Nice hotel in Eugene?

Question

Looks like most stay at the Hilton or Valley River Inn. But tripadvisor reviews for the Hilton say to stay at Valley River....and vice versa! What's a nice place to sack out for a couple of nights?

Answer 1

There are several motels, some of them nice, on Gateway Street in Springfield. This is right off the I-5 freeway, which separates Eugene and Springfield. There are also a good selection of restaurants there, and the Gateway Mall is a short (4 block?) walk away as well.

Here are the names of some of the hotels there:
Shilo Inn 541-747-0332

Quality Inn 541-726-1212

You might also consider this one:

Or this one:

This ought to at least give you a few other choices to look at.
Personally, between the Hilton and Valley River Inn, I like the latter ... but there ARE other fish in the pond, lol.

Answer 2

If you stay at the Hilton you are right in downtown - near bars/restaurants - Valley River is across the river from downtown - so not sure if its a walkable distance.

I stayed at the Hilton - and its typical - nothing fancy - they have a restaurant and small bar - but you literally walk out of the hotel and there are a bunch of different places to eat drink - I think the Valley River is more secluded
