On a bluff overlooking the Columbia River sits Oregon(TM)s most exclusive Inn, the Columbia Gorge Hotel. Built in 1904 as the Wah Gwin Gwin Hotel (Native American for "rushing water" for the 208' waterfall on the grounds), the Columbia Gorge was painstakingly restored to its former level of grandeur in the early 1980(TM)s. Today, guests of the Columbia Gorge can delight in the breathtaking beauty of the river and surrounding landscape, while relaxing in the gracious comforts of an elegant and inviting hotel.

Came for a one-night stay for business purposes. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We needed their meeting room for two days and we had everything we needed. The building is beautiful and there are some lawn games on the grounds that we took advantage of. Very easy to get to and close to downtown as well! Room was very spacious and clean--nice deep bathtub was a nice touch.

Great location in the middle of the Gorge. Beautiful grounds right on the Columbia! Had a room above the waterfall and was amazing to sleep to.

I purchased a package at the Columbia Gorge Hotel, Hood River, OR. We live only 70 miles from this venue, but we were surprised at how little we knew about the area. The room, meals and other amenities were outstanding. The Hotel staff was very friendly, helpful and they went out of their way to fulfill our every need. This made a very wonderful 46th wedding anniversary.

My husband and I stayed at the Columbia Gorge Hotel last October. We thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality of the hotel, including the wonderful dinner along with the bountiful breakfast each morning that was also included. The spa package was also quite a treat.
