The Columbia River Gorge is breathtaking, and there’s never a bad time to visit. That being said, this might be a particularly good time to go. The Society Hotel recently opened a beautiful location in Bingen, and it’s magnificent. And if you’re still not ready to be around others, you can just book one of their secluded, spacious cabins.
The Society Hotel originally opened in Portland, but added a Bingen location in 2019. However, the property goes back much farther.
management / TripAdvisor This was once the Bingen Schoolhouse, which opened 80 years ago. The team lovingly restored it and turned it into the modern structure it is today.
The hotel includes hostel-style bunk rooms and private rooms for the budget-conscious traveler, but they also offer modern cabins for families or those who simply prefer social distancing.
management / TripAdvisor The cabins have multiple rooms, kitchenettes, private seatings areas, hammocks, and picnic tables.
But no matter what kind of lodging you choose, you can count on one thing: comfort.
management / TripAdvisor The team at The Society Hotel takes great pride in their hospitality.
The outdoor space includes all kinds of community amenities, like the fire pits and outdoor hot tub.
management / TripAdvisor Cabin guests also have full access to the Spa & Bathhouse, which has a saltwater soaking pool, sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge.
You’d never guess that this was once a schoolhouse if the team hadn’t left some of the original details.
management / TripAdvisor For example, the original gymnasium has been converted into a meeting space and a small concert venue.
The Sanctuary is a unique subterranean building you’ll find tucked in the corner of the property.
management / TripAdvisor It’s used for yoga classes, team-building activities, and private retreats.
If you stay, don’t forget to check out the library, otherwise known as the Cafe and Lounge.
management / TripAdvisor It’s open daily, and you’re welcome to order some food or cocktails to be left in your room.
The Society Hotel is a must-see for those craving a unique experience.
