Where to Stay in Bend, Oregon

Before you can book your next vacation, you need to decide where you want to stay when you are in Bend.

Downtown Bend is great for those who are looking to experience the culture of Bend, with spas, homegrown eats, fresh coffee, local brews, and historical buildings.

The Old Mill District is similar to downtown, with some great places to eat and grab a coffee. One of the most popular Old Mill attractions is the Les Schwab Amphitheater. Here you can hear local music for free on Sundays in the summer as well as catch an event or concert with a big-name artist.

Downtown Bend Hotels

Downtown Bend is known for its historic buildings and old-world charm. There are plenty of shops, spas, and coffee shops to enjoy along the way. But the best part about downtown is the food and beer. Bend has so many great local brews and restaurants, it’s hard to visit them all in one visit.

Wall Street Suites

Located only 2 blocks from the heart of downtown, Wall Street Suites boasts an old hotel motif on the outside and modern, spacious rooms on the inside.

There are five suite types to choose from, each named for a famous Bend landmark. The Mt. Bachelor Suite is the largest, able to sleep up to four people with a king bed and queen sleeper sofa. Enjoy getting ready in the custom tiled bathroom with walk-in shower and skylight to bring the sunshine in. You also have a spacious living area and full kitchen.

The Mirror Pond and Deschutes River Suites have a similar setup to the Mt. Bachelor Suite, just a bit smaller, and the Smith Rock Suite is a bit smaller than these. The Deluxe Kind Suite is the smallest of all the suites. There is room for two with a comfortable king bed. The bathroom has the same setup, but you only have a mini fridge rather than full kitchen.

You are sure to find some R&R here with the amenities they offer. Grab a seat outside by the fire in the evening. Take one of the complimentary bike rentals into town for a bite to eat. You can even bring your pooch and let them run around in the on-site dog park.

DoubleTree by Hilton Bend

Hilton is known for their luxurious accommodations and friendly welcoming party upon arrival, so we had to include the DoubleTree in Bend on our list. Located in the heart of historic downtown, you are merely steps away from all that the area has to offer.

There are three main room types: regular guest rooms, suites, and accessible. The suites are so luxurious, with king beds, spacious living areas, in-room fireplace, whirlpool tub, plush robes, and a mountain view from the balcony.

The accessible rooms are spacious, with 40 inches of clearances in all doorways and between furniture. Some rooms even have bathrooms with a roll-in shower.

The Old Mill

The Old Mill District is another great area that is comparable to downtown.

Budget Hotels

When you travel to a place that has many attractions and activities you want to take part in, it is highly unlikely you will be spending much time at your hotel.

Getting to Bend

Coming from somewhere nearby in the Pacific Northwest, it is easy to get to Bend by car. The closest cities are Sisters (22 miles), Tumalo (7.8 miles), and Sunriver (16.5 miles). However, Portland is only a 3-hour drive away and Prineville is less than an hour.

From here, you will either need a rental car, taxi, or Uber to take you to Bend. There is an Amtrak available as well, but it is probably just easier to take the 23-minute by car.

Getting Around Bend

If you are flying into Bend, you may want to consider getting a rental car depending on where you are staying. Most activities require a short drive to get to, including getting to Mt. Bachelor from the various resorts nearby.

Staying downtown in one of the best Bend hotels or downtown Airbnb’s is a bit easier. You can easily walk or bike everywhere without really needing a car. There is some public transportation available, but it’s not something you want to solely rely on unless it’s a shuttle from your hotel or resort.
