4-star hotels in Hood River
A shortlist of 4-star places to stay in Hood River, from townhomes and apartments to a hotel with family rooms. Every listing sits within 1.1 km of the centre, and three carry guest ratings of 4.8 or 4.9 out of 5. Aimed at couples, families and longer stays.
Staying in Hood River
Hood River sits on the Columbia River and is known for windsurfing and kiteboarding, its fruit orchards and wineries, and as a gateway to the Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood. Downtown is a compact core with shops, restaurants and a waterfront park, while the Columbia River waterfront is close to the event site and marina, a draw for windsurfers and anyone wanting river views. The wider area runs from quieter residential streets west of downtown to the orchards and valley views east along the river. Hikers, cyclists and skiers use it as a base, and events run through the year, among them the Hood River Valley Harvest Fest in October.
The places on this shortlist are all 4-star, and their addresses put them on the streets of the town itself: Lincoln Street, Wasco Street, State Street, Cascade Avenue, Columbia Street, Eugene Street, 13th Street, 3rd Street, Maxs Place and Redwood Road. They sit between 0.1 km and 1.1 km from the centre, so the closest stand 0.1 km out and the furthest 1.1 km. Most are apartments, townhomes or houses with kitchens and laundry facilities, which suits families and longer stays, while Horsefeathers Hotel adds family rooms, a garden and a 24-hour front desk.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Hood River is reached by car via Interstate 84, about an hour's drive east of Portland. The nearest major airport is Portland International Airport (PDX), roughly 60 miles away. Columbia Area Transit (CAT) runs buses connecting Hood River with surrounding communities and offers a link to Portland, and Amtrak's Empire Builder stops in nearby Bingen, Washington, across the river. Getting around is easiest by car, but downtown is walkable, and a local bus system serves the city and the valley. Bicycles are also a common way to explore, with designated routes.
When to go
Summer, June to August, is the most popular time, with warm, dry weather and strong winds for water sports. Spring and fall bring milder temperatures, fewer crowds and colourful scenery in the orchards. Winter can be cool and wet, with occasional snow, and is a good time for indoor activities and for seeing the gorge without the summer crowds. Events run through the year, including the annual Hood River Valley Harvest Fest in October.
