Flight
Portland International Airport (PDX) is very close to the city and is very easy in and out. There are plenty of hotels around the airport but they are similar in price to downtown hotels so we'd recommend exploring those options instead since it'll put you closer to the fun stuff Portland has to offer.
Hotel
The Kennedy School Hotel is just two miles from The Village Ballroom. Located in an old school house, it has many features including a movie theater, numerous on site bars and restaurants and a soaking pool.

Hotel
A collection of tiny houses that you can rent like a hotel. Located about a mile and a half from the venue and right in the middle of an area with great restaurants. These are legit tiny houses; you've been warned!
Hotel
Very cool, inexpensive hotel located in downtown Portland about four miles from the venue. The big draw here is bunk beds! Might be the perfect choice if you have like a bunch of kids or something. As it's downtown, parking is going to be a bear - the hotel does NOT have parking. This might be better for those of you who are going to be using something like Uber or Car2Go to get around.
