This park is fine. I took my dog for a walk here at night before bed tho and here were dozens of huge rats running around. She kept trying to chase them I was scared shed catch a disease so I picked her up. The park is much nicer during the day when the rats are in hiding.

I feel for the massive homeless population we have in this area of the country. Go help feed the hungry, its our duty.

I was parking, its pretty nice parking! I visited Holiday Park Plaza back when I was about ten years. My step-grammy was 97 years. We celebrated her b-day at Roses delicatessen. Is that last word spelled right? So just one star cuz its just parking. Ill be back to talk more about holiday park plaza.

A well-intended city park that is known to attract a more negatively-natured crowd. Would definitely recommend keeping an eye on your stuff while here. Right between the Lloyd Center Mall and a primary MAX vein.

Horrible! I was abandoned here. Hee never returned here. He did return. After he went home, over 2hours away. He remains entitled to treat me this way. I stay. I deserve it.Beautiful park. Close to all things Portland!

A little gem in the middle of the city. Just one square block full of big trees, interesting sculptures, and a big play-in-it fountain. Lots of benches and picnic tables. A great place to read a book, enjoy your lunch, or people watch.

Its always nice to see a bit of nature in the city. Holladay Park does this, and it does it well. It has lush green grass, a fountain kids can play in, and its right next to the Max Station. Good for a stroll or just to pass through on your way to the Lloyd Center mall.

Its a great park for just strolling around. Wonderful scenery!

Review №22

Lots of rats, and it smells like urine at night. Some of the outer sections for grass are balding significantly. But it has good bones! Big beautiful trees, a nice splash pad, lots of benches to read a book, and its in a good location. Im glad the city has this place especially just off a max stop I just wish it was loved and kept up with a bit more.

No schedule for rehab, staff shows a lack of courtesy and respect to patients; didnt answer bell for 2 hours. What if it the call was serious. There is something seriously wrong going on here. Majority of folks are older and less verbal. I have talked with Upper Management and nothing changed. Today I called and still no response from Resident Care Manager. Very disappointed with their services and lack of courtesy. Complete failure in my review. 1 star is too much. I was told Holladay Park had the best rating and nurses from Providence go there for rehab. I have a call to them about this issue.

Pleasant mid-town park which has a kids water fountain. I saw quite a number of kids enjoying running through it - and a couple of adults too. Others were just enjoying the outdoors, reading and/or eating lunch. Id happily return given the opportunity.

There is a man here that prayed for me and I was healed! His name is Wayne.

Review №29

Attractive picturesque park, open space with a memorable fountain & statues. I only biked thru it, intermittently stopped at certain points & took in the surroundings during the day. Unfortunately homeless people can be observed in the park. So I can only guess what goes on in the evening...hence the urine smell in the air. If the park is truly valued for the gem it is in the community, affordable housing may be the partial key in resolving that issue coupled with more frequent police patrol.

This is a convenient spot to stop off & chill for a short time. Located just as downtown Portland begins, the people-watching is pretty interesting here. However, it comes stocked with the usual panhandlers asking for spare cigarettes & change. Oftentimes, there are activities & music here in the daytime. Shady spot for lunch if you work in a nearby building.

Park is on the light rail line across the street from the Loyd Center mall. It has an eclectic bit of statuary, but none of it is in your face offensive. There is no play ground. The neighborhood has mostly office buildings.

Attended VegOut 2019 here. What a beautiful park! I loved the water display and the gorgeous old trees. Its such a peaceful park and you can catch the light rail right out front.

Chill and pretty park. Has a nice fountain and local activity sometimes and its right next to the max and the mall. Only slightly annoyingly constant police patrols drive through the park but other than that its a great park.

Beautiful park with lots of trees. Right at MAX red, green, blue. Walking distance to Fab eats on NW Broadway. Park has many activities - exercise classes, ping pong, fountain for kids to play, lots of seating.

Review №42

Definitely not a place I would recommend. Its not really a park. More of a green space with benches here and there and a walkway for traveling between the light rail station and Lloyd center. Theres people sleeping, drug use right in the open, and people begging for money who can be very aggressive. I think I preferred it when people were shooting. That entire area is trash.

Safer than I expected at that time of night. Guy in a wheelchair was there, and some kids. Got offered drugs about a block away from this place. 10pm or so. Should be fine in daytime.

This is a park downtown. It is always busy. There seems to be something happening here each weekend. The play structure is nice. My kids enjoy a little break here to play on sunny days.

Fun place for STP event. We went there today and it was exciting. Racers were pouring in and folks were cheering them. Lots of big smiles and happy people. They even had a huge portable shower building...yes...it was as building on wheels. There was many good food carts...we chose tacos and they were delicious. Loyd center was kind enough not to charge for parking which was awesome and it took a ways the parking in Portland stress. I liked that the park had the fountains on so people could cool off. Great event ..I believe Kaiser Permanente was the sponsor.

Review №57

Its a beautiful park to walk through especially during fall. There are active members of the community there that do walks through the park to help keep out the shady business. Which is fantastic, but doesnt completely solve the problem. You are likely to get approached by someone wanting something from you and there are a lot of drugs being done in this park.

While waiting for the Japanese garden to open, I walked down the hill to holladay park to view the rose garden. The Roses were budding but had not yet started to show blossoming. It is such a peaceful area to take a stroll in. The area over looks parts of Portland that is just breathtaking.

Review №61

Its nice, but there are better parks. Be careful. If you show up just after school, or during holidays, expect to be harassed by high school kids with nothing better to do. Otherwise, its a matter of vagrants looking for a handout and ready to take you for anything they can, so dont linger there after dark. Basically, dont bother unless you have 5 minutes to kill before you catch a Max.

Review №67

This park is only good for a few things. Drugs and the threat of being shot and or stabbed. Avoid walking through here at any and all times of the day and night. Seriously avoid this place like The Plague. If you have to walk through here do it quickly and with your wits about you.

Another, little piece of Heaven, right in between the Max train platform & the Loyd Center Mall. Many big trees with shades picnic tables. Also a Fountain area for kids of all ages! Two Ping Pong tables as well. Nice to relax for a while. Traffic sounds & foot traffic for people watching. (No Restrooms available)

Not exactly the best place to hang out. Usually Im just exiting Lloyd Center and headed to the Max. Moderate crime area with fair amount of drug use. I usually see police around.

Do you like drugs? This might be the place for you. A friend of mine got a gun pulled on him for trying to hand this guy his wallet. Maybe skip this place.

We mostly go to this park to play Pokemon Go. Theres a good number of pokestops, and if you walk around the path you can get good egg hatching distance and lots of items.In the summer theres often a shade tent with board games and other fun stuff for families (or adults who refuse to get old ;) )

Great real estate opportunities for your tent. You can just pull up any chunk of sidewalk and move in RIGHT NOW as witnessed by myself and Mark Dobbs.

Review №92

The area was filthy. There were rowdy groups screaming and cursing and absolutely no sign of any security. This is not a place that I would walk through let alone spend time at. Considering the park is bordered on the South by the TriMet tracks, the West by a nice hotel, the North by the Lloyd center mall and the East with a movie theater it seems like they could join together and make sure that the place was safe clean and had adequate Security .
