April 28, 2026Jeff MWonderful Eugene Marathon Weekend
Five-star stay at Valley River Inn for Eugene Marathon weekend. The location couldn’t have been better—right along the river with immediate access to scenic running trails and just minutes from all the marathon events and downtown Eugene. The service was outstanding from start to finish, and the beds were incredibly comfortable—exactly what you need before and after race day. Seamless, relaxing, and runner-friendly in every way. Highly recommend.

The room was spacious and bed comfortable. Shower had really hot water. The room had a balcony that looked towards highway. The room was loud but it wasnt from highway. We could hear everything from the other rooms. Especially people walking in the floor above us. Parking and check in was smooth.

April 10, 2026Sheryl LNoisy hotel
The hotel is nice and good location. The restaurant onsite was very good. However, this hotel is extremely noisy. You can hear conversations in the room next door that has an adjoining door. The next door room literally shakes your room when the door slam shuts. Unfortunately we had a bunch of male teenagers that were constantly going in and out of their room.

I like the Valley River inn and have been a few times however this was not a great trip. The room had a fireplace smell coming in from vent. Ground floor with terrible view and zero privacy. Kid running back and forth in room above with loud pops and creaks that became increasingly annoying. Mattress felt like a box spring and needs to be thrown out. Highly disappointed and will think two before booking again. Pool looked inviting and breakfast In restaurant was pretty good.

Pleasant view of river; long walk to the room.
This is a larger hotel than I anticipated, with a long walk from parking to our room. We had chosen a riverfront view room, and we enjoyed that location. The room was reasonably large, everything was in working order, check-in was easy, departure was easy. We chose this hotel because it is immediately adjacent to the Eugene riverfront bicycle trail, and we stopped in Eugene primarily to cycle on this trail before having dinner with friends. The hotel is not directly connected to the trail, but it's a short 200 yard ride across the a little-used (maybe on Black Friday) part of the shopping center parking lot to a trail entrance. Unlike most places we stay, this hotel is traditional, with a restaurant, and no breakfast provided with the room. We brought cereal, yogurt, and fruit with us, so did not visit the restaurant. But the restaurant has a nice river view, and I hope the food is as good as the location. The room was a little cheaper than comparable places with breakfast, so the value is about the same. There are only a couple of places to stay in Eugene that are really close to the trail, and this was the only one we found that allowed us access without even crossing a single street. We would consider it again for a one-night stay, but for a longer stay would opt for a more modern unit with a full-sized fridge and kitchenette.
