The Waypoint Hotel earns rave reviews for its exceptionally clean, spacious rooms and modern amenities. Guests have called out the stylish atmosphere and the inviting fire pits as highlights, creating a trendy vibe that resonates with a youthful crowd. While some travelers mention traffic noise and suggest updates in certain areas, the hotel's central location near dining hotspots like Big Bear restaurant is widely appreciated. The responsive, friendly staff also contribute to the hotel's reputation as a great value, despite minor feedback on the pool's location and noise.

Monmouth, Oregon12 contributions4 helpful votes
We had stayed on this property years ago when it was a different hotel and WOW, what an incredible makeover and upgrade! I was genuinely surprised by the extensive renovation the Waypoint had undertaken and the results were impressive. I love the crisp, boutique feel of this property. All the staff we had interactions with were very pleasant, helpful, and responsive to requests. Our room was very clean, quiet, and inviting. We had to travel north, east, and south for various reasons, and because we were conveniently located in the heart of Bend, we found ourselves within a very short drive to all of our destinations. I hope the Waypoint's future plans will include offering a free breakfast, or at least a light continental style breakfast. We definitely recommend this hotel and will be staying there on our next trip to Bend!

Dear PantherFan33, Thank you for the 5 Star review! Your review and business is greatly appreciated. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and found your accommodations clean, quiet and our location convenient. I am also pleased that you found the renovations done to date impressive and that you were provided pleasant customer service from our team. Regarding breakfast, unfortunately, we do not plan on bringing this back. Our plan is to turn this space that was once used for serving breakfast into a lounge serving spirits and small plates. This project is slated to begin in January and open in March of 2024. Our food cart partner, MidCity SmashedBurger, will not only operate this new lounge; they will also unveil a new food cart that will not only serve their amazing burgers but will also begin serving grab and go breakfast items. This will be another breakfast option for our guests in addition to the Black Bear diner on our property which serves breakfast, lunch and diner. Once again, I greatly appreciate your kind review. Your feedback confirms all or our hard work and efforts are indeed working and that the guest experience is better because of it. My team and I look forward to welcoming you back! Regards, Desmond Mollendor

We had a room right behind the outside pool and couldn’t park our car close to the room entrance. When the pool was busy it was actually pretty loud. The ice machine was also just around the corner and the walls where just to thin. You could hear people getting ice out of the machine. The room was clean and reasonably sized. There was no tea offered in the room. Breakfast was just some snacks to go.

Waypoint has it dialed. Great contemporary remodel of a Red Lion...Nice rooms, great beds, friendly and responsive staff, great selection of local ciders and beers on tap for a very reasonable price that can be enjoyed in a cool contemporary lobby or well-heated outdoor lobby with multiple fire pits. I saw a pad being poured by the entry for inclusion of a food truck which will up their game even more. Good central location--perfect basecamp for golfing, biking, skiing, hiking...or just enjoying Bend and Central Oregon. Don't hesitate to check this one out.

This is a motel on the side of a busy road with a small pool in the parking lot nothing more the photos are pretty misleading. Room was clean, remote didn’t work from the bed and there was a lot of traffic noise. The pool was lovely but it’s in the parking lot. Water was off whilst we were there but they were still charging $5 for a litre of bottled water.

Dear Nicola K, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It is unfortunate that it is only a 3 Star review. I am disappointed that you did not fully enjoy your stay with us as my team and I strive day in and out to make all of our guests feel welcomed and provide the best product we can. I am pleased that you did find your room clean and were able to enjoy our 9ft deep salt water pool and hot tub. Regarding your comments about our convenient location within walking distance to downtown Bend and the Deschutes River, I apologize that you felt our website was misleading. I can assure you that our website is not misleading but I do show that you made your reservation through Booking.com vs our own website. I would always recommend looking at the property's own website to confirm the information that one might get from a 3rd party reservation provider. Lastly, we did unfortunately have a plumbing repair that required us to shut off the water to the guestrooms for 30 mins during your stay with us. I will have to confirm with my team that you received the text notification and letter that we delivered to all of our guests the day before outlining this needed repair and time window when this shut off would occur. If you missed either of those communications, I apologize and will need to review with my team what other procedures we can put in place to ensure this doesn't happen again. Regards, Desmond Mollendor

This is a great hotel that delivers what it is supposed to and then some. Clean, well laid out room that is comfortable. The pool is nice even though it’s located out front. Plenty of clean towels and seating choices. Also a nice touch with draft beers and wine.

Fun hotel close to everything! Great staff who are also your bartenders! Love the updated rooms - funky vibe! Best part is after a long day of whatever you’re doing they have a bar with a fantastic beer selection, wine and mimosas to be enjoyed in the large outdoor seating area that has multiple fire pits! Can’t beat the friendly staff and location!
