Inside TheOrenco’s Charm
Tucked into Brownstones in the heart of Hillsboro’s walkable Orenco Station neighborhood, the Orenco Station Hotel offers a locally owned boutique hotel experience that feels both comfortable and connected. Last year, we even took home gold for Best Hotel in the Best of Hillsboro awards!
With just ten thoughtfully designed rooms, our small hotel property blends the warmth of a private retreat with the ease of modern amenities without the cold, corporate feel of a chain hotel. Add that to tree-lined streets, local cafés, and community charm, and you have an Oregon home-away-from-home worth returning to.
Whether you’re visiting Hillsboro or Portland for business or a family gathering—or perhaps you’re a local planning a romantic staycation—every detail at TheOrenco is designed to help you relax and unwind. Here are some of the amenities you can expect at the best boutique hotel in Hillsboro.
In-Room Comforts
Whether you’re staying one night or several weeks, TheOrenco provides everything you need for a seamless stay. We offer:
- Many rooms feature full or partial kitchens/kitchenettes—perfect for longer stays or guests who enjoy cooking. Our Studio King C2 has a kitchen island with stools, while Studio King B2 has a small dining table.
- Each room includes a comfortable desk/workspace area and high-speed Wi-Fi for work or video calls.
- Stream your favorite shows with flatscreen smart TVs in each room.
- Individual climate control, cozy seating, and blackout curtains ensure a restful stay.
- Brew yourself a cup of coffee or tea in the comfort of your own room with our Keurigs.
- Bagged ice is available (found downstairs on C side).
- Hot and cold water service, as well as complimentary snacks and books to borrow, are available in our hotel lobby.
It’s everything you’d expect from home, plus the care and hospitality that come with a boutique hotel experience. We’ll take care of the daily cleaning, too!
A Contactless Stay
We’ve designed TheOrenco for the modern traveler. Our optional contactless check-in and check-out system allows for smooth, flexible arrivals without a traditional employee at our front desk. Guests can easily communicate with our team by text or phone if they need assistance, ensuring both privacy and convenience throughout their stay. You will receive a door access code via text before check-in that will allow you to enter both the hotel lobby and your room at your convenience. And if you’d prefer us to meet you at our front desk upon arrival, just let us know your approximate arrival time and we’re happy to greet you!
We also have reliable complimentary high-speed WiFi internet access that keeps you connected, whether you’re streaming, working, or staying in touch with family.
Pet-Friendly Courtyard Rooms
We know that some family members have four legs, which is why we happily welcome pets to our Courtyard King Rooms: M1, B1, and C1. These pet-friendly rooms have separate private street-level entrances so pets do not actually enter the hotel lobby area, and offer quick and easy outdoor access when taking your pet out for a walk.
Central Park is just steps away from our hotel, and Cornell Dog Park is a short walk around the corner, so you and your furry friend can both enjoy Orenco Station. (You can bring your pup to the outdoor seating at One Horse TapHouse, Mazama, and Ava Roasteria, too!)
Plus, nearby pet services like Nature’s Pet Orenco (toys, treats, and food) and Camp Bow Wow Hillsboro (Doggy Daycare and boarding) make traveling with your companion easy and stress-free.

Relaxing Outdoors
From morning coffee to evening wine and every peaceful break in between, our private courtyards and balconies offer quiet spots to enjoy the day. Surrounded by greenery and tucked within a peaceful neighborhood, they’re the perfect place to unwind after a busy schedule or day of exploring.
Outside of your hotel room, we also loan out bicycles and pickleball gear for guests to enjoy our local parks and nature trails. And if you need a recommendation on experiences or winery recommendations in Hillsboro and our surrounding region, we’ve got you covered.
Cleanliness You Can Count On
At TheOrenco, we take pride in our spotless spaces. Our housekeeping team goes above and beyond to ensure that every room is clean, fresh, and inviting, because we know that the little details make all the difference. For extended stays, we offer flexible housekeeping options to fit your schedule and preferences.
Unless you prefer otherwise, our team will refresh your room between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. each day to ensure it’s restored to its original comfort. If you’d like to opt out of daily housekeeping for the duration of your stay, simply text “DND” (Do Not Disturb)—we do not use door hangers at TheOrenco.
You’re welcome to reach our team anytime through WhatsApp, SMS text, email, or your booking platform’s chat (such as Booking.com, Expedia, or Airbnb). All messages are received through our Whistle communication system, which is fully integrated with our Cloudbeds Property Management System to help us respond quickly and ensure a seamless stay experience.
The Best of Orenco Station
Though we pride ourselves on the hotel amenities we provide for our guests, what makes TheOrenco truly special is its exceptional location. Set in the heart of Orenco Station—one of Hillsboro’s most walkable, vibrant neighborhoods with a rich history—guests can easily explore everything the area has to offer without getting in the car.
- Steps from our front door, you can enjoy cafés, restaurants, and more.
- New Seasons Market is a very short walk away, ideal for quick groceries or snacks for your kitchenette.
- The nearby MAX Light Rail (Orenco Station stop) is within walking distance and offers inexpensive, direct access to downtown Portland and Portland International Airport.
- We have free, convenient, safe street parking in front of and around the hotel (NE Orenco Station Parkway and NE Brighton Drive), meaning no added costs or hassles.
- We are within walking distance (less than one block) to Providence ExpressCare (urgent care).
Locally Owned
One thing that sets The Orenco Station Hotel apart from other hotels in our area is that we are locally owned and operated—owners Richard and Margie live right across the street. We are proud to be part of the community we serve!
Local ownership means that our boutique hotel is better connected to what’s going on with nearby businesses, events, and experiences that reflect the spirit of Hillsboro and the Tualatin Valley. It also means we can be physically present to attend to our guests and their needs.
Our local business partnerships include:
- A daily Café Ticket with your stay for a complimentary light continental breakfast at local bakery Tous Les Jours (located one block from the hotel)—learn more.
- Coordinated shuttle service to/from Portland International Airport (PDX) with trusted partner Beaverton Airporter (must be reserved in advance)—learn more.
- Referral to Camp Bow Wow for Doggy Daycare or boarding—learn more.
- Local experience and tourism recommendations through Explore Tualatin Valley (check out the maps and guides in our lobby).
- Connection to regular community events through Just Create Community (JCC), where local entrepreneur Cindy Cosenzo connects our community with activities like walks at the park, pickleball, and coffee meet-ups.
