March 8, 2026SMA1126Weekend Getaway
My husband and I spent a night here. It’s a beautiful, quaint, vintage feeling hotel. It felt like we were staying in a bedroom of an old house (in a good way!). The elevator is original and a staff member has to operate it for anyone wanting to utilize it. The grounds are beautiful, the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and large. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was nice. Only negative: We could hear the people in the room above us walking around after we had gone to bed. I would recommend.

lovely little getaway
my partner and i live in portland, and have driven through hood river multiple times and found it very charming but have never spent much time there. we decided to stay at the columbia gorge hotel & spa for a couple nights during the off season and use it as our basescamp for various day hikes we'd planned on mt. hood and surrounding areas. the hotel grounds are lovely and well maintained, and the room was nice and fairly spacious as well. the staff was all very welcoming and helpful. we did not take advantage of the spa, as we just did not have time, but maybe during our next stay!

Great Spot for Romantic Getaway
It had been years since we stayed at the Columbia Gorge Hotel. The trip from our home in Boring was a quick and easy 1 hour drive, which we loved noy spending hours driving to start our weekend of fun. We were welcomed by a fresh, elegant lobby and friendly reception staff. We booked our room last minute and we're delighted that we could check right to drop our things and go explore. We had our Golden Retrievers with us, which received a gift basket with food dishes, treats, and poo bags. When we got to our room we were impressed by the spacious corner spot with a lovely gas fireplace and beautiful view out the 3 (small) windows. We unpacked and set oit for a funeral day of wine tasting, shopping, museum exploring, and ended the night with a tasty dinner I'm the hotel restaurant.
