We had just one night at the Gorge and the BW Cascade Locks was a lovely respite from a day of travel and exploring. The rooms were fabulously clean, well appointed, accessible and the earplugs were a welcome relief for the trains running all evening and well into the morning :) We had a river view and loved watching the...

We came to the Gorge for a photography shoot week. This hotel is so convenient to the whole Gorge area. Had a room with a balcony overlooking the Columbia River and the bridge of the gods. Great view! Room was spacious, clean and even came with earplugs. You need them because the hotel backs up to some very active tracks.... More

Lovely, comfortable room, beautiful setting, pleasant and helpful staff--but oh that train!!! It was too warm to close our window or door, and I don't sleep well with ear plugs. The train came by every 15 minutes all night long. The sound could raise the dead.

Our hiking group, seven couples, spent two nights at this beautiful hotel on the Columbia River in the town of Cascade Locks. Our rooms were comfortable, clean and the breakfast was more than continential. The staff was exceptional, providing an area for our group to have a potluck dinner together, and also allowing one of our group to use the... More

Think of the Gorge as a valley with the Columbia River at the base. Now picture the only place to put a rail road yep, right next to the river. So if you want a great view of the river and be close to river -your going to be next to the rail road tracks. Since the Gorge is in... More

I don't know that I've ever stayed in a hotel that provided ear plugs before, but the soundproofing and windows must be very good becasue you could barely hear the trains with the balcony door and the window closed. A great view of the bridge and the river traffic, close to a good place to eat and a balcony, too!

We found out our original reservation for a family suite was altered once we arrived. The suite was being renovated so they put us in 2 adjoining rooms at the same rate. Which worked out even better for us. The rooms were updated and clean. Well appointed with kitchenettes. Our rooms looked over the river and up to the Bridge... More

First-class place to stay in Oregon. A very modern hotel with great service and staff located in a rustic town right on the river. We enjoyed the hiking trails that were close by, and it was easy to walk next door to the restaurant.
