Hotel Albion

Hotel Albion, established in 1906, is a former hotel and historic building in Portland, Oregon, in the United States. It is best known for housing Lotus Café, which occupied the ground floor from 1924 until its closure in August 2016. The hotel was renamed the Lotus Hotel in the 1930s or 1940s, but it closed in 1976 as a result of fire safety violations.

Designs for a 10-story office building that is proposed to be constructed on the site were approved by the Portland Design Commission, a city-appointed advisory panel, in early July 2016. The plans call for demolition of the Hotel Albion, and Ankrom Moisan Architects submitted a demolition permit to the city in mid-July 2016. The Auditorium and Music Hall, which is directly adjacent to the former hotel, is not proposed for demolition.
