Cannery Pier Hotel is a luxury boutique hotel that sits practically on top of the Columbia River; it's literally built 600 feet out into the water on top of the pilings of the old Union Fish Cannery. With outstanding views (rooms look directly out onto the river) and upscale amenities, the hotel is a good choice for the high-end traveler who doesn't mind that it's located a bit more than a mile from the center of Astoria. It's a better choice for couples than families, as there's plenty of romantic touches inside the guest rooms -- like gas fireplaces -- and in common spaces -- like a nightly wine reception -- geared towards adults. There's an on-site spa, fitness center, free Wi-Fi, complimentary daily breakfast, and two classic cars that shuttle guests around the area -- but no restaurant on-site.

The lower-middle-range Holiday Inn Express and Suites Astoria has an outstanding location on the shores of the mighty Columbia River, in the shadow of the majestic Astoria-Megler Bridge. A hike/bike path meanders along the river between the water and hotel, offering a great place to watch big freighters pass by. While it’s too far to walk into downtown Astoria for most guests, it’s a very short drive or trolley ride. Amenities include free breakfast, a pool, event space, laundry facilities, and free parking and Wi-Fi. However, the small fitness room is a bit of a letdown. Guest rooms are clean, comfortable, and include Keurig coffeemakers, mini-fridges, and microwaves, plus many have unobstructed river/bridge views. Do compare rates with the Hampton Inn & Suites Astoria, another riverfront hotel with similar amenities that’s on the other side of downtown Astoria.

The lower-middle-range Hampton Inn & Suites Astoria has a picturesque location on the gorgeous Columbia River, near a pier where sea lions congregate. A path outside the hotel provides a great place to stroll along the river. Downtown is not within walking distance, but most everything in town is a short drive away. This modern hotel opened in 2012 with many attractive amenities including Hampton’s free hot breakfast, a spacious pool/whirlpool, guest laundry facilities, a business center, meeting space for up to 210 people, and free parking and Wi-Fi. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, if a bit generic. Many face the river and have balconies with panoramic views.
