- Ebear941Salt Lake City, Utah3 contributionsGreat property would definitely stay here again.This was my first time in Bend Oregon and staying at the River House on the Deschutes. I had a river facing room and it was amazing. Super convenient to downtown I would absolutely stay here again. I ate at the restaurant for dinner one night and breakfast a falling morning and both work great.Greetings! It was an honor to have hosted you for your first time in the beautiful Bend. We are thrilled to know that you appreciated our comfortable accommodations and scenic views of the incredible Deschutes River. Our short distance to Downtown makes it incredibly easy to enjoy all the activities that the city has to offer, and we are happy to know you were able to take advantage.

- SDJASan Francisco, California113 contributionsAmazing DealWe were very fortunate to be the beneficiaries of an incredible $89/night COVID rate. And for that rate, this hotel was magnificent. Staff was very friendly. Overall the room was very clean when we arrived though the bathrooms could have been cleaned a bit better. But not too bad. The bathroom themselves were relatively new and in great condition, at least in the room where we stayed. The room was very big. We had a nice fireplace with a nice Duraflame log. We had a small balcony from which we could see the river. If it wasn’t so cold, we would have left the balcony door open and listen to the sound of the flowing river. The dining facilities were closed, but they provided complimentary breakfast to-go bags with yogurt, fruit and breakfast sandwich. They also had coffee, tea and hot chocolate in the Lobby. There was no housekeeping service during our two day stay (understandable due to COVID), but the staff were very prompt to provide fresh towels, coffee cartridges, etc when needed. There was a microwave and a fridge in our room. No complaints whatsoever. If you are traveling through Bend and need to stay overnight, this would be a great choice if for nothing else than to have a fireplace in your room and a terrific view of the river from your balcony.Thank you for visiting and taking a moment to share feedback from your recent stay. Creating a comfortable environment paired with exceptional service is what we strive for every day at Riverhouse on the Deschutes! We're happy to know you had a pleasant experience and enjoyed the comfort of your guest room. As you mentioned, some services are altered or limited to ensure your safety, and we appreciate your understanding. We enjoyed hosting you and look forward to welcoming you back the next time you're in Bend!Written December 24, 2020This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Date of stay: December 2020Traveled with familyWritten December 23, 2020
- Brian OlsonSonoma, California8 contributionsSpectacular location on the Deschutes. Decent Lodge.This property is stunning in that it sits on both sides of the Deschutes River. The staff is friendly and the room was clean. Our room included a river view and was exactly as advertised. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. There were a couple of opportunities with this hotel. 1- When we requested that our room be refreshed, they did not change our sheets as requested and they did not supply us with a Duraflame log. They don't even use real wood. 2- The restaurant Currents has a Caesar Salad that was really poor. Two wedges of Romaine with a light sprinkling of Parmesan and almost no dressing. Do not get the Caesar. I was surprised. Food overall was just ok. I wasn’t expecting perfection however I would say this hotel is just good, definitely not great.Date of stay: July 2020Written July 9, 2020

I can't fathom why these reviews are mostly good- Our room on the river on the ground floor was not good with people walking by all day and a crappy view of the river. I think a step in the room connecting to the bathroom is dangerous at night and for the money I expected more. Also the food we ordered was bad...

View from our River View room, was fabulous. I fell asleep listening to the river rushing over the rocks. Not river sounds on my cell but the real deal. Beds were clean and comfortable. The bar had great services and delicious cocktails. Close to everything you would want to experience in Bend.

This was my second stay here, both for business events held in the conference center. On the plus side, the staff is very nice and seem eager to please. The conference facilities are nice and walkable from the rooms. As for the accommodations, the building exteriors are not impressive and give you a sense that you’re entering a motor lodge from the 1970s. The interior hallways give the same vibe and the dirty laundry bins left by the staircases are not what you expect to see in a nicer hotel. The rooms are nicer than the exterior and hallways would leave you to believe. Both stays my room was very clean and this time, the bathroom appeared to have been recently renovated. If you’re going to stay here, I would definitely recommend booking a room with a river view. I was in the Steelhead building and the non-river view rooms had patios facing the parking lot. I can’t imagine sitting on my patio for relaxation with cars pulling in and out of the parking lot. One last issue if you are mobility-challenged. There wasn’t an elevator to second floor rooms so I had to carry my own bags up; not that fun when you’ve got a bad knee.…

Nice room, clean, not worth the high price we paid but it’s peak season. The pools were on the cold side. No elevator to second floor so be aware if you have mobility issues. Overall could use a sprucing up, especially hallways. River was lovely, unfortunately we did not have a river view room.

We have stayed at this hotel multiple times in the past 8 years. Previous stays have been very good to excellent. This time, it was below average. First off, we were put in a room that wasn't very clean and needed renovation. Then the cable was out during our entire 2 night stay. When we checked in, we were not notified of this and when I talked to the front desk, I was told about it. No apology, no offer for late checkout or free brunch. The gentleman ahead of me threw a fit about the type of room he was assigned and was given a free brunch. Maybe I needed to act horribly to get good service? The other thing is that there was no housekeeping service. We had to request clean towels and other items from the front desk. COVID-19 is over, why no service? There were bins of dirty linens at the entrance to our building all weekend as well. Not something I want to see or smell when paying over $300 per night. We won't be back, very disappointing.…

I'm definitely coming back to Bend, Oregon! When I do l'II be sure to stay here again! The staff from the shuttle, restaurant and front desk who encountered were all of great help! They make you feel like you are VIP. Perry was especially of great help with my stay! He made it great! This hotel is the perfect location for downtown and the convention center. The view from the restaurant is the best with the river stream right there. Sitting outside was relaxing while hearing the water. Highly recommend this hotel!

I absolutely love this property! I booked Riverhouse on the Deschutes for our high school baseball team and families for a 5 day tournament. We were so happy with our stay. Everyone on the staff was super friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Several families received upgrades to a river view room, the rooms were very comfortable, and the river views and sounds made us feel like we were on vacation rather than at a baseball tournament. There is a small refrigerator in the room as well as a microwave. Air conditioning worked great which was needed on those hot days after playing baseball in the heat. The outdoor pool is heated and was quite lovely. The indoor pool has a lap section for swimming and was even warmer than the outdoor pool. The hot tub was down for maintenance, so we didn't get to use that. There are pool towels for guests and a fire pit, but it wasn't lit. The restaurant is fabulous! Sitting on the deck overlooking the river was magical and the food was terrific. The bar area was also enjoyed by adults. There's corn hole boards on property as well as a pool table. There's a shopping mall across the street with additional restaurants within walking distance. We will absolutely stay here again next year when we come back to Bend for this baseball tournament. I will also recommend this property to friends and family. You won't be disappointed. …

Two stars for the facility. -3 stars are for the service. We made reservations months ago and arrive to find that our room was not ready. They state that it will be ready by 4 o’clock so we waited till 4 o’clock and heard nothing. Then I went up and said any update on our room. He says I have a room for you And signed us all up for this room. However, it was not the room that we requested and it asked when will he the one we requested be ready. And they said oh could be 5 o’clock. So we waited and about 10 before five got notified that the room was ready. Owning over 700 rental units myself I recognize it isn’t just a good facility you need you need service. The front Dash should have shared so sorry that this room is not ready yet and said go to the bar and have a couple of drinks. No nothing not friendly at all. After all this is the first impression you get when you come there. Now for the room. It took 2 to 4 flushes and a coat hanger to get the toilet cleared. Nice. Since the phone didn’t work in the room, I called the hotel and of course no one answers, and I have to leave a voice message. This was the second time I reported the phone problem and again nothing happened. A nice hotel, but terrible service.…
