My wife and I stayed at Portland's White House on the first night of our honeymoon trip through the Pacific Northwest, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. I had actually come across Portland's White House in a travel guide from several years ago and was excited to find that it had recently reopened as a bed and breakfast just in time for our trip. When Kim and Melissa learned we were celebrating our honeymoon, they went above and beyond to make our stay special. After a brief conversation before our arrival, they thoughtfully put together a welcome package with local chocolates and bath accessories, beautiful flowers, and a bottle of wine. It all made for such a wonderful and warm welcome and start to our honeymoon! The property itself is beautiful and grand, with stunning stained-glass windows, woodwork, and historic character throughout. It was a pleasure to just walk around and admire the craftsmanship and grounds during our stay. Breakfast was served to order in a gorgeous dining room and was excellent. The piano was a joy to spend some time playing as well. PWH was the perfect place to spend our one night in Portland during our honeymoon trip. We are very grateful for the hospitality and care that was put into our stay. If we find ourselves back in Portland in the future, we will absolutely stay here again. Thank you Kim and Melissa!
Excellent bed & breakfast! Our host Melissa was so charming & helpful. One of the best vacation experiences I've ever had. Room was quiet & comfortable. Breakfast options were delicious & the house itself is so beautiful. Whenever I can come back for another stay I will do so immediately!
It was truly a pleasure staying at the Portland's White House. The architecture and history are breathtaking gems you experience as soon as you step on the property. The rooms are cozy and elegant with modern bathroom upgrades that leave you wanting for nothing. Portland's White House offers comfortable and quiet common areas so if you are in need of working space, you do not need to leave the premises. The service is great! They anticipate your needs and have things prepared before you have to ask. If you are in need, they are responsive around the clock. Melissa is amazing and her energy and smile made the environment warm and welcoming. I look forward to experiencing a different room on my next visit to Portland!
