The Ace is a reinvented classic downtown hotel, restoring a sense of history and place while reinterpreting those details for a sense of modern bohemia.  Ace Hotel Portland occupies an entire city block, built in 1912, situated in the heart of an emerging neighborhood once known as Portland’s Gay Triangle, bordering on the Pearl District. Many of its original details, such as the deep cast-iron roll-top baths and capacious sinks, have been retained and refurbished. With its large windows and high ceilings, the 79-room hotel is characterized by ample proportions, luminous spaces and a reassuring sense of early twentieth century solidity.  Mural by local artists decorate the walls, low VOC paints cover the surfaces, and salvaged furnishings fill the rooms.
