<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/deLuxeRoom2.JPG" class="top"> If you've never heard of them before, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/Provenance%20Hotels">Provenance Hotels</a> is a small boutique chain based out of Portland, Ore., with just five hotels in Oregon, Washington, and Tennessee (not to mention a <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2010/10/4/225540/726/hotels/Trouble_is_Brewing_at_the_Hotel_Frank">new location in San Francisco</a> at the Hotel Frank). Last week, we got the opportunity to check out two of their Portland hotels, the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Lucia/local/1804">Hotel Lucia</a> and the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+deLuxe/local/891">Hotel deLuxe</a>. Located blocks from each other in Portland's steadily growing downtown area, both hotels are housed in converted buildings from the 1900s, and both offer clean, artsy rooms with incredible service. In fact, if it weren't for the added glitziness and brighter colors of the deLuxe, we might have had a hard

Portland: Cubicle Dreamin': All I Want on Vacation is Books

<![CDATA[ Cubicle Dreamin' is a feature in which we ask the hotel mavens to take some time out of their busy work day, surf the Internet, and tell us what hotel they wish they could beam themselves to right that very second--all on the slave driving companies dime, of course. Oh, like these people aren't surfing aimlessly anyway--at least now their purposeless clicking will be cobbled together into useful hotel stories--we hope. Have a destination hotel you are just dying to leave your cube for? <a href="tips@hotelchatter.com">Send the story our way</a>. In this episode, Contributing Editor <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/user/amandak/stories">AmandaK</a> has a bookworm getaway.

Portland: Hotel deLuxe: Instant Classic, Just Add Guests!

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3/deLuxe_Portland.jpg" class="imgborder"> Downtown Portland's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+deLuxe/local/891">Hotel deLuxe</a> (formerly the Mallory) opened last year and has quickly established itself as the Portland downtown hotel for business travelers, well-to-do parents visiting their kids in Portland, folks who want to stay downtown, and even locals. The hotel was completely renovated into an up-to-date, yet old Hollywood style, hotel. What does that mean? The mood, the lighting, and the bar and restaurant all feel as exclusive as we imagine 1940's Hollywood felt, while the hotel itself accommodates the demanding guest of 2007 with iHome for iPods, flat screen HD televisions, super attentive service, and by welcoming pets. So you get to bring your dog, watch Sportscenter or CNN in HD, and

And today Amy over at <a href="http://www.newyorkology.com">NewYorkology</a> sent in her pics from stay inside a room at the Ace which had a giant dripping cat stenciled on the wall.She paid about $200 for this room which was called a Superior Deluxe Back--back meaning "back of the hotel" which is quieter. Her only gripes were that you had to walk downstairs for coffee in the AM and that the $20 parking was in a lot far away and the attendant didn't tell her how much it cost.Meanwhile, we wanna know if you have stayed somewhere <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/hotelchatter%20reviews">HotelChatter has

We spent a couple nights at the Avalon Hotel and Spa this past weekend. Of course we filmed it and dissected our experience to feed your voracious appetite for hotel voyeurism.
