The room was clean and we loved having a fireplace in our room. Parking was easy. A few of the staff members were friendly but others were a bit less welcoming. We wish our room could have been cleaned earlier in the day.

The property is beautiful, the staff is kind, and the rooms are spacious and clean. It was great to have a safe place to park the car while having so many things to do within walking distance. Being able to grab a quick breakfast before heading out was great too! We loved our stay here!

Top notch stay from top to bottom. The building is beautiful, the amenities at the pantry are incredible, and the service was delightful. I highly recommend this hotel as a cozy stay in Portland.

Wish they had a liquor license and could do a cocktail hour in addition to a breakfast service. Wish they had just a tad more breakfast options. Really wish they had a key pad and front door access! LOVED the fire places in every room. Property manager was lovely and friendly. Loved the snacks available and variety.

There was no real ocean view. Staff seemed available by text. The breakfast wasn’t out until 8:00 so unfortunately we never got to experience it. The room was clean, bed comfortable but outlets in bathroom were a safety hazard as they smoked when using blow dryer and straightener. We liked the idea of this hotel. The price did not match our experience.

This is a beautiful historic property on a quiet street close to the hustle and bustle of downtown Portland and the waterfront strip. You get historic charm with all the modern amenities and comforts. We loved it!

We are sad to have only spent one night at Blind Tiger ahead of our trip back to Ohio the following day. The hotel, quite literally, took my breathe away. It was gorgeous, and immaculately curated. The staff was fantastic and had great recommendations for how to spend our one day in the city. It was quiet, clean, and in an area of the city that was more residential (so good for us!). We cannot wait to come back.
