The Francis Hotel
Welcome sign with your dog's name, a bed, bowls and treats
This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.
What we've verified
You're in Portland itself, with city streets to walk from the door. The hotel asks you to wipe paws on the way back in, so wet-weather walks are expected.
Dogs can be left alone in the room for no more than two and a half hours.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
USD 35, Per night, plus a USD 250 refundable cleaning deposit collected at check-in
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs stay in pet-friendly rooms on the ground, first and second floors, not the third. They must be on a lead in all public areas and can be left alone in the room for up to two and a half hours.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
