The Hotel deLuxe is a hotel located in southwest Portland, Oregon, in the Goose Hollow neighborhood. Built in 1912, the hotel was commissioned by Rufus Mallory, a Portland lawyer and politician. and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (as the Mallory Hotel). It was sold in 2004, renovated, and reopened as the Hotel deLuxe in 2006.

In 2004, Jemiah Jefferson—who "set a section of one of [her] novels there"—called the hotel "one of the last magical places in [Portland], so precious and evocative of a better-dressed time of sloe-gin fizzes, slingbacks and Benny Goodman, where the bartenders are good-looking, heavy-pouring charmers and mystery seems to lurk in the brilliant reflections of the mirrored walls.
