History
The hotel occupies the Lipman, Wolfe & Company Building, a grand terra-cotta-clad department store completed in 1912 at Fifth Avenue and Washington Street in downtown Portland. Designed by the prominent Portland firm Doyle & Patterson, the eight-story commercial block was one of the city's most fashionable retail palaces for much of the 20th century and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
After Lipman-Wolfe closed, the building was converted into a hotel, opening in 1996 as the all-suite Fifth Avenue Suites Hotel. In 2007 the Kimpton Hotel Group repositioned it as the Hotel Monaco Portland, a boutique property in the company's playful, design-forward style, later operating as the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Portland following IHG's acquisition of Kimpton. In more recent years the property has been reflagged as the Royal Sonesta Portland Downtown, continuing its life as a downtown luxury hotel.
