, poop bags, and stuffed animal. We loved the vibe of the hotel, it was clear all are welcome and safe. The only very small suggestion would be to improve the breakfast. But this was minor considering everything other wonderful part.
