The Bar/Lounge at Kimpton RiverPlace Hotel

"Three Degrees, the hotel’s restaurant, serves Pacific Northwest cuisine using locally sourced products, and the hotel’s outdoor bar area can be a fun mob scene during happy hour on a warm afternoon or evening"

"Three Degrees Restaurant and Bar turns out top-notch regional northwestern fare and has romantic water views"

"Off the airy lobby, Three Degrees Bar and Grill serves first-rate contemporary fare with river views"

"Each of the rooms features a flat-panel TV with DVD player, Bose or Boston Acoustics sound station, mini-bar, complimentary wireless Internet access, spacious work desk, luxe bathrobes, complimentary newspaper delivery, yoga mat and Kimpton umbrella, as well as views of the river and/or downtown"

"The hotel itself exudes a craftsman-style design, and the top-notch restaurant (think grilled wild-line caught salmon or roasted Portobello Wellington) has a swank bar with those same river views"
