I have always been fascinated with Astoria since I was a child. My dad and I would always travel through town on our way to Seaside, OR for our camping trips. I loved the houses built up on the steep hillsides, the river with the huge ships and the neatest bridge I'd ever seen. Plus it was home to the Goonies...come on! :) haha Now that I am an adult, I find the town to be just as charming as ever. I was doing research online for a hotel on the coast and came across this one in Astoria. I fell in love with it just by the pictures. I have never actually stayed in Astoria so this was my chance. I checked in and the front desk was friendly and helpful. They asked me what floor I'd like to stay on so I chose the top floor. The minute I walked in the room it was warm and inviting. It had a huge bathroom by hotel standards with a fabulous claw foot tub! The king bed was very comfortable and the fireplace kept the room nice and cozy. There was a private blacony but I didn't get out on it much because it was chilly and rainy while I was there. That was okay though because the window seat was great to be able to sit on and look out at the river at the passing ships. I did have neighbors but I never heard them at all aside from the one time we were both out on our balconies taking in the beauty at the same time. I only stayed 1 night and I wish I could have stayed more. This place felt like home. I would move in here if I could! haha I did feel it was a bit pricey, but totally worth the splurge. I live in the midwest and come out to visit my family on the west coast yearly and I will definitely go back to the Cannery Pier Hotel!
