Hood River hotels

For the outdoor enthusiasts, Hood River is certainly a good place to base yourself to take advantage of the outdoor activities that the area has to offer. The 2-star Westcliff Lodge, a hotel that is set within a 5-acre garden on the banks of the Columbia River, will organize activities such as windsurfing, hiking, cycling and, in the winter months, skiing.

If you would like to stay on the edge of the Columbia River, upon which the town of Hood River is located, a good option is the 3-star Best Western Plus Hood River Inn. This hotel is located adjacent to the Marina Boat Basin and provides easy access to the walking trails that run along the banks of the river. Some of the rooms have balconies with views of the Columbia River – a perfect place to relax and watch the river run by.

Visitors who want to pamper themselves while in Hood River could consider staying at the 3-star boutique Columbia Gorge Hotel & Spa, which has rooms with both river and garden views. Just 1.6 miles from the center of Hood River this hotel, which is nestled in the trees on the banks of the Columbia River, has a spa and wellness center where you can book spa treatments of all kinds.

If you would prefer to stay in downtown Hood River, think about booking into the historical Hood River Hotel. This 3-star hotel, which has something of a European air about it, is situated within walking distance (874 yards) of the town center where you can see the history of the town in the beautifully preserved buildings and soak up some of the culture in the art galleries. There are also restaurants and bars in downtown Hood River where you can sample some of the wine or beer brewed in the region.
