Nordic Motel - Portland

This hotel is in a mixed neighborhood, but truly safe for a woman traveling alone. The motel is truly an old style motel. One story, two rows of rooms perpendicular to the well used road, and one row parallel to the road at the back of the property. The price is very reasonable, the room is pristine, it includes a dorm-sized refer, wall AC, front openable […] window, microwave, flat screen with DVD/CD player. There is free wireless and morning coffee, ice, and drink vending machine. The place is quiet, convenient to the 205 hiway with some restaurants and a great German Bakery down the street. While my family is SW, this place is well remodeled and well worth the price to have a place to sleep. The airport is the next exit so it's very convenient for a layover. Loved it! Read more

I would stay at this motel again. As woman traveling alone, I felt safe. The room was clean and comfortable. I felt the room was a real value.

This motel exceeded my expectations. For $50 a night I wasn't expecting much, but the room was really clean, nice decorating, well-kept place and very friendly staff. I have to go to PDX again soon and will be staying here again!

Love this motel! I read the reviews and the rate is high, so I chose to stay in this motel. Cheap but high quality, very friendly staff and everything is just clean! The quality is higher than my expectation with this cheap price. Will definitely stay here again if I visit Portland again.

Check in and check out was fast, friendly, and easy. The location is clean and quiet and near the freeway. All in all I would definitely stay there again for an inexpensive, nice night in portland.

Just finished a four-night business stay here, my fourth or fifth over the last year. The court-style property is always well-maintained and the owners always friendly and helpful. About the same distance from downtown as the airport hotels, but an older property on the old Hwy 30. The neighborhood a light-density mix of older industrial/ commercial/ […] residential is quiet at night except for the occasional passing freight train. The property is well-lighted and feels secure. About a mile west to light rail and the freeways or another four miles west on Sandy Blvd to downtown. Read more

A very good price for what you get! The room was not spacious, but certainly big enough to make the stay comfortable. The room was clean and the staff was friendly.

My significant other and I enjoyed our stay at the Nordic Motel. The front desk staff was friendly. The room was well-kept, clean and comfortable with a bed, hair dryer, small space to hang clothes, TV, DVD, desk and chairs. There was no noise and we both slept well. It was easy to get to the freeway from the motel and it was only located about a 10 […] minute drive from the Pearl District. It was a great and affordable place to stay in Portland! Read more

This was the perfect hotel for an overnight stay. It was absolutely immaculate and had everything we needed including a microwave, refrigerator and hair dryer. I would highly suggest this motel to anyone traveling to the Portland area. The owners are wonderful as well. We had a very late check-in and they were so pleasant even in the wee hours of the […] morning. Read more

I went on a trip from Seattle to Crater Lake, and decided to spend a night in Portland to convene with friends who live there. Nordic Motel is a great deal for the price. The room I had was clean, relatively spacious, had free wifi and a nice warm shower. The bed was acceptable. I'm 24, so I don't need a great bed to sleep well, but if you're older […] and stiffer then you may want to spend more money. I tried to watch cable on the HDTV, but it didn't work well, though I didn't care enough to ask the staff to fix it. All in all, if you want a good room at a relatively low price, then Nordic Motel will fit the bill. Read more

For $50 a night the room was a total steal. It was our first time in portland and we had no trouble getting back and forth from the hotel to downtown or other neighborhoods. Very clean, very comfortable. Totally worth every penny and more.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I travel all the time for work and play and usually stay in hotels or condos so admit I'm a little jaded. Since this was a short getaway weekend I decided to check out all properties in Portland, starting with the lowest price on up. What an absolute find! If you're looking to be downtown Portland, this isn't it. Also if you're familiar with Portland, […] you know stretches of Sandy Blvd can be quite sketchy. This property is east of the I-205 freeway so unfamiliar to me but still easily accessible to the airport. It is sparsely populated (no SBUX, restaurants, etc.) so not sure if walking alone would be a good idea. The motel is either brand new or recently renovated as it is quite beautiful inside and out, for a motel. This place puts a lot of those big chains to shame. Small rooms but totally functional and very nicely decorated. Did I mention how spotless it was? What an absolute find. I highly recommend for cleanliness, amenities, service, and super low price.

Clean as a whistle and only five minutes from the airport...a great place to stay if you have an early flight out of Portland...also close to the freeway if you need to get any place else...would certainly come back

Motel was much nicer than I expected.. Clean, hospitable and complimentary cable, wifi, and dvd player was a plus!! Would recommend and will definitely stay again!!! Thank u Nordic for the experience!!!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We arrived late and left early. The desk attendant worked with us to make it as easy as possible. Everything was clean and comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was a comfortable stay but more of an old style motel than we were expecting. The room was comfortable, clean and well-maintained, but a little on the small side. The parking lot was narrow and hard to navigate. The staff was friendly even at 3am when we checked out for an early start and I had to turn in a "real key" and get back a $20 bill deposit. […] I slept soundly but my wife heard the train and the man on the other side of the thin walls who was trying to be quiet but was sick and coughing.

Very small but clean room near the airport, which is where we needed to stay. We had to come in very late at night, but staff was still pleasant. Most comfortable mattress we had during the entire week-long trip at a variety of hotels.

I stayed there for a few weeks. They are willing to provide a weekly rate that is affordable. It is centrally located to my work.

I enjoyed my stay at Nordic. The price was affordable, and the room was clean and comfortable. The building is not new, but it is well maintained. The Nordic is conveniently located a couple of miles from the Portland Airport, and has easy access to Interstate 205. Management is friendly and it is readily apparent that they place a high priority on […] customer service. I will definitely stay here again next time I need a hotel in Portland. Read more

Based on the reviews, we decided to give this M&P motel a try because the price was so good. It did not disappoint and we definitely agree with the many positive reviews! Very clean, really nice decor for a budget room, tiled shower surround, granite type countertop for bath, microwave, fridge, flat screen tv, even a DVD player if you want to rent a […] movie! Bed was more comfortable than the one we had the night before in a 5 star hotel. All in all very impressed. Would definitely stay there again. Read more

Loved it. Will definately stay again! Nice quant room for a very giving price. My boyfriend and I hit all the Portland area attractions and then some so it was an easy drive everywhere. Location was in a residential area so it was pretty quiet and we felt safe. Very comfortable bed, I could have slept for days! Very friendly staff.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The staff are friendly and very helpful. The room was comfortable, up to date and clean. The rooms are set back from the main road, so there is no outside noise. Conveniently located close to gas stations, my car drop off and the airport. Easy drive to restaurants. I look forward to staying again when I travel to Portland. Any past problems have been […] resolved. Read more

These owners really love their motel, and it shows. As retired folks watching our $$, can't afford most 5 star places, and feel The Nordic Motel has earned all 5 from us. We never expected such care, cleanliness, and integrity. We loved it here so much that we took our original 2 night booking and extended it to the full 5 days we were in Portland. Bonus: […] it is just a short walk to the bus stop- Bus #21 on to the MAX train at Parkrose- Red line, and you can be at the airport or in Portland in minutes. By catching the #65 (also at Parkrose) you can hop over to Vancouver, WA for the day. And if you rent a car; Mt St Helens, Mt Hood, and the Dalles are also easy trips. Having a clean, safe and friendly place to come back to helped make our trip fabulous. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is a great and inexpensive place to stay if you are passing through the area. It isn't close to the downtown attractions but it is clean and the staff is very friendly. Can't get better in that area and the price is definately right.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My third five-day stay here this year for business in Portland after staying at larger properties closer to the airport. Small family-run motel, well-maintained. Friendly staff. Inexpensive. Commercial industrial neighborhood, but quiet at night, area feels safe. Restaurants along Sandy Blvd starting about a mile west and along Airport Way to the north. […] Downtown is about 15-20 minutes via Sandy Blvd or I-84. No transit at the motel but Parkrose light rail station about two miles west on Sandy Blvd. Read more

above average of similar budget inns. Higher prices for weekend are silly used out of the season.

it was a nice simple hotel right next to the airport. Superb for the price!

The motel has been recently renovated and the room was very clean. The room had cable TV with movie channels, a full size refridgerator, microwave, and stove. The owners/management were very pleasant. I'd recommend this motel to anyone.

For the price, the quality & cleanliness of the room was phenomenal.

Very friendly staff and our room was very nice. It's nothing fancy but if fripperies dont matter to you it's fine. It is on one story and your parking place is right in front of your room.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We had a very clean room. The staff was friendly and quick to pick up on most of the things we needed in the maid service department. We did have the maid miss refilling our tissues, extra toilet paper, and emptying the trash on one day, but this was quickly remedied within minutes of us calling the front desk. The walls in our room were paper thin, […] you can definitely hear muffled conversations (or um, nightly noises) easily, even with the tv on. You can also hear the water of your neighbors shower or toilet. This is because while the showers provide plenty of water, it's almost too much due to the noise it produces. Even with the bathroom door shut you still have to turn the tv up pretty loud to hear anything. You can hear the train that passes by outside, but it never woke up my wife or I. The larger flat screen tv was a nice touch. The microwave was clean and worked well. The fridge worked as expected. Overall we had a pleasant experience and would be willing to put up with the neighbor noise in order to stay at this hotel again. Read more

Very motivated and friendly management/staff. Clean and functional rooms. Good restaurants nearby (less than 1 mile away).

I stayed 3 nights and would definitely return. All the things that I look for in a room were there ( except coffee pot in my room) : great bed, terrific water pressure, clean and fresh smelling,microwave and fridge in room, and the owners were great. My refrigerator wasn't working and instead of making me move, they just brought me a new refrigerator. […] I'd definitely stay again. There was road noise and there is noise from trains that run past, but nothing that kept me from sleeping or bothered me. Not a 5 star hotel, but definitely the best stay that I've had in over 2 months of travel. Read more

Checking in was a breeze with a friendly face at the desk. The room was a pleasant surprise with a fridge, microwave even a stove and plenty of room. Parking was easy and the coffee in the morning was great. Easy access to the Airport but a little "away" from the city. I would recommend this to everyone looking for simply a great deal!
