The restoration of this building kept the vintage feel but with modern amenities. The bed was comfortable, plenty of towels and comfy robes. The staff were super friendly and accommodating . We came in an ‘off season’ so most of downtown dining closes at 9pm including the hotel. We plan to revisit soon!

Getting in the property through the main door can be challenging (steps and doors are in the way when you are carrying luggage) but we found out that there a door on the side which is a lot easier to get in. Overall very nice, the room was some smaller than expected. We had a nice time at the spa. Definitely recommended if you stay in Hood River.

Amazing new hotel. Staff was really friendly. They have done a wonderful job with the common areas and rooms. Stayed in an inside queen room which was small but well appointed—very cozy! The spa area was great, the only complaint being that the airflow wasn’t great so our eyes burned a bit after using. We will stay again!
