Wine Tasting in the Gorge

The Columbia Gorge Viticulture Area stretches east from Hood River to the Dalles and the Best Western Hood River Inn’s location is the perfect home base for exploring these offerings.

Situated in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge, our restaurant Riverside is honored to be ambassadors of the food and wine that bring this incredible region to life. Riverside’s own wine list showcases wines grown and produced in the Columbia Gorge and supports wines grown with a strong commitment to sustainability and connection to place.

After a day of tasting take a walk on our shoreline path to the marina or relax in our hot tub, pool, or sauna.
