Awesome place for a beach weekend. Nice rooms, great view, beach is close and Mo's restaurant across the street.
Have stayed in several of rooms here. Always clean and staff is super friendly and helpful. This is our dogs favorite hotel! And we recently stayed in the big 2 bedroom . So roomy and nice for our group of 4 with pet
Rooms were comfortable with fireplace and ocean view. Continental breakfast was great. Only observation was the flooring was not level throughout. This did not bother us. We will be returning!
Our first visit to this charming inn and we can’t wait to come back next year. Service was so hospitable! Scott was so delightful at check in and so patient with my very excited 6 year old who had soooo many questions about the beach. Rooms were cozy and we greatly appreciated the fire places, large fridges, and wonderful view of the beach! Bonus: they have beach toys, chairs, and wagons you can borrow if you forgot anything! Breakfast was far above the normal continental you would find and they do complimentary cookies in the evening! Yum! As we were getting ready to leave our car battery died and guess what they had a jumper box! Impressed! 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for a quaint stay on the beach. Thank you!
Looking Glass Inn is our go to place when we visit the Lincoln City. We find the location to be absolutely fantastic. Additionally, the pricing is quite reasonable. It truly offers a wonderful experience for us. We highly recommend it.
Quiet, relaxing experience. A cozy Inn with nice ambience and view. Great for those with dogs. Not so much with little kids unless you wanna stand out lol! Great experience otherwise. The stairs are a bit daunting to the upper level
I booked a room for my mom and her friend here and asked for an Ocean View not realizing that the hotel over looks the bay and not the ocean. Unfortunately the gentleman I spoke to miss spoke and confirmed it had an ocean view. When we got there to check in we learned that the views were over the bay and not the ocean. Lisa and Scott were the staff working and they went over and beyond to ensure my mom and her friend had the view they wanted. Lisa reached out to a sister hotel and managed to get the reservation changed to another location for the same price. The customer service was amazing and we were still offered warm cookies even though they weren’t going to be staying there. I never saw the room but I’m giving them 5 stars anyways.
Our favorite place to stay on the coast! Located right on Taft Bay, this hotel offers easy beach access and great views. The staff is so friendly and helpful, and always willing to check for upgrades or room switches if available. Close to a food cart pod, beer hall and various local restaurants / shopping.
