New General Manager Brings Personalized Service to Jupiter guests
PORTLAND, OR, June 30, 2005. The Jupiter Hotel recently orbited onto Cond'e Nast Traveler's annual "Hot List" of the 116 best new hotels in the world. The 80-room boutique hotel is part of Lower Burnside (LoBu), one of Portland's developing artsy neighborhoods, close to downtown. The Jupiter Hotel offers an affordable boutique hotel experience in an urban setting. The adjacent Doug Fir Restaurant, Bar and Lounge www.dougfirlounge.com offers cutting edge musical acts every night in the underground nightclub.
"The Cond'e Nast recognition validates our efforts to make the Jupiter an affordable and ecletic place to stay," says Tod Breslau, co-owner of the Jupiter Hotel. "We took a classic 60's motor hotel design and gave it a new twist with amenities found in more expensive hotels, access to the best bands in the NW, and personal service."
