We go to Astoria a couple of times a year, and we strayed from the Crest for awhile due to a (one-time) experience with a cranky guy manning the desk. We decided to give the Crest another chance this past weekend, and we're glad we did; the crabby-pants fellow appeared to not be working there anymore, the view is still... More

We stay here evey year and are never disappointed. The rooms are large, clean, quiet and well maintained. They are dated in decore, but the beds are comfortable. The view is spectacular, no other hotel in Astoria offers such a view. The desk and cleaning staff are pleasant and friendly. The contenental breakfast is limited to pastries and coffee, but... More

This is an old fasioned motel with a view to die for. It is quiet, out of the way, a few minutes only to wonderful downtown Astoria and all it has to offer. The rooms are vintage, comfortable but not a lot of bells and whistles. It's that view and the romance that we love so much. The price, considering... More

I spent 2 days here and was more than happy with what it provided for the cost. Yes, it needs some updating. Yes, it's "tired" overall. And no, it's not the most luxurious place. But it is clean, the rooms are very large with many amenities (fridge, microwave, ample furniture) and I don't think there's a better view of the... More

The Crest has unquestionably the best view in Astoria. Each room faces down the Columbia River toward the Megler-Astoria Bridge and the blue Pacific beyond which can provide for some fantastic sunsets- or not. Heavy fog is always a possibiity as well so be prepared even in the summer- but this is Astoria! We stayed at the Crest for three... More

This is not the fanciest of places, but I'd never pass up the chance to stay here!!!!!!! It is typically very clean, the front desk folks are so helpful and kind. We always get an upper story room which faces the river -- great view!

We stopped here at the Crest motel when visiting Astoria the other day. We were looking for a pet friendly hotel that didn't break the bank. Crest was under 75$, the rooms were clean and bright, the check in clerk was friendly and helpful, and there was even a hot tub for us to soak after our long drive. The... More

We stayed here for one night in the beginning of August.The room was pretty clean although it didn't look like it had renovations in a while. The view was amazing! The deck is in need of some repairs though, also only seperated by chain link between balconies. The continental breakfast is very basic but it did fill us up, had... More

This is a wonderful alternative to the cookie cutter chain motel. Not only is it a charming motel, but it is on a historically significant site. First - our room was spacious, with all the amenities - fridge, microwave, table and chairs and desk space. The bathroom is large with a roomy vanity. The entire suite is clean and freshly... More
