Hood River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place with a lot of history"

Rayland Hotel

8/10 Good

"Loved the decor-boutique chic, very tastefully designed IMO. One complaint is the HVAC which worked well but was noisy. Also, felt misled because the bistro isn’t open, won’t open until Sept. Room was spacious, huge shower & nice linens. TV lineup is set up to stream which wasn’t the best experience for us personally. Our dog was with us & we had plenty space. Liked the area which was new to us. Hope the bistro is successful. It’s a hotel that has been nicely renovated, would stay again."

The Dalles Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I traveled by myself but a group of us stayed in the same hotel. The room was very clean. It's simple nothing fancy. The bed was comfortable. It was a convenient location within walking distance to restaurants and the neon museum. One of my friends was intent on seeing the neon museum so we went. The guide's passion for neon and his job made us look at neon a whole different way. We enjoyed our short stay."

Lightwell Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for two nights at the start of our trip and it was an excellent choice. We loved the location - walkable to so many things! The hotel was quant & gorgeous. We love staying at great boutique hotels and this was it! The roof top bar was excellent but so was the lobby hotel bar. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The only thing to know before you book is the rooms are very small. Think NYC small. Not much room for luggage or anything really but the bed and two nightstands. But they had a ton of character and I think they did a great job with the space they had to work with. All in all I would recommend staying here - I know we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!"

Comfort Inn Columbia Gorge

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk clerk was awesome. We have an 18 year old kitty, and the clerk was ok with that. We didn't mind paying the cleaning fee, even though our kitty doesn't do much but sleep, eat, and use her box. I always bring a king size sheet for over the bed where she sleeps on her self heating pad. And carry a dust buster to clean up any litter pellets that come off her feet The property was clean, and bed comfortable. Great service."
