Lodge on a mountain
Great lodge feeling. Room was small and cozy. With three of us plus our dog inside it was a little difficult to have dinner (due to C-19 you have to eat in your room). Only thing I did not like was there was hair on the shower walls. Gross! I had to wash it down before I got in to shower.

Thank you for your kind words. I am terribly sorry our staff did not clean the shower to our standards. I have addressed this with our housekeeping team.

Wonderful old Lodge. Old and rustic tons of character. There was a mix up with our booking and they upgraded us to the Rosevelt Room!! That was awesome!! Food was amazing!! Definitely would stay again and again.

Great lodge staffed by great people.
A great lodge, we were there in stormy weather and enjoyed it immensely. Staff are incredible and really great! A fantastic lodge with such a wonderful history being built by the WPA. Our room was tremendous and fun to have a fireplace with plenty of wood. Beds very nice and we will return!!

breathtaking character in a beautiful lodge
Absolutely beautiful historic lodge. We were not impressed with the meal we had and less impressed with the price of the meal, we understand it’s a fancy ski lodge and expected to pay more for the meal but we did not get a meal that was worthy of the price. But the service was excellent. The entire lodge staff was excellent. The room was super cozy it’s a historic hotel so yes the walls are thin and the floors are creaky but they provide earplugs for sleeping and strongly enforce their quiet hours. We had no trouble sleeping without earplugs. The character of this lodge is absolutely breathtaking. When we stay again we will drive in town to eat but we would stay here again without question.

We love the historic nature of this lodge. The night we stayed it was a blustery and snowy October night. And the lodge was cozy with fires burning and a warm staff. Dinner at the lodge was a real treat.

Good deal for what you get
The front desk guy who I missed his name was very good to call me with my direct question that I had sent on hotels.com and was helpful on locating places that I need to hit before coming to the hotel. Though dog friendly and at no charge, no real dog areas and very busy street.

The historical building barely compensated for the high price and minimal comfort. I’ve never slept on a comforter on a soft box spring before. The plumbing groaned and the electric seemed unsteady. If this was a winter visit I wouldn’t be so critical as the snowy winter land would have absorbed the stark amenities.

Well it’s a 100 year old masterpiece with amazing history. And well... because it’s 100 years old you can hear everything. Nothing is private. And the pool was closed which I wish was published before I booked the room. Disappointed kids made the stay more challenging for sure.

I was really excited to stay here. We got a king room and it was large. There happened to be a snow storm while we were there. Internet went out and so did the heat. We were not given enough wood to keep us warm. Woke up constantly because of the cold. In the morning light there was snow on the inside of the window, wall and couch. Another set back is there isn’t a lot of food options. The food was yummy though

Amenities ok but the experience is always worth it
Room was as advertised and s expected. We were hoping for "hot" to help relax before next morning's hike up there mountain. Not hot not cold but disappointing. No hot water in shower at 10:30 at night. Beds were comfortable. Hot shower in the morning yay. Buffet breakfast was very good and reasonably priced. We've stayed here before and we'll stay here again. The lodge is pretty amazing structure worse and historically.

Wonderful historic inn
A wonderful historic inn and lovely experience. We stayed in a double bunk room which was very comfortable. The community bathrooms needed some work. Toilets didn’t work right and a faucet was leaking. Cascade Restaurant was excellent. It was clear and the views of Mt Hood and other snow covered mountains was spectacular. Totally worth it to stay at this WPA built gem of a lodge!

Not a Spa Retreat - But it’s Timberline Lodge!
Stayed in one of the bunk rooms on the main floor. The beds are pretty small but relatively comfortable. However, it is a historic building and the walls are very thin. There was a group of loud neighbors that kept us awake until midnight, which wasn’t so great. (We didn’t call the front desk, so this was partially on us. I’m sure the concierge would have helped.) It was great to stay at the mountain so it’s a mixed bag. I’ve been coming to Timberline since I was a child, so it’s worth it to be in such an amazing, historic place. Just don’t come here for a spa retreat - no spa and not super peaceful.

Hi there, We are sorry to hear that you weren't comfortable. Hopefully if you visit us in the future you will have a more comfortable stay. Our prices do peak in summer and winter seasons. Unfortunately because it is a historic lodge built in 1981 the rooms are smaller than average. Thanks for the feedback!

Stay here if you can!
This hotel is WORTH IT! We could only stay one night on our trip but it was so great we will stay again. We did the two bunk bed room so it was small and we share a bathroom with others but everything was clean and since you dont spend much time in your room at a lodge like this it was perfect. They have a guest laundry which is wonderful and allowed us to refresh for the remainder of our trip. We took a ranger led tour of the lodge which was so great as we learned a lot and found things we never would have otherwise. Had a custom drink at the Blue Ox bar and breakfast in the main dining. Both great experiences. If you're going to mt hood this lodge is a must! PS: love they embrace the connection to The Shinning!
