I expected more from this hotel. The front desk staff were not as friendly or attentive as I thought they should be for the price we paid at the best hotel in HR. I've always wanted to stay there, so for a HRVHS reunion we splurged. Excellent room service and well kept landscape. We had very noisy neighbors above us. We stayed six nights. I finally commented on it when we were checking out (my mistake) and they told us that there was no room above us and that the sound of furniture being moved was from the ghosts! It would have been nice to know that up front.

Atmospheric, with lovely grounds - a bit short on room conveniences.
Always enjoy the feel of the place, the Valentino lounge, and the grounds. Minor issues: Very leaky window in room 314, and a microwave, or at least a kettle, would be appreciated.

We came for our anniversary. The property was so beautiful! The hotel and staff were so kind! We ate dinner and breakfast in the hotel it was delicious and not overly priced. If you go I definitely recommend the King suite with the fireplace it overlooks the the Colombia River Gorge and is spectacular! Thanks Colombia River Hotel and Spa for making our anniversary trip most beautiful!

Excellent Service
Excellent customer service with attentive, friendly staff and personal care that matches perfectly such a nostalgic, historic spot from another era. The gardens are incredibly beautiful, well-maintained. Bar had lively entertainment; restaurant had warming, comfy food. I plan to stay again!

Wonderful Wedding Venue
I stayed here for my wedding, and everything was amazing. The hotel is beautiful and well maintained. My wife and I loved the suite we stayed in. Staff members were helpful and nice. I have to give the biggest shoutout to Cheyanna, for helping make my wedding dreams come true. She was so helpful and attentive my whole wedding weekend. Nothing was slipping through the cracks with her around. Thank you so much!
