The last time we stayed in Winthrop, we stayed at Kamikaze Duck hotel (formerly Duck Brand) and had a terrible time. Ugh! This time we decided to splurge and stay at the Hotel Rio Vista across the street. What a wise decision! Lucinda McAllister, owner/manager/greeter/ nice person volunteered to show us the room BEFORE we had obligated to stay. I... More

This hotel is on the south end of town, walking distance to all local shops and restaurants. Room was clean and good sized. Staff was polite and helpful. Had a great view of the river right outside our private balcony. This is one of the few local hotels that allow a room to be booked just one night, on a... More

This place is great. Clean well maintained, perfect location. Right on main ave. close to all the shops and restaurants. I love that its right on the river. Make sure you make reservations cause its always full.

We just returned from a trip of the Cascade Loop...and a nice stay in Winthrop. We loved the fact that it was so handy, and walking distance to shops, restaurants, the new bridge, everything, really. We took several trips downtown, walked the bridge before we headed out the next morning, and really loved the soothing river sounds. The room was... More

The Hotel Rio Vista has a good location in the interesting town of Winthrop. Right at the end of Main St. with lots of shops and restaurants within a short two block walking distance. Our room was very clean - with the exception of an over-used shower curtain that needed washing or replacing. The bed was on the old side... More

Nice motel on the river. Conveniently located within walking distance to cute shops and resturants in Winthrop. Our room had a nice deck overlooking the river. The check in process was average. Overall, nice place!

The rooms were quite big and kept very clean. the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very close to many eating places and a small grocery shop. I... More

We have a beautiful view of the River and the Mountains from our room. It is hot today so the balcony is not much use but you can see the river from the couch, chairs and bed. There is a lot of tubing and rafting going on today. Winthrop is a great town to hang out in for a day.... More

If you ride a motorcycle (or drive a car and love wonderful scenery) in the Pacific North West you will be very familiar with Highway 20 near the Canadian border that passes through the North Cascade mountains. Only open in the summer the North Cascades run is amazing starting at Sedro Wolley and ending at Winthrop Washington. Winthrop is a... More
