Best Beach Hotels in Oregon

Sitting along Cannon Beach in northern Oregon, the Stephanie Inn convinces many visitors that it is one of the state's best seaside hotels. Recent guests praise the views of the Pacific Ocean and Haystack Rock as well as the customer service. And the chefs at the inn's Dining Room are no exception, serving up seasonal, locally inspired dishes that wow diners. Rooms have either a mountain or an ocean view, and some have fireplaces, to the delight of visitors. You'll also find comfortable beds and wet bars in your digs. The warm colors used to decorate the luxury hotel exemplify its homey character.

The Oxford Hotel brings some big-city luxury to the small town of Bend near the Willamette National Forest in central Oregon. The decor strikes travelers as surprisingly modern for such a small town. They also rave about the incredibly large rooms, complete with spacious bathrooms and plenty of in-room amenities like complimentary Wi-Fi, pillow-top mattresses, plasma TVs, Bose sound systems and 400-thread-count sheets. When it's time for a meal, guests can head to the hotel's 10below Restaurant & Lounge, which serves "urban-organic" cuisine from its menu of locally sourced food. Recent visitors also applaud the pleasant staff, bath butler service and pet-friendly policy.

Golfers adore the Salishan Resort in peaceful Gleneden Beach, Oregon. With several holes overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the golf course showcases its majestic setting. But guests also appreciate the indoor pool, tennis courts, spa and sizable fitness center. However, not everything is top-notch. Recent visitors say the guest rooms, though sizable and complete with great views, balconies and pillow-top mattresses, are sometimes plagued by noise pollution from the nearby highway.
