Portland, Ore.: Get a passport to free food with your hotel stay
You don’t need a passport to visit Portland, Ore., but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get one. Those who book their next hotel stay at Travel Portland’s website will receive a “passport” for free food items instead of free passage. And who doesn’t want a free cream doughnut from Voodoo Doughnuts?
The deal: The Portland Passport is a good way to sample some of the city’s artisan food stops. Receive a free one-hour beer tour and tasting at Widmer Bros. Brewing, free basket of buttermilk biscuits at the Country Cat, a free cup of seafood chowder at Salty’s on the Columbia and a free ice cream cone at Salt & Straw. No extra purchase required to take advantage of the passport.
When: The offer is good for reservations made through March 31.
Tested: I checked available hotel rates for March 8-10 on the Travel Portland website and found $189 a night plus tax at the historic Governor Hotel (614 S.W. 11th Ave.) and $159 a night plus tax at the Mark Spencer Hotel (409 S.W. 11th Ave.). Both prices include free parking and continental breakfast as well as the passport valued at $45.
