Have stayed here a few times and rooms are older but clean and staff is very nice. Traveling on business and booked through Expedia. Restaurant and bar onsite with a great menu and also room service. If you are traveling easy access on and off I-5.

I stayed one night for a quick business trip. As I'm a red lion travel club member, I was given free bottled water & popcorn. The hotel as fairly quiet, staff was friendly. They do have a restaraunt on site, but I did not take advantage of it. Room was comfortable and clean. No complaints from me.

I got a good deal on priceline so I wasn't expecting much, but this was the highest rated hotel I could book in Salem. The room is fine for a single person staying one night, but think it would be tight for two people. Extremely outdated television and the picture quality is horrible. Wi-Fi signal is good. Heating/Air unit is... More

The Salem Red Lion is a comfortable and clean hotel with many nice amenities. I especially liked the fitness room and indoor pool--a plus on a cool Spring day. The rooms were a little cramped but the bed was very comfortable and the bathrooms are very nice indeed with the toilet separate from the sinks and tub. I worked several... More

My first impression was not good. I walked into my room and spotted the cheap curtain hanging on an ugly rod to cover the closet and it just kinda set the mood as cheesy.
