"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.

"San Francisco has the Phoenix. Los Angeles has the Standard Hotel. Now Portland has the rock star–worthy Jupiter Hotel."

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."
Rough Guide
"Youth-oriented motel flush with arty minimalism, a party atmosphere and quirky rooms. The uber-cool presence of the adjoining Doug Fir Lounge makes it worthwhile."
Fodor's
"The hip, creative, and adventurous flock to this contemporary boutique hotel, formerly a motor inn, adjacent to a restaurant/bar and one of the city's most popular concert venues."

"Rooms named after famous musicians who have hit the stage at the Ballroom...staying here gives you same-night access to otherwise sold-out shows. Al's Den in the basement hosts more live music"
