Tetherow Lodges is a four-pearl golf resort located just outside the Central Oregon city of Bend. It offers 50 rooms and suites with modern decor and fireplaces, many of which also have balconies and lovely views. For groups, there are also eight vacation rentals complete with patios and whirlpool hot tubs. Amenities are great for business travelers and vacationers alike and include a long outdoor pool, a high-end fitness center, and a decent choice of dining options -- and there are plenty more places to eat within a 10-minute drive from the hotel. Travelers wanting to be within walking distance of the breweries, shops, and restaurants of Bend may feel isolated here, however, and should look into more central alternatives such as The Oxford Hotel, located right in town.

The four-pearl Embassy Suites by Hilton Portland - Downtown has an Old Portland atmosphere and upscale but laid-back vibe that distinguishes it from a standard Embassy Suites property. Formerly the historic Multnomah Hotel, where Elvis stayed in 1957 and John F. Kennedy campaigned in 1960, the hotel has retained much of its original palatial architecture. The 276 rooms, including one- and two-bedroom suites, have been renovated, and some have conference tables and loft bedrooms. All come with 42-inch flat-screen HDTVs, microwaves, and mini-fridges. The hotel offers free hot breakfast to guests, as well as a business center and meeting spaces, a heated indoor freeform pool with whirlpool, a fitness center, and a game room. It also hosts a free evening cocktail reception. The downtown location is convenient to public transportation and several shops and eating places, but the immediate surroundings can feel a bit dicey, especially at night. Travelers might want to compare rates with the nearby Kimpton Hotel Monaco Portland, which is on a slightly less rowdy strip of downtown.

The two-pearl Motel 6 Redmond offers 100 clean rooms at a budget-friendly price in southern Redmond, an eight-minute drive from the airport. Despite the no-frills approach of the brand, there are a few nice features like a hot tub, free Wi-Fi, and free parking. Pets are welcome without a fee, as well. Simple rooms have flat-screen TVs with expanded cable channels, mini-fridges, and microwaves, but the open hanging spaces and lack of artwork creates a spartan feel. Those looking for a bit more in terms of style and amenities should check out Sleep Inn & Suites Redmond. The decor there is contemporary and features include a pool, gym, and free breakfast.

Unlike Portland's purposely retro hotels, the old-fashioned style at the Red Lion Hotel on the River is not intentional. The common areas at this mid-range property look like they were plucked from the '80s. The 320 rooms, however, were renovated in 2016 and feature contemporary (though bland) decor, flat-screen TVs, and marble bathrooms. The large property has a vaguely resort-like feel, centered around an outdoor pool and two tennis courts. There's a restaurant with river views and guests can use the hotel's dock. There are also a fitness center, 18 meeting rooms and two massive ballrooms. However, this megalith hotel on the river is removed from Portland's major attractions. It could be a good option for families who need an outdoor pool -- but travelers who have neither boats nor a specific reason to stay in the area might prefer a trendier spot closer to the action, like the downtown boutique Hi-Lo Hotel, Autograph Collection.

The 40-room Inn at Cannon Beach is a charming mid-range choice for those who don't mind being driving distance from the heart of the beach town. All rooms have microwaves, Keurig coffeemakers, gas fireplaces, and flat-screen TVs with DVD players, and some have whirlpool tubs. A buffet breakfast with continental items and waffles is included in the room rates at this pet-friendly property, and all guests get free access to the Canon Beach Fitness center and a free pass to Cannon Beach Yoga Arts. For something a little snazzier, guests should compare rates at the smaller Cannon Beach Hotel just down the road.

Renovated in 2017, The Duniway Portland, A Hilton Hotel is a four-pearl hotel that's within walking distance to major attractions, shopping, and dining in downtown Portland. Though it's primarily a business hotel, it also attracts a younger clientele with its celebrity chef-run restaurant, adjoining cocktail bar, and chill coffee bar. There's also an indoor lap pool and a fitness center. The 327 contemporary rooms feature mini-fridges, espresso machines, and huge 65-inch flat-screen TVs. Expect to pay extra for breakfast, parking, and Wi-Fi (free to all guests). It's worth comparing with the nearby four-and-a-half pearl Kimpton Hotel Monaco Portland, which has lower rates and adds a spa and pet goldfish to borrow.

Several design choices make the Hyatt Place Portland a little more boutique-like than most mid-range chain hotels. The gray stone-panel facade and crinkle-cut glass entryway starkly contrast with the 19th-century brick buildings found in much of the Old Port neighborhood. Original artwork and sculpted light fixtures hang in the lobby. Its 130 guest rooms have contemporary decor with clean lines. Each room also has a sitting area, plush bed, coffeemaker, mini-fridge, and free Wi-Fi. The on-site restaurant serves all-American fare, and breakfast is included with the room. Old Port is known for weekend revelers, and street noise seeps into the building, especially during the high season. Hotel amenities include an indoor pool, a fitness center, and meeting space. By comparison, the nearby Hampton Inn Portland Downtown Waterfront has similar features and more traditional decor, but rates can be higher.

It's a five-minute drive to the downtown area of Hood River, near wineries and restaurants, making it a good choice for those seeking solace in natural surroundings. The 37 units vary widely, but all have a European flair, with fireplaces and private balconies in the higher-priced units.

The Sandy Cove Inn is a charming and well-kept value motel with owners who live on-site. The 17 uniquely themed rooms range from a surfer’s paradise to a movie-inspired room complete with theater seating. For families or groups, there are two suites with kitchenettes, or two- to four-bedroom rental homes located nearby. This no-frills property doesn’t serve breakfast or have any amenities, but freebies include a movie library, parking, and coffee. The beach is a few blocks from the hotel, so guests seeking rooms directly on the promenade may want to consider the Inn at the Prom, though rates are higher.
