Top Freighthouse Square Hotel Reviews

McMenamins Elk Temple

10/10 Excellent

"Great unique and interesting place to stay and the room was in very good condition with a lot of personality. There's several bars on the property and it's kind of an entertainment hub, including a live music venue but I didn't have any issues in my room with noise. The tiki bar ("Old Hangout") on the lower level was the best bar that I visited. The bar and hotel staff were all very helpful. Only thing a little amiss was the floors weren't very clean in two of the bars but that wasn't a big deal and the hotel area was very clean."
