Function Space

HiltonPortland & ExecutiveTower has 29 beautifully appointed meeting rooms with over 39,000 sq. ft. of flexible function space, including two ballrooms, plus a 26,000 Exhibit Hall.

We currently have our spacious Grand Ballroom I available for your program. It has 6,786 square feet of space with 18’ ceilings. To accommodate your program needs, we are proposing your classroom seating for the general sessions be comfortably placed near the front of the room. To the rear of the same large room, we will set the round tables to accommodate your lunches. Buffets will be pre-set in the foyer outside your session room, allowing your guests to select their lunch items and return to the pre-set rounds to enjoy their lunch.

Function Space Rental

By utilizing just the one very spacious room for your program, we are able to offer the meeting space to you at no charge.

Alternate Dates

Alternate dates available to accommodate your program are July 29-August 1, 2007. Over these dates your room rates would be offered at $129.00 single or double occupancy in our main building, in 2005 terms. We anticipate no more than a five percent (5%) increase annually to these rates

Function space over these alternate dates is offered at $500.00 per day. Meeting space would be double set like originally proposed program. Should space become available to place your lunch in a separate room, we would do so at no additional room rental charge.
