Hotels in Hood RiverA historic 3-star boutique hotel in downtown Hood River
8.1/10
A characterful downtown base, provided you can live with noise and old-building quirks.
Hood River Hotel is a historic 3-star boutique hotel that earns its keep through character and location rather than polished facilities. It's a strong pick for exploring downtown on foot, with restaurants, breweries and shops close by. Expedia and Booking.com guests repeatedly praise clean rooms and helpful staff; Tripadvisor is more mixed about room condition and sleep quality. The fireplace lobby and Broder Øst restaurant give it more personality than a standard roadside hotel.
The compromises are real: recurring train and street noise, some small rooms and bathrooms, and uneven reports about cooling and maintenance. Parking nearby and breakfast cost extra, and the hotel lists an amenity fee. We'd skip it for light sleepers or anyone expecting spacious, uniformly modern rooms; choose your room category carefully.
