Independence Hotel

The Independence Hotel completes the first phase of Independence Landing, a multi-phased redevelopment in downtown Independence. The boutique hotel features a bar with wine tasting, spa, and roof-deck; all with extensive views of the Willamette River. The building responds to existing views and adjacent uses in a way that makes each room unique. The team crafted the building with acoustical separations and unit layouts that provide a home-like setting. This promises to be a catalyst for further downtown development and to activate a vibrant, multi-use, multimodal riverfront. This was a public-private partnership with the City and required close collaboration with City leadership as well as local business leaders.
