Westcliff Lodge has everything, incredible views, beautiful gardens, spacious spotless rooms and comfortable beds. It’s a short drive to Hood River and it’s so nice to have the peace and quiet outside of town. We’ll definitely return.

We stayed two nights (Saturday and Sunday) to attend my daughter's wedding at a private venue. The facilities are very well groomed and clean. Even though I did not have a Columbia River view room, my room faced the inner courtyard, it was very nice. I imagine the river view room are spectacular, as the lodge sits right on a cliff overlooking the river. There are paved walking trails to explore the grounds. The rooms also have a private small balcony with a couple chairs to exit onto and are quiet. The room was very large - had two queen size beds with three large, comfortable pillows on each bed, lots of space to walk around the beds, small dining table, refrigerator, microwave, and a HUGE bathroom (two shower heads - regular and rainwater style) with tons of extra towels. I loved the ecological friendly placards to use on the beds and in the bathroom if changing of bedding and towels was not necessary. The staff are very friendly and accommodating - the maid promptly gave us the extra coffee packets we requested. Yea! There was a wedding on the grounds our first night, and although I heard the music when parking, once I got into my room I couldn't hear a thing. But as I was further away from the wedding site it could have been louder if I had a river view room near the site. Just to be sure, I would ask for a room further from the wedding site if you are sensitive to late night music, but I don't think it would really be an issue as the rooms seem to be pretty sound proof. The location is minutes from downtown and numerous dining facility options. The staff, grounds, and cleanliness would definitely have us staying here again whenever we visit Hood River!

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
We were driving up to Canada to spend time with our family during COVID and stopped at the Westcliff Lodge on our way. The check-in process was exceptional, they are pet friendly, which was great because we were traveling with our two puppers, and the grounds were incredibly welcoming and colorful! Our room had a large dining table next to the window for a gorgeous view of their gardens and the river. A large fridge was perfect because we had planned to eat only what we brought with us on this trip. We went for a walk around the gardens at sunset and ende dup setting up our beach chairs on the grass to enjoy a glass of wine. Overall this is one of the best overnight stops I've encountered, and I will definitely be back! My only advice is to bring a scented candle or air freshener. The rooms are older and our room did have a distinct "old" smell to it LOL! But once we opened the windows it helped tremendously. In the morning as we were leaving, the housekeeping staff was outside, in masks and gloves, cleaning down all public areas, window sills, railings door knobs, etc. I felt very comfortable here.

We don't live that far away from Westcliff, but our plans for celebrating our 30th anniversary were cancelled due to weather and covid. We still wanted to have a special day so at the last minute we booked a King Suite with a fireplace and view of the Columbia River (and a balcony!) and it was AMAZING! The rooms (including extra bedroom) were sanitized, all cups and glassed were sealed and we felt very comfortable being there. The suite is beautiful and very comfortable. The extensive grounds are great for long walks with the dog.
The person who handled our reservation, Tammy, was amazing! I told her what we needed, a great, safe room and no stairs the dog had to climb and she made sure we got that. We were able to check in early since no one had been in the room the night before. I can't thank her enough for helping us have a wonderful quiet, safe celebration. :)

We stayed in the Premium RiverView room and it was very spacious, fireplace, great view of the river, and had a separate room with an extra bed. It was nice to have a mircowave and mini fridge too. We were very impressed with the value of the room for the size and view.

We chose to stay at Westcliff Lodge originally because of the location (close to where we wanted to go mountain biking and golfing) and the value (rooms were inexpensive compared to other nearby hotels). We ended up being extremely pleased with our stay. Staff were exceptional - very kind and friendly. The room was very clean and helpful amenities such as a coffee maker, a mini fridge, and a microwave were available in our room. The grounds were beautiful, grassy and landscaped with many pretty flowers, and we loved sitting outside and looking over the Columbia Gorge in the evenings. We will definitely be going back! Our only complaint was the Wifi was not very good at all, but sometimes it is nice to have a reason to disconnect from the world of the internet/work/social media/etc!

Westcliff Lodge is a great hotel with large clean rooms with well maintained facilities, and a great view of Columbia River. It's a short drive to downtown Hood River, yet far enough to get a the peaceful views of the river. The facilities have picnic tables facing the river so you can eat a meal or have a drink weill enjoying the view. The staff and guests were friendly. I recommend calling the hotel to make your reservations rather than booking on their website or through a third party company.

Let’s start by saying it rained everyday of our extended weekend and we had a great time! The quality of the room, very large with balcony, the stunning view, and the price were wonderful! Front desk staff were very helpful from making and changing dates, to adding another night. Appreciated free coffee in morning, although we did try several area coffee shops too. It is a small thing, but this hotel gives two different types of real glassware in the room, no cheap plastic cups! Loved it! And we received a $50 gift certificate for either food or shopping, which we used easily!
And we really liked the pillows. Would have liked to have used the very balcony, but rain did make it a bit soggy lol. The grounds did look quite pretty. Loved the family history of the lodge, we always try to support local businesses, versus the cookie cutter chain hotels. Would recommend The Westcliff Lodge highly!

This place is absolutely amazing! We had a death in our family and stayed here on short notice rooms were very clean. A couple of weeks after our first stay we had planned a Celebration of Life here in Hood River with all of our family coming from out of town we booked 7 rooms here and the staff went out of there way to help us out and make our rooms all in a great location all together in the same area. We will continue to stay here every time we come to Hood River because of your great staff. I highly recommend the Westcliff Lodge! Thanks again!

Spectacular panoramic river and hillside views are particularly enjoyed from the largest corner suites with log heaters at this clean waterfront lodge. Beds are super comfortable, outdoor decks embrace the location. You might hear voices and plumbing from adjacent rooms, but otherwise there’s not much you will miss from a five star resort. And we preferred the rustic style as compared to the larger hotel/spa next door, (where the massage was superb, by the way!)

Good day! Our 3-story riverview has balconies, while the 2-story does not! None of our buildings have elevators. We do plan on building another building in the future and that one will get an elevator.
We don't have guest laundry on site, but Washboard Eco Laundry nearby is available and can also provide wash/dry/fold services.
Also, as I remember each tent had a double or queen sized bed. Also the local phone number for them is 541-386-2992 (US)
Westcliff Lodge doesn't serve Breakfast. There are many wonderful restaurants in Hood River.
Sorry for the delayed response. It's not going to be easy to walk anywhere to a restaurant other than the one right in front of the property and perhaps the hotel next door. The closest restaurants are probably 2-3 miles away.
