The view from this hotel is amazing and is worth being a little bit away from the center of town. It is very nice to sit out on the patio. Room was modern and comfortable. Hotel is extremely quite. Breakfast is great with hot and cold options and great view.

Liked the breakfast in the am, view was nice from lookout and lounge. Room was small and a little crowded for two people, and had a few bugs as well in room. Otherwise bed was comfortable and warm. Staff was very nice and fixed my hair dryer for me!

We always stay at the Celilo when we are in this area. You can depend on friendly staff and clean, comfortable rooms. They had live music outside the lobby the night we were there - a talented couple sang great songs from the 80s. It was great!! We highly recommend this place.

I was pleasantly surprised by this budget hotel. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The price was far less than other nearby hotels but we were only staying one night so didn’t need extra amenities. Breakfast was scaled down but good. I will definitely stay here again.

Hotel location is near the highway on a top of a hill overlooking the Columbia River and The Dalles dam and bridge. The view was lost on dirty windows or you have to look through a screen. The cleanliness of rooms, interactions with staff, and pricing are all fair for this older Motel. Would stay recommend for a short stay.
