Great place to stay in Eugene
Pros:

Was our second stay here in 7 days and this time they gave us a room on 1st floor in North Building. They gave us a room facing the courtyard instead of the parking lot which was greatly appreciated. Comfortable room and bed . Front desk employees friendly and helpful

Cons:

The shower didn’t drain that quickly

Beautiful, peaceful, very clean and friendly place.
Pros:

I loved the warm and cozy decor of the lobby, the cleanliness of the entire hotel including my room being perfectly cleaned, the location being right on the river makes it sooooo peaceful and the free shuttle service. The front desk staff was nice too and it’s located in a nice convenient area. Lastly, the restaurant ambiance was great with its beautiful river view, and the servers and hosts were absolutely delightful. They were so friendly and courteous. One of my favorite things was the tea pot in the room!!! It was adorable and there was a great selection of teas. As a tea drinker, I don’t often get that luxury in hotel rooms.

I loved it so much that I want to return for a vacation with others and stay in Valley River Inn again.

Cons:

The restaurant servers and hosts were absolutely woooonderful but the food was not great. My medium well burger was not not medium well. It extremely dry and not well seasoned. But I was very hungry and don’t sending food back. I did inform the server and she was apologetic.

Amazing hotel at a competitive price.
Pros:

The Valley River Inn is amazing: 1) the staff understands customer service by always being helpful; 2) the rooms are extremely comfortable and clean; 3) the hotel provides daily refresh rather than the common every second or third day (or upon request); 4) the towels are large and soft; 5) the lobby and grounds are immaculate. In addition, the cost is competitive. I’m a Marriott rewards member. There’s a Marriott next door; however, I will always choose the Valley River Inn since their costs, quality of rooms, and staff are superior to the Marriott property.

Cons:

There’s absolutely nothing to complain about at the Valley River Inn.

Nice comfortable hotel on river.

Beautiful comfortable room with view of river. Bed super comfortable. Size of room great . Front desk staff very helpful and friendly. River walk right behind hotel with easy access.
