Spread across five buildings in Portland's Nob Hill/Northwest district, the Northwest Portland Hostel has grown over the years to offer something for everyone. There are dorms and private rooms, including some especially designed to accommodate families. There's even a cafe with food, drinks, happy hour specials, and live entertainment.
The location is a perfect base for exploring Portland's Nob Hill and the Pearl District, with a vibrant art scene, cobblestone streets, and of course, Portland's famous craft brewery scene.
Great stay at this hostel! Within walking distance to most major downtown attractions, clean, safe, and friendly service. Nice common areas too. My favorite touch was the little cubby spaces Thad accompanied each bed (in the dorm rooms) with an outlet.

I was very impressed with the staff & facility & will come again! As a solo woman traveler, I felt very safe and welcome! The top bunk was a bit of a challenge for me to navigate at age 65 and the bed was a bit stiff, but for the cleanliness, modern amenities & friendly environment, I will happily return!!!

If all hostels were like this, I'd probably never stay in hotels/Airbnb's. Great staff (especially the Aussie lad), great cafe (free breakfast bagel or $3 discount on menu items - always delicious). Cool building/common spaces in a nice neighborhood. Easy walk downtown. Dorms and bathrooms are spot on.
