Thistledown on Oak

Loved it! We will be back!

I have been on a 50-state quest since I was a little girl, and my last state happened to be Oregon. I wanted to celebrate with a unique experience and stay in OR and Thistledown on Oak was the BEST choice- it did NOT disappoint. When we walked into the room, the beauty and details of the room were stunning, almost overwhelming. We stayed a week and saw something new in the room every day! Hood River has so much to offer for a week's stay, with gorge-ous drives from Mt. Hood to the Dalles, so many wineries and waterfalls. If you love art, antiques, beauty, and quality, this is the hotel for you! And- the staff and owners are amazing- great service!

Valentines tradition This place is absolutely amazing. We are going to make it a Valentine’s Day tradition that we come here every year. We are going to try a different room next time. We were in Griffin‘s loft this time.

My wife and I made a last minute journey to Hood River to celebrate a family birthday and not wanting to make a late night drive through the Gorge home, we decided to stay over for the evening. We were lucky to discover Thistledown on Oak Street, we were even luckier they had availability as this Boutique hotel is truly something special. Each room is unique and we were directed to Griffin’s Loft, One of the 3 rooms currently available in this one of a kind hotel. As we walked in we were amazed by its unique blend of beautiful antiques, bold colors and warm homie feel. But cleverly integrated are all the modern touches you expect with at a high end luxury hotel. Like wifi, fridge, coffee maker, wine glasses and treats, but when you ad in the picture frame big screen televisions that are seamlessly integrated into the decor, or the fireplace with leather sofa with blankets and power curtains?? This place is special. And the bed…. Adjustable comfort you just don’t find in any hotels, one of the most comfortable I have experienced. Though the building is built is 100 plus years old, Thistledown on oak is relatively new we were told that the current 3 rooms will be expanded in the near future and we can’t wait to see what those look like, and once this place is discovered they will need the extra availability. I can imagine seeing this place on the Conde’ Nast’s lists of must-visit hotels soon, As this place is over the top magnificent! And the bonus is its just minutes off I-84 in the heart of downtown Hood River. Check it out!!

We were lucky to discover *Thistledown on Oak Street* in Hood River for a last-minute stay while celebrating a family birthday. This boutique hotel is truly something special—you don’t just stay here, you explore your room! We stayed in Griffin’s Loft, and from the moment we walked in, we were enchanted by the unique blend of beautiful antiques and modern touches. The building’s rich history adds to its charm, making it feel like you’re stepping into another time, but with all the modern comforts you could want. A few highlights: the whisper-quiet rooms ensure total relaxation—you don’t hear doors slamming or guests running around. The furnishings are solid, timeless, and gorgeous, yet the contemporary details, like the picture-frame TV, add a cool modern vibe. And the bed—easily one of the most comfortable we’ve slept in. This place feels like it belongs on Condé Nast’s list of must-visit hotels. We’re already planning to return to explore one of the other unique rooms. Thistledown is a hidden gem that truly makes Hood River unforgettable.
