Look at into the new Ace Hotel Portland to fully recognize the city's take on urban chic. The blocklong historic property has been renovated into a 79-space magnet for youthful artistic types, flawlessly positioned downtown on the edge of the Pearl District--just techniques from the famed Powell's Books flagship. An ethos of reuse and neighborhood pride is embedded in the retro information: unique murals by homegrown artists, Pendleton wool blankets on platform beds, apple-crate stepping stools next to claw-foot tubs, and classic vinyl documents on loan from the lobby. Make like a native and linger at the adjacent Stumptown Coffee Roasters cafe, known for its superlative brew. Then hop on 1 of the hotel's fleet of shiny Dutch bicycles and take delight in September's crisp sunshine--in advance of the inevitable rains set in. From $95 www.acehotel.com/portland or 503/228-2277.
