The Wild Rose Suite was spectacular in every way. Meticulously clean with plenty of room to stow away necessities, a fabulously comfortable king-sized bed, and a large luxury bathroom. Sally is a most gracious host, and her lavish breakfasts became the highlight of my day. Her love of cooking shows in every detail. We couldn't have chosen a more perfect place to enjoy our vacation.

Sally is very strong on TLC. We felt very well-looked-after. The apartment we stayed in was pristine, with the worlds most comfortable bed!

Staying at the Rose Cottage B & B in Portland, Oregon was a true joy. The suite was spotless and comfortable with charming character and the food (mostly local and organic) was clearly created by an artist who loves her craft. Innkeeper Sally Palmer seems to think of every detail, and she abounds with good humor. I left my stay feeling like I was leaving a good friend.

We just got back from our trip to Portland and were mightly impressed with the Rose Cottage Bed and Breakfast. All the usual things were there and very well done, but the details the innkeeper attended to and the thoughtfulness set this B&B well apart and above the rest. Beyond the rooms' comfort, furnishings, lighting and appointments, and the incredible breakfast of local, eco-friendly courses; Sally is one in a million.

Sally Palmer is the perfect hostess, warm, affable, with a ready smile and laugh. What impressed us was the thought and attention to detail she has given not just to every appointment in the suite and the careful selection of ingredients in her unbelievably great breakfasts (may be the best omelette I have ever had), but even attention to the plants in her garden! Truly a wonderful place, and very convenient to downtown. - Scott & Maureen Holmberg, Atlanta, GA

We recently stayed at the Rose Cottage B&B from May 2, 2009 to May 4, 2009. We were greeted most warmly by Innkeeper, Sally Palmer. She gave us a tour of our suite, "The Wild Rose." Upon entering the suite we were in instant awe. The exquisite modern decor, amenities (sitting area with fireplace, TV and service area) and impeccable houskeeping were most obvious. We felt extremly comfortable and at home in this top notch, spacious B&B. We were even more impressed the next morning with the plentiful, 4-course gourmet, delicious breakfast that Sally served using only the freshest ingredients. It is most evident that Sally takes great pride and loves serving those fortunate enough to stay at her B&B. She was most helpful in suggesting restaurants and local areas of interest. Without hesitation, she willing accommodated breakfast due to our very early departure. As a frequent B&B visitor, it is evident that the level of service and amenities offered by Sally and The Rose Cottage surpass the majority of B&Bs that we have experienced. Sally's careful attention to detail is evident both inside and outside the B&B. When in the Portland area, treat yourself and experience the utmost in service and quality, stay at the The Rose Cottage. Glenda Vietinghoff Linda Groff Ocala, Florida

We stayed for two wonderful weeks in Portland in September 2008 and enjoyed what Oregon has to offer. But even better than the beautiful Oregon Coast was Sally's Rose Cottage! The rooms are charmingly and very tastefully furnished. Every wish you could possibly have is already taken care of and the breakfast is sheer poetry! We still love to reminisce the great time and hospitaliy we enjoyed at the Rose Cottage. Ulla & Horst

Sally sets the breakfast table with a bit of English tranquility. Be ready for a breakfast event. Sally puts thought and careful preparation into each mornings fare. You will feel pampered. The rooms are immaculate with their own themes. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. Sally also loves to help with your touring of the Portland and surrounding areas, be sure and ask her input on your plans. Will stay there again.

This is the second time we have come to Portland and stayed at the Rose Cottage. It was like coming home. The cozy rooms with the comfortable beds were only outdone by the over the top breakfast provided by the Innkeeper. I could not recommend it higher. - Howard & Mary-Beth, Albuquerque, NM

What a find. Sally is simply the best. Her breakfasts are delicious, her inn is immaculate and is very nicely decorated. Thanks to B&B.com, we found this little treasure.

Rose Cottage is run by a wonderful lady who is the perfect hostess. The breakfasts were delightful and varied, and the rooms and location were great. We were expecting to cab it to various spots when needed, but that was not necessary as the excellent public transportation (bus to trains) runs right near by. Our experience in Portland couldn't have been better, and Sally (the hostess) is a dog person, which makes it perfect for us.

We recently stayed at Sally Palmer's lovely Rose Cottage Bed and Breakfast in Portland and cannot recommend it highly enough. Inside, the private rooms are beautiful, spacious and clean; outside, the grounds and seating areas are private, lush and inviting. And best of all, the breakfasts are outstanding! We really appreciated the priority that Sally places on local, fresh, organic ingredients, plus she is a fabulous cook. We look forward to returning to Rose Cottage and enjoying the charm, beauty and great value again.

Our stay at Rose Cottage in July 2008 was completely delightful. Sally's gourmet breakfasts were lavish and delicious. Our rooms--the Rose Suite--were large, bright, and tastefully decorated, as well as absolutely spotless. The bed was comfortable, the linens soft, and the towels fluffy. We appreciated the small refrigerator, microwave and dishes provided (especially after our innkeeper made restaurant reservations for us, since we could bring back leftovers and dessert). The building is tucked away in a cul-de-sac at the edge of the city--it was challenging to find at first--yet it doesn't take long to drive into downtown Portland, and as a light sleeper, I truly loved the quiet setting. There's plenty of room for parking. (Sports car fans, take note: there's a Lotus dealership around the corner.) Sally was very helpful, always ready to share suggestions, driving instructions, maps and visitors' guides. Our only regrets are that we didn't have time to use the suite's huge whirlpool tub, and that we couldn't stay even longer. I would certainly stay here again, and recommend it to anyone visiting the Portland area.

We stayed at Rose Cottage in August 2008. The suburban location is unremarkable, but it is only a 10-minute drive to downtown Portland. The house is new and was built as a B&B with two 2-room apartments separated from the main house by a breezeway. The apartments are roomy, scrupulously clean, with a great shower, and fully equipped, including a small kitchenette. Sally the proprietor is an experienced B&B host, with an intimate knowledge of Portland. Don't plan on an early start. Breakfast "starts" at 8:30, but will take an hour. It is well-spent time, however, since Sally will regale you with facts, recommendations, and stories while she is preparing a fabulous, heavily local food gourmet breakfast. We got a little impatient with the process, it really was worth the time involved. Very highly recommended.

We couldn't ask for a more gracious and friendly host than Sally. Our accomodations were comfortable and very clean. And Sally's breakfasts are the best! This is a perfect place to stay while visiting Portland.

We have stayed at the Rose Cottage three times and are returning this October. This is the perfect place to relax and be pampered. Sally has attended to every detail. The suite is beautiful, spacious and expertly decorated. Sally is a fabulous chef and the breakfasts are amazing. We always look forward to beginnng our day with a creative and tasty breakfast and interesting conversation with Sally. The location is perfect for going in any direction, and we have been able to see so many things that we wouldn't know about if Sally hadn't told us about them. She knows about all of the hidden gems as well as the regular tourist spots in Portland. We would not consider staying anywhere else when in Portland. At The Rose Cottage you have a perfect location, outstanding accomodations, gourmet food and a wonderful host. Robyn and Raymond

We were pleasantly surprised by the Rose Cottage. It is centrally located to the Portland area. Our room was immaculately clean and the innkeeper was warm and friendly with an in depth knowledge of Oregon. We had a daily gourmet organic breakfast and she was helpful with suggestions as to restaurants and places of interest. We highly recommend this Bed & Breakfast experience.

Our stays have all been relaxing and stress-free. We stay at Rose Cottage whenever we are in Portland because it is close to everything in town and also close to the Oregon wine country. We love driving out to the coast for a day.
