On the ocean and downtown!
This is a lovely little Boutique Hotel with a trolley stop and walking distance to everything in town. Comes complete with sea lions underneath the structure- if you're a light sleeper you will want those earplugs they provide.

My new favorite hotel
I had high expectations coming here and they exceeded every one of them. Room 40 is beautiful and the view from your bed makes you never want to leave. The food is out of this world, and the staff is so kind and friendly. If you do decided to venture out there is so much to do within walking distance. I really can't recommend this place enough.

Our room was amazing! Staff was extremely sweet and accommodating. We love staying here every time we visit Astoria.
This hotel was spectacular. The staff were so nice and helpful. It’s a very cool retro type building with beautiful rooms, a quaint bar and restaurant. It’s right on the water and it was fun watching cargo ships go by. We sat by the fire pit after dinner. Our bed was comfortable and the in room amenities were very nice. We had a great breakfast before leaving. Try the yogurt and granola! I’d highly recommend this hotel.

Most comfortable bed and pillows ever!
Amazing staff, great room and view! Very clean and unique. Most comfortable bed and pillows we’ve ever had at a hotel! We love everything about this place. My wife travels all over the U.S., all the time and this is her favorite room she has ever had.

Excellent hotel
Great time. Staff was extremely helpful with directions and suggestions for food. The hotel is very nice and being right on the water is very cool. The saunas were easy to use and the windows made the experience very cool during sunset.

Lovely property and surroundings, walkable with nice selection of restaurants and shops.
The setting for this hotel is absolutely spectacular: right on the water's edge of the Columbia River, with the Astoria bridge nearby. We stayed in the top-floor Luxe Ice room, which had awesome views of the river in two sides, a modern bathroom with two-person walk-in shower and separate toilet. The bed was a bit lumpy for us, but a large king. Nice fireplace right in the room. The outdoor two-person saunas with views of the river through circular portholes, are a really nice touch. Some quibbles: room was a little dusty in places, and it is a bit overpriced, even for the excellent amenities
