Room - 4 - king bed with river view and fireplace was a beautiful room, but there are major maintenance issues. Toilet would often continually run and not stop. Sink is dangerously faulty. You turn cold water lever and the water got increasingly hot. Got burned a few times. Fireplace was a great touch, but they forgot to provide a duraflame log and matches, so we had to request for them to be delivered. Heater was faulty - the heater kept running even though you turned it to 60 degrees. Then, the heater stopped turning on. Fortunately, it was not extremely cold that night. TV aspect ratio was not adjustable, so all the shows were all squished which were annoying. Bed was large and comfortable. Large refrigerator with freezer. Room was very spacious and two sinks was a nice bonus. Service - 2 - This is where they need work. While I understand they do not provide housekeeping service during covid, they have made zero accomodations for this. Yes, you can call for missing items and they will deliver it in a timely manner. This should not be necessary, if they know there are two people and we are staying for 2 nights. They provided us with 1 roll of toilet paper, 2 towels, no duraflame/matches. They should provide us with 2 towels per a day and 3 duraflame logs for each day in advanced. Front desk provides misinformation. We called before our pool reservation and asked whether we have to change into our swimwear in our room, or are there change rooms at the pool. They told us we could change at the pool and there would be towels. When we checked in for our pool reservation at the front desk, they told us we have to change in the room. That made us 20 minute late and only gave us 40 mins for the pool. Also, there were no towels. Price - 3 - During covid, they do not provide housekeeping service. Understandable, but that should result in reduced pricing. $200/night is high with an unserviced room. Amenities - 1 - restaurant and pool. Restaurant is horrible. Teapot was oily and dusty. They don't use real eggs for their omelets. Food is really expensive. Limited menu. Eat elsewhere!!! They are not following covid protocol for the pool reservations. They can be better. They are not enforcing social distancing. First, 15 people for a hot tub is way too large. With social distancing, you can fit 5 couples. Parties were not social distancing from each other. No one was honoring the reservations and overstaying. We had 25 people at one point in the pool. They should have hot tub or pool reservations. We would not have taken the reservations, if we knew there were 10 people already using the hot tub. They should have indoor pool lighting. It was so dark...it was a safety hazard. read more

Chopped Caeser was huge pieces of lettuce tossed in a flavorless dressing with a few croutons NOT A CHOPPED SALAD. They comped a breakfast holandaise sause was cold and straight out of the can NOT HOMEMADE. Rooms needed deeper cleaning for the prices they carge and you have to request maid servce or you just do not get any. Heater broke in the middle of Nov. I froze. Came home and saw they charged $200 over the price I was quoted. They are working on it. Too many problems there and not good management (I can testify to that) Dead bulb, patio door broken . read more

We have stayed here before and loved it. This time it was awful! When we called to complain the lady at the front refused to send a manager and advised me to watch my tone. Absolutely horrid experience. Will never go here again. The service was terrible and the quality of the room was just absurd. I wouldn't even make my dog stay here. read more

I love Bend, and use to live here...This place has family history...from company dinners, car rallies, Christmas functions, weddings, fashion shows, birthdays, ECT... I've seen this place at it's best and worst. Love a room by the river, and in summer enjoying its sounds and the scent of pines...and the lava rock all about...can sit on my deck, and meditate. Priceless. The staff has always been good for us, clean,accommodating. Now the restaraunt has been GREAT, at times and not so great... And room service has always rocked...they even brought us a table and chairs to enjoy a candle light meal... Our room was cozy, and inviting... Lot to do in Bend, and this place is close to everything... read more

Really cool place! My and my significant other stayed here for the first time in Bend and really enjoyed the time spent here. At first I was thrown off by being put in a room on the opposite side of the river and hotel lobby but getting over there and checking into the room, we discovered the bridge crossing between the two hotel buildings is really nice! It is literally a 1-2 minute walk if that!! The hotel bar and restaurant is right there as well. Let me give a huge shout out to Steve the bartender though brotha! Because of our experience here, we will be visiting back next summer on a much longer stay. read more

Always a nice room, clean, comfortable and nice staff. The bartender was great and the food was excellent.

5 stars for room: spacious, clean, super quiet, amazingly comfortable bed. Only 2 stars for the restaurant (called Currents): while the atmosphere was superlative (dining by the Deschutes River was lovely), the food for dinner was not great and crazily overpriced. The sides were over salted and/or too heavily sauced or just not particularly good. It would have been fine at $20 for the meal, but we paid $90 before tip. For two people, 1 entree, and 2 cocktails. Meh. We'd definitely stay at the hotel again, but we would *not* do dinner at Currents. Perhaps breakfast or something not too complicated or costly would be okay there, but no deal on dinner. read more

Staff and accommodations are exceptional!!! I can't wait to return. Location is wonderful and hotel restaurant staff and food are worth just staying in house! read more

Nice enough hotel. Food however was excessively overcooked. Don't bother responding to the question "how do you want it cooked?" There's well done and well done. Order the ahi poke at least the cook cant screw that up. read more

Stayed one night on our way out of Bend. Dinner at the Currents restaurant in the bar. pricey meals, which is what we expected. But we did not expect to be served a $13 dinner (field greens) salad with molded radishes and when we pointed it out to the server, she said she'd inform the kitchen. Still charged full price for the bad salad. Fool me once Shane on you, fool me twice.... naw... not gonna happen a second time. We won't be back. You'f think they'd care about their reputation. Oh but the RIVER.... yes, it's lovely but skip the food if you go! read more

The only thing this place has going for it is the staff. Every person I encountered was happy and helpful. The river is nice too but it comes at a premium. That being said, if you don't pay for a river view you'll get a room overlooking the parking lot. Our room was dark and dated but clean-ish. Even though the AC in our room said 61, we had to go buy a fan because it was nowhere near 61 degrees. No premium channels on the tv. The hot tub was ice cold and the outdoor pool was cloudy and full of debris. There's no housekeeping due to COVID so you need to request extra coffee, toiletries and towels plus take out your trash. For $300 a night for a mid-week stay, it's a no for me. Next time we'll find a cheaper place downtown. read more

5 stars is not enough in my opinion! Tom checked us in and upgraded our room to a riverview/balcony and fire place. He was so great! All of the staff was extremely helpful and so friendly! Shelly was a miracle worked and was able to make it to where we didn't have to switch rooms on our last night. I love hearing the river from my bed. Location is perfect! The restaurant was so good and sits right on the river. We loved Bend and can not wait to come back to the Riverhouse!! We were also traveling with our dog and they are very pup friendly! read more

BEAUTIFUL and such friendly staff!!! To top it off our driver from GiddyUp both ways to there and the airport was outstanding and beyond reliable. Such good energy all around. Highly recommend. read more

Just stayed at River house. Wow what a great place. My room was perfect. Staff were wonderful. I at at the currents restaurant . It was wonderful. This is a beautiful place with great staff. Please stay here when you can. Thanks so much . read more

Great location, but you'll have to ignore the gross wear and tear and lack of maintenance. Restaurant and bar are nice however, cause that's where the money's at. Oh, and no elevators for second floor rooms. Pack light. read more

This place was lovely to stay at over the weekend. The rooms are comfortable and they have great amenities (TV, microwave, fridge and a Kurig) the staff is friendly and it is located in a really nice part of town! We came here to see the last blockbusters so we definitely enjoyed staying in bed at the hotel. The food at the restaurants in property are also pretty decent! read more

This is a place to sleep. The lobby has been nicely updated. The room are a bit dicey. Our toilet has not been scrubbed properly, our room smells like dog pee. My niece's room got broken into while we were out. The slider door was wide open and her suitcase was gone. My nieces room also had snacks from the previous tenants under the coffee table. There are wet spots on the ground. The hot tub was sketchy, but we turned the jets on to hide the state of the floor. The jets create a light ripple , but no actual bubbles in the hot tub. There was a suspicious person walking around the pool building. The bar is only open from 4-10, but the bartender was awesome! read more

Stayed twice and both times were horrific. The room smelled I asked housekeeping for room freshener that I sprayed. The surfaces were dirty as I clean my surfaces with alcohol when I travel. I was told no late. I asked for a late check out and anything last 11 was 90 dollars They do not answer their phones when u need towels or a fire log bury request u don't go to the Lobby. Not sure how you get proper service. It has seriously declined and they use Covid to treat the guests as an inconvenience. My food was left uncovered cold outside my door with no silverware or salt and pepper. I did not eat it obviously. The facility I has gorgeous views that rooms are nice if cleaned properly. I did not feel safe and though I gave it two chances since I was a big fan in the 90 s it is absolutely subpar for what it could be! read more

While the room could use a bit of carpet updating, it was otherwise very clean, had a comfortable bed, was generously stocked with bathroom needs (Love extra towels for those of us with long-hair), had a fanTAStic river view and the sound of the river rushing by was so relaxing, plus breakfast was as good as anywhere in town... Best of all was the manager, Perry. He's so wanting to please and follows up doing so far beyond what one might expect. He's a caring difference maker and a rarified very good guy. Thank you sooooo much, Perry! We'll be back and look very forward to seeing you then! read more

Good location, with a nice view of the River. However, a few things to consider before booking. First, no maid service (which we were told due to Covid). But, when we'd ask for towels, coffee, etc. it was always a wait. I believe that hotels are now using this as an excuse to lower expenses, but they don't lower the rate. Next, I called guest services to ask for 4 wine glasses since we were having a drink in our room with another couple that was staying there. We were told that "the bar couldn't spare four glasses so two people would have to drink wine out of beer glasses". Interesting, but we made due, just sad that they wouldn't provide these to us. Also, the pool closed too early given it's not even connected to the hotel. On our last morning we thought we'd hit the hot tub and were told it wouldn't open til 8am. I said since it's 7:50 am could they just open it a few minutes early. We were told flatly- no. Then we learned from a housekeeper that apparently they wouldn't open it until 10am for some unknown reason. Lastly, the indoor pool is literally too cold to get into. It would be so nice if it were heated, but instead it was unusable - I didn't see it used once in the 3 days we were there. I would look for another hotel in Bend if/when I return. read more

This is a pet-friendly hotel, but we felt like second-class citizens. To begin their designated pet rooms face the loud main road. You are told you will receive complimentary dog treats but we didn't get anything. We happened to be on the ground floor, and the entire walk area next to the pet room doors was lined with a dirty carpet. I didn't quite understand the carpet as this area was outdoors, but maybe the concrete below was covered in filth. Inside the room was just as bad. There were visible stains and wet areas on the carpet. The shower had pink mildew in the tile grout, the tub floor had smudge marks, and the tub had a clog. The bathroom issues would be an easy fix with cleaning, but I suppose they don't make this a priority. I purposefully chose this hotel as I was hoping the higher price meant better pet rooms. I'll be sure to avoid this hotel in the future. This practice of placing pet owners in gross rooms far from other guests really upsets me as my pets are well trained. The next day we traveled another few hours to Ashland and stayed at the Lithia resort. Their pet rooms are immaculate and they have tile flooring. I hope the management at Riverhouse takes note and looks to the Lithia resort on how they should treat pet-owning guests. read more

Never been to Bend, OR. We saw the add and this place looked really nice with great river views..our room was in the back next to a dumpster and construction. Not at all as advertised. Our TV didn't work, the shower didn't work. We went to dinner and the burger was raw and waitress obviously had better things to do than her job because she was annoyed at any inconvenience. No apologies, she did take the burger off, however not mine. We were able to move rooms..again TV not working. We said we would like to stay elsewhere, they said they would fix it so now we are waiting. It took 3hrs last time we asked. read more

Just checked in and asked staff if they were vaccinated. Person checking us in was not and spewed conspiracy theory about vaccines. Masks not mandated here. This puts all visitors at risk. Avoid staying in Bend read more

Hotels is nice. When we checked in, we were told the pool was open, yet the website said it was closed. Was not informed that our room would not be cleaned after our first night. We were wondering why we did not get new towels and the bed was not made. It would have been nice to know WHEN WE CHECKED IN. This was due to being short staffed. read more

We arrived at RiverHouse Lodge on July 15th, 2024. Upon checking in at the counter receptionist wanted to charge me $25 nonrefundable admin fee and $50 refundable damage deposit. I refused to pay the admin fee so she waived that right away and scanned my credit card to hold my damage deposit. That night we wanted to take shower but the cleaning maid did not fill the body soap pump bottle. I made a total of 3 calls to get someone to bring us shower soap. It took them over one and a half hours to get someone to do it. We ended up taking our shower after 10:00 pm. We checked out the next morning and I asked the front desk about my damage deposit and she said she credited to my card. After I got home from my road trip and went online to check. To my surprise they only credited me $2.98 out of $50. I contacted them and I wanted to know why I only received partial refund. The customer service told me she will let the Bookeeper know. It has been over a week since I made the call no one from RiverHouse has got back to me. This is my first time staying at this place and it will be the last. Not worth it. read more

Nice facility with friendly and helpful staff. We encountered a problem with a noisy neighbor. Between the loud neighbor and his barking dog it was a rough night. We gave it a few hours. Called the front desk a few times to have the issue addressed and ultimately ended up switching rooms around 4AM. Again the staff were great, it was just a rough night with a few hours of sleep once we moved. If you decide to stay here go for a room with a river view. Opening the door and hearing the rushing water is pure perfection. Ultimately I'm not sure that we would stay here again after this visit. I'm sure this is an exception to norm. It was just hard on us since we traveled all day and ended up not sleeping that night. read more

Thanks to another yelp search, we happened at this quaint but established inn. For a quick trip to Bend, we wanted something with more of a "local vibe" but not run down. Upon check in, we were greeted by Kayla who was energetic and eager to answer all of our questions. Such a relief to find accommodating customer service, even at 1am. As we swung the door open to our room, we were amazed at the size of the room! We're from Texas, where.."Everything is Bigger" and the extra space was such a nice surprise. Did I mention they had TWO sinks - one in the bathroom and one outside the bathroom. Liked that design. Most of the weekend we were out so we didn't dine at the Currents restaurant but for brunch on the day before departure. That didn't disappoint either- the blueberry park cakes are to die for! (Thank you Logan for the recommendation). And the scenery by the flowing water was so relaxing. You won't be sorry you stopped in, even if it's just for a quick bite. Staff is so friendly and welcoming. Thank yall! read more

Riverhouse has been a great experience for me. From the minute I checked in with Camille all of the staff has been extremely helpful and always smiling. Camille checked me in during a busy time and set me up with a great room and instructions on what to do at Riverhouse and in town. Ethan at the bar was also very helpful and provided great service. From Riverhouse I've ridden my mountain bike up at Cascade Lakes and played golf at River's Edge and Widgi. Next stop is Boise _) read more

Stayed for one night in a suite with the river view. Yeah, the Deschutes is not exactly the Columbia or Williamette, but it's still nice to have it right outside there for the atmosphere. I love the ambient noise it generates too. And a heron landed right outside our room and posed so my wife could take pics, how cool is that? The room itself was spacious. Huge living room with a nice sized TV, a couch, a chair, and a real table with 4 chairs, perfect for a game of cards. I'm not a coffee person but I used a Keurig for the first time anyway to enjoy a cup of hot tea. Bedroom was separated with a door and had its own TV and the door onto the porch. Customer service was top notch, friendly in person and they texted a few times, not spam-y at all, just nice some nice greetings and thank yous. Did not try the restaurant or any of the amenities. It was a little spendy, but it was also a little nicer than a cheap place. We very well might stay here again. read more

Worst dining experience last night that we have ever had at The Riverhouse and we have lived in Bend for 45 years. The servers were overextended. We made a reservation for the restaurant but sat in the bar for 55 minutes waiting for a table because the hostess thought we were just going to eat in there, even though we talked to her 2 other times while waiting to say we were still waiting. Got to our table at 9pm and it was already last call, had been without drinks for at least 30 minutes waiting. The food was very mediocre. Over cooked burger and mediocre mac and cheese. Probably won't return here for awhile. read more

This place has been on my "one day I'm gonna stay there" lists for years. We came into town for an anniversary redo (thanks Covid) for a weekend. We stayed in a river facing Delux King on the second floor. Compared to typical hotel rooms, this was very spacious. There was plenty of room to spread out. The room itself is beautiful and the view from the balcony can't be beat. There was a stale odor to the room and my assumption is that perhaps it isn't being rented as often as normal? We did have a little mishap in the bathroom where a hand towel from the previous occupant had been left hanging over the shower rod and was crumpled up in the shower curtain. This was unpleasant to discover upon taking a shower but a call to the front desk resulted in them trying to make it right with us immediately. They offered to move us to another room but it was almost 10pm and didn't want to pack up and move at that time. They sent someone from housekeeping up to retrieve the towel, brought us fresh towels and gave us 10% off for the stay. Staff were very friendly and attentive, the grounds are beautiful and all in all the stay was comfortable and I would absolutely stay again. read more

The riverside dining is the only reason I'm giving this restaurant 3 stars. The wait staff was good but the meal was so-so. We split a salad and a Reuben sandwich and they both were delivered at the same time. The $15 lettuce had perhaps a total of three tomatoes and just a sprinkle of bacon...definitely not worth it. The Reuben was toasted not grilled. We won't be going back. read more

We had a great time here. Brunch on Sunday was perfect. We sat at the bar and had a fresh squeezed cocktail and some yummy brunch fair .. I had huevos Ranchero with chorizo it had three corn tortillas stacked with very flavorful chorizo and a perfectly fried egg that had a yelp worthy runny yolk. It's very nice inside but we were wearing our yoga type clothing and felt comfortable .. the bar tender and staff were so friendly.. I'm definitely going back : ) read more

Great place to stay. This is my first time in Bend, my wife really enjoyed the river running just outside of our room. The room itself was very comfortable and actually larger than I expected. The bed was one of those that you really don't want to get out of but it's the only way that you can sit on the balcony and enjoy the view of the river while enjoying your morning coffee. My wife and I had a great time just walking the entire property. If you're ever in Bend book yourself a couple of nights here, one night is not enough and say hi to Bobby at the front desk and Taren in the restaurant they both went above and beyond. This may have been our first time but definitely not our last. read more

Mostly, this was a comfortable hotel. We were traveling with a dog and making reservations at the last minute so our choices were limited. The negative of Riverhouse is that it isn't located close enough to walk to a good park or to the downtown. It is a pretty spot on the river but there isn't river access. We enjoyed a casual dinner in the bar and could watch sit side by side eating and watching a game. I don't remember the food except to say that it was decent. read more

Really amazing. Wonderful friendly staff room was beautiful. Bathroom was beautiful, nice fixtures and design choices. Faux sea grass wallpaper ( classy) and river view made me want to stay in room Rather than walk and see Bend. I'd definitely stay again. my advice? Pay the extra money and get river view. Life is short a d money can easily be made. read more

This is definitely an overpriced motel 6. Don't let the pics and lobby fool you. I paid $271 for a river view and the worst nights sleep! 1- doors slam when they close so every time someone comes in the building you awaken from noise and from your door shaking 2- popcorn ceilings and low vault ceilings 3- rickety, falling apart sliding door to patio 4- bed as hard as a rock. If you like sleeping on the floor this is the place for you. 5- pretty sure the bottles of water, whatever brand it is, was just refilled with tap. We stayed one night too many. Dont stay here!! read more
