Frequently asked questions about The Society Hotel

Is the photo booth at The Society Hotel still working?

Probably, but reports disagree, so treat it as a maybe. We last checked on May 31, 2026. If you go, let us know what you found.

How much is a strip at The Society Hotel, and can I pay by card?

$9 for a strip. Cash only — bring coins or small notes.

Is The Society Hotel a real film photo booth or a digital one?

Real film. Prints are black-and-white, developed with real chemistry inside the machine, so expect to wait a few minutes for the strip to drop.

Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to The Society Hotel?

Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.

How many photos do you get at The Society Hotel, and how long does it take?

One strip of four shots in black and white for $9. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.

What time can I use the booth at The Society Hotel?

We don't have the hours yet. It's inside the venue, so go during their normal opening times, and check ahead if you're travelling far.

How do I get to The Society Hotel?

It's at 203 NW 3rd Ave., Portland, Oregon in Old Town Chinatown. Use the map above for transit, walking or driving directions from wherever you are.

Can I get into The Society Hotel with a wheelchair or a pram?

We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.

What if the booth at The Society Hotel is out of order when I get there?

It happens — these machines are decades old. Scroll to "Nearest booths" in Portland for the closest alternative, and tap "Report an issue" so we can flag it for everyone else.

When was The Society Hotel last checked?

May 31, 2026, by us. If you've been more recently, mark it visited on this page — that's how we keep listings honest.
