Hotel Reviews 4.13.2014

NOTE: These were hotels we researched as a possibility of Mt St Helens being our mountain choice.  We will save these for future use as needed.  We have selected Mt Hood as the base camp for 2015's Hot Lave Event.

Red Lion Hotel

Kelso, WA

• Banquet room options with catering
• Lots of rooms available [156]
• They will give us a dedicated area of the parking lot with enough room for all cars
• They will provide hose/bucket for washing as needed
• Breakfast buffet, the size of a full size restaurant, enough seating for over 70 people
• Coffee bar
• May be able to use the breakfast room for registration, or a smaller banquet room.  Banquet/group person was not there when we stopped in.
• Waiting for group pricing info.

Comfort Inn

Kelso, WA

• Smaller hotel
• Rooms are fine, 57 rooms, they will reserve a block of 30 for us, might have to use both hotels
• Breakfast buffet, breakfast room is part of the lobby and holds 20 people 
• Enough parking for approx 55 cars total, will not be dedicated
• Half a mile from Red Lion Hotel if we use that for the banquet
• Do not have a meeting room so we would have to use their breakfast lobby area for registration
• Have group pricing info, will post it here shortly

Lewis River Inn   http://lewisriverinn.com/

Woodland, WA

• Have not looked at it
• May have better access to Mt St Helens
• May be a lower cost
• Some recently remodeled rooms

All three have microwave and small fridges in most rooms.
