Top Thunder Island Hotel Reviews

Bonneville Hot Springs Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"So my stats at Bonneville are always memorable. If I have a choice, this is generally my first pick. The hot tubs on the balconies of the suite have mineral water pumped into them, and I can’t get enough of it. The staff this time though was unbelievably helpful. I did not make my check in time, yet, when I was able to arrive they wasted no time getting me into my room so I could relax, from day staff, to night staff (especially so), to the wait staff, bartender, and even the cafe staff were all so friendly and welcoming. Thank you everyone for my stay."

Sunset Motel Hood River

8/10 Good

"The room was sparsely furnished with towels, chairs, and basic amenities. Beds were comfy. Rooms are NOT soundproofed and the noise from above was incredible - elephants above! The setting is great, in that, there is a grocery store across the way and the building is setback so road noise was very limited. Front desk ppl were pleasant. No freezer in the room, only a small fridge. Clean-ish room - many spiders/webs. Nice that the window opened for fresh air. Fairly priced."

Cascade Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Such a nice, clean, well maintained property! Private cabins, comfortable beds and fully stocked kitchen. Staff is very welcoming and helpful. We would definitely choose this motel again and recommend you choose it too!"

Riverview Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Newly refurbished"

Lightwell Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a wonderful place to stay!! Staff made it super welcoming and the locations was conveniently in the middle of downtown Hood River. It was so relaxing for a couples trip. We had a couples massage and thoroughly enjoyed the sauna and hot tub.P.S the late night snacks were the best."

Columbia Gorge Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I fulfilled a dream with this stay. This is definitely a niche hotel. The facility is more than 100 years old and changes have maintained the original features but also acknowledged the present to the extent possible. (The elevator is staff-operated.) But there are only two floors of rooms. The view is gorgeous, and although numerous trains passed along the river below, the sound was minimal, even with my window open. My stay was midweek, and very pleasant. Those with a love of history and quaint, charming places will love this hotel."

Columbia Cliff Villas Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We upgraded our stay to a suite and were pleasantly surprised. The rooms were huge and nicely furnished. The view was breathtaking! We enjoyed a soak in a large tub, and relaxed by the fireplace in the evening. A wonderful way to spend our anniversary!"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Hood River by IHG

8/10 Good

"Pillows were just okay. A bottle of water in the room would have been wonderful."

Capital O Stevenson Inn Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"Kind people quiet place and peaceful. I would go there again!"
