Very nice hotel.

This is a very nice hotel, clean, modern close to shopping and dining. The trail next to the hotel is an outstanding feature, and the Japanese Maples on the property are simply lovely. Would stay here again without hesitation.

Delightful experience in Eugene

Have stayed at VRI many times - always good. Love the river view rooms. Very nice updating since the remodel
Jefferson, 1-night trip

Pleasantly surprised!

The hotel and restaurant has been updated since the last time we stayed.
Gregory, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Would come again!

Great experience for the stay. Stopped through Eugene on a road trip and looked at a number of different hotels. Valley River said they just renovated so we figured it must be clean, new, and a good overall option, which this most definitely was! Would stay again as the room was spacious, shower was nice, and bathroom was large. Nothing but positives here.
Evan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent place but dated despite renovations

Convenient location near restaurants and some shopping. Walking trail along the river was a nice amenity. Older hotel that has been renovated reasonably well. Many archaic design elements still remain though making the hotel feel dated. Not having a complimentary water or basic drip coffee service was a let down. Overall not a bad place to stay but I’ll probably look for a more modern hotel next time.
Anthony, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Alex and the ladies at the front desk went above and beyond to help make my one night stay very comfortable! We got stuck in Eugene without any provisions and they gladly provided all the necessary comfort items that one might need.
Melissa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Large rooms

Our family stayed at Valley River Inn while visiting our daughter at UO. Rooms were big, they accommodated a last minute 2nd reservation. Beds were comfy, water didn't get really hot, we had slow service one morning for breakfast but fast the next day . Good location
Amy, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location, reasonably comfortable, overpriced.

It took a long time to check in, only one person working the counter, she said the computer system was having issues. Room was clean, shower was nice, bed ok. They have a restaurant in-house that was comfortable and good food. They do not provide any coffee/breakfast for their guests and tell you there is an Elmers next door. A little spendy for what you get.
Brett, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

They close the pool in the winter

Pool is closed in the winter. Even though they advertise they have a pool. Not cool When you have two little kids that drove 3 hours.
Damon, 1-night trip

Beautiful Valley River Inn

So exciting to be back at Valley River Inn. It was even more gorgeous than I remembered. It lives up to its name—the river views from the room and restaurant were spectacular.

Barbara, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We booked a river view, but were given a ground floor unit with an obstructed river view. There was shrubbery that blocked much of the river view from the window. It's not accurate advertising to call some of the ground floor units at this hotel "river view." They should be called "partial river view" so people know what they are paying for.

Great clean hotel & convenient to dining & shopping! Would stay here again!

What's bugging us...

It startedboff delightful as the lobby and staff were very nice. The rooms are large and comfortable. However after showering we discovered ants inthe bathroom and on the counter. The front desk responded and gave us another room. This was at 10 pm. The new room waa on the second floor which we discovered in the morning also had ants in the bathtub.
Lisa, 1-night trip

We enjoyed being near family, by the water with the walking/biking path, and by the mall with lots of shops and restaurants.
