The Benson Portland, Curio Collection by Hilton

Altro

The iconic Benson Hotel is the city’s only luxury hotel that blends the charm and civility of the old world with the elegance of contemporary European design and mindful service. Built by legendary innovator and philanthropist Simon Benson in 1912, the hotel features original Italian marble floors, Austrian crystal chandeliers, and the largest collection of Circassian walnut within one building. The Benson is truly the last of its kind, with a multi-million dollar renovation completed in 2023. Curated B&B Italia furniture now welcomes guests throughout the lobby. Our Palm Court Restaurant & Bar — with Culinary by El Gaucho — beckons guests to imbibe, gather and connect. We’ve refreshed our 12 meeting rooms and two dramatic grand ballrooms with new technology, lighting and design features with a modern simplicity, that in contrast, highlights the existing architecture of each space. Our 1,500 square foot fitness center has been expanded to include all new, state-of-the-art equipment and yoga studio. Inspired by our founder Mr. Simon Benson, The Benson seeks to cultivate the best in all of us. For over a hundred years, the hotel has catered to celebrities, leaders in business and industry, dignitaries, and nearly every U.S. president since William H. Taft. As a cultural landmark, the hotel represents a shared interest in our common good – infused with civility, gratitude and joy. With contemporary design, our 287 guest rooms include 47 junior suites, seven penthouse suites, and two Presidential Suites. Our Portland accommodations, many with sweeping views of the city, feature 55" flat-screen TVs, windows that open, plush bathrobes and slippers, in-room complimentary coffee and tea that bring the comforts of home to your travels. The Benson's Historic Stairwell showcases local history, art, and serves as a guide through all the city’s fascinations. This twelve-story mini-museum features over 160 photos and stories of Portland and its many historic landmark buildings, including the venerable Benson Hotel and its transformation over 100 years. The Historic Stairwell highlights over 50 famous landmarks in Portland, with photos dating back to 1847. It showcases the story about how Portland got its name (and other recognizable nicknames), and many fun facts about Portland, from its cultural offerings in museums, music, film and the arts, to its food scene that has become part of the city’s fabric.
