Pros

Direct access to 12 miles of paved cycling and running paths along the Willamette River

Nightly wine tastings featuring exclusive LaVelle Vineyards selections

Each room includes a private balcony or patio with river or pool views

Located moments from the largest enclosed mall between Portland and San Francisco

Cons

12.5 miles distance from Eugene/Mahlon Sweet Field Airport

Seasonal outdoor pool not available year-round

“This riverfront hotel strikes me as a particularly solid choice in Eugene; the recent renovations appear to have been well-executed, judging by the spacious rooms and updated bathrooms. Its proximity to the riverfront paths and the draw of a proper swimming pool definitely elevate it beyond the standard roadside stop, making it a place I'd consider for a longer stay.”
