How can I get cheap hotels in Portland?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Portland

  1. If you're looking to travel to Portland on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $66. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $153. Staying a short amount of time in Portland is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.

  2. When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Portland, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.

  3. When booking cheap hotel rooms in Portland, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.

  4. When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Portland, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Portland cost?
Budget hotel prices in Portland vary, but you can find a great deal from $66 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—off-peak and mid-week stays are typically cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Portland is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking cheap hotels in Portland, the Lloyd District and areas around 82nd Avenue offer some of the most affordable accommodation options. These areas provide good value while still being accessible to the city's main attractions.

The Lloyd District, located just across the Willamette River from downtown, boasts a number of hotels that cater to business travellers and conventions, often leading to more competitive pricing on weekends or during off-peak seasons. Solo travellers can easily access downtown Portland via the MAX Light Rail, which runs frequently through the neighbourhood. This area is also near the Oregon Convention Centre and Moda Centre, providing entertainment options.

Further east, along 82nd Avenue, you'll find a higher concentration of motels and budget-friendly hotels. While this area is more car-dependent, public transportation options, including bus lines, are available to connect you to other parts of the city.
When is the most affordable time to visit Portland?
The most affordable time to visit Portland is typically during the winter months, from November to February, excluding the holiday season. This period sees lower demand for flights and accommodations, leading to more budget-friendly prices.

Solo travellers will find that airfare and hotel rates drop significantly after the peak summer and early autumn tourist seasons. The cooler, often rainy weather during these months means fewer crowds at popular attractions, allowing for a more relaxed and cost-effective experience. Many local businesses also offer off-season specials and discounts.

While the weather might be damp, there are still plenty of free or low-cost activities to enjoy. Solo travellers can explore the city's numerous parks, like Forest Park, or visit one of the many independent bookstores and coffee shops for a cozy afternoon.
What free activities should we do in Portland?
For couples and solo travellers visiting Portland, a variety of free activities allow you to experience the city's unique charm without spending a dime. You can immerse yourselves in the city's natural beauty, artistic expressions, and vibrant setting.

Start by exploring the extensive trails and lush greenery of Forest Park, one of the largest urban forests in the United States, offering miles of hiking and walking paths that provide stunning views and a refreshing escape. Alternatively, stroll through the tranquil Portland Japanese Garden, which offers free admission on specific days or for early morning visitors, allowing you to appreciate its serene landscapes and traditional architecture.

Art enthusiasts can discover the vibrant street art and numerous public murals scattered throughout neighbourhoods like Alberta Arts District and Hawthorne. These areas are great for a leisurely walk, offering a visual feast of creative expression and unique local shops to browse. For a more structured art experience, many galleries in the Pearl District offer free admission, showcasing diverse contemporary works.

Music lovers can often find free live performances in various parks and public spaces, especially during warmer months. Keep an eye out for local event listings to catch a free concert or festival.
Is it cheaper to book a Portland hotel and flight package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect vacation package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Portland for you.
