I stayed at this hotel last week due to beach proximity and low price. I was debating with another nearby hotel but chose this one based on cost. I was pleasantly surprised how much my family enjoyed our stay!
I checked in with Angie and another lady (didn't see name tag) and they were both so friendly and accommodating. We were able to check-in 30 minutes early. They informed us of places to go and hotel amenities. I didn't realize we could use the beach towels and carts near the parking area. It was very convenient to pack up all the beach toys and kids in the cart.

On March 18th I made reservations for the May 15th weekend. I requested a 2nd floor 2 bedroom suite. I've stayed at this hotel many times. In the 2 bedroom suites there is a fireplace and the living room is on the ocean side.
On April 25th (5 weeks later) I received an e-mail telling me I couldnt have the second floor and they were sticking us on the 1st floor. I checked other hotels for openings, but there were none.
They obviously waited over a month to do this because they knew we'd be stuck with a first floor "suite" or have to cancel the vacation.

We spent our fourth of July in Lake Oswego at the Lakeshore Inn in Lake Oswego social distancing and looking at the water with the sunset. I looked at their materials in the room and they own several other little inns around Oregon. This is one of those.
We decided to try again on our anniversary as we had booked some time in Lincoln City and then it was under a mandatory evacuation order. Fast forward to late September we thought we could look at the beach and remain socially distant. We were successful.
This is a charming little place that has most all the conveniences you need within the room

Ocean views are at a distance. Not so bad. However, don't expect your room to be cleaned. They really don't care to do that, even with a multi day stay. Unfortunately, they blame the lack of service on COVID, which is not the same in other establishments. Perhaps a discount for the lack of towels and toilet paper is in order, although I doubt ethics to be of consideration. Anything to make a buck these days.

We have been coming to this hotel for years! It always a great place to stay. We love that it is dog friendly, it is just outside of town so quiet yet right across the street from the ocean.
We have stayed here when we got engaged and then later when we got married at Cannon Beach my adults kids and my granddaughter stayed here. It's part of the family!

I love this hotel! Switching from the expensive, but equally great, Tolovana Inn it's easy to say the two are some very good hotels. This hotel is slightly updated and entering the room you are not greeted with the unwanted smell of the previous guest. They provide you with free movies and a list to choose from at the front office. Not only that, but they also have a shed in the parking lot filled with beach chairs, towels, and toys to borrow and use! The pool is heated as well so that is always a plus. Overall, this hotel is very nice.

We found this Hotel by chance just driving by after having a bad experience at another Hotel.
The location is great it's right across from the beach it has a market next door and a seafood restaurant across the street and a coffee shop not to far from the hotel.
The rooms are big and clean and has a refrigerator and microwave. The staff is great and accommodating Andy was so nice and helpful at check in wish was appreciated after the experience at the other hotel.
The first night we stayed in a king bed with a fireplace which a highly recommend. I would stay here again!

A mile or two south of the busy part (so to speak) of Cannon Beach, this is also a block away from the beach. As a result, it's quite a bit cheaper than the places directly on the beach.
Very friendly staff, who were very accommodating to our two small dogs. The room was clean and comfortable and quiet and it was a nice place to stay for the night.
Disclaimer: Our stay was on Christmas Eve, so a stay during the busy season could be substantially different.

We love The Wayside Inn! We found a room last year for New Years. We took both our dogs and stayed in standard two queen room on the top floor. It was super clean, staff was attentive, and the room had the cutest welcome package for our dogs. We stayed there again this summer in a queen studio with kitchen and loved it even more. Kitchen was fully equipped and bedroom had a door so we could keep our pups in the living room. It has become our go-to place!

My best friend/roommate, our dog and I just spent the most wonderful weekend in Cannon Beach. We stayed in a one bedroom two queen suite at The Wayside Inn, and I can't recommend this place enough. First, everything was spotlessly clean. The bed and bedding were soooo comfy. There were so many special touches to make the stay comfortable: the mini kitchen equipped with everything you could need. (Dishes, glassware, cookware/utensils, flatware, coffee mugs.) The suite has two full bathrooms with tub/shower, and no tiny little bath toiletries here - each tub has a shampoo/conditioner/shower

We absolutely love this place and return every time we go back to cannon beach. We've tried various other hotels in the area but this Inn is our favorite. The level of service here is incredible! They do everything to anticipate their guests needs and meeting those needs before their guests even realize it. The manager Eirin is the truly genuine and caring, every staff member is accommodating and professional. We highly recommend this place to everyone.

This hotel is reasonably priced. That's the good.
The bad:
1. It is old and in dire need of renovation. The letherette couch is badly tattered, the bathrooms are extremely small, and the bed is so lumpy, that I just couldn't sleep. What's the point of staying on the coast, if you're too tired from sleepless nights to enjoy it?
2. There is WiFi, that's free. Except you get exactly what you pay for, which is connection so slow that even the internet speed test "couldn't reach the server."
That's about it. The two stars for price. Enjoy or not

Cute little hotel to stay at when you're spending time at Cannon Beach!
I found the hotel on Expedia, and ended up getting one of the suites for $140. A suite includes a mini kitchen, small dining table, living room with television and fireplace, bedroom with a television and fan, and bathroom.
Our room also had a nice patio with two chairs looking out towards the beach.
P.S. The sunsets from the rooms are AMAZING! We were lucky enough to be able to watch one from our room.
Check-in was easy and when we arrive 2.5 hours early, they had a room ready for us. The office has small snacks

A friend mentioned this place last summer so we put it on our list of places to stay if we came to Cannon Beach.
Unfortunately, the weather hasn't cooperated but that's why the indoor (saltwater!) pool is a big plus. Had the weather cooperated, it's close to the beach, and has a great little deck that faces the water. I also see that they have wagons and beach toys for guests to use.
The room was super clean and perfect for what we needed. We enjoyed the fireplace. Plenty of towels (softest hotel towels I think I've ever had) and the in-shower shampoo, conditioner and body

The staff and the owners were a great help, pleasant and accommodating. This place is dog friendly. The hotel is actually not right on the beach it is located between the highway and a small road. There is a parking lot before the hotel and then you get to the ocean.
The room was clean with a full kitchen.

This hotel totally deserves five stars.
Location: the hotel is located in a quiet area across the street from the beach and a couple of miles south of "downtown." There is a restaurant across the street and a pub next door. Haystack Rock is about a five minute walk up the beach.
Room: I think there are only 24 rooms in the hotel and it appears they all have a small deck with a view of the ocean. The room was clean, modern and quiet. It included a gas fireplace, small dining table, microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, cable TV and DVD player (they have DVDs available for borrowing

Late Review: 2 years ago we stayed here.
This is right off the ocean with great views and balconies for the sea air.
The hotel price was amazing and the staff was fabulous.
They are dog friendly so I brought 2 dogs (maltese and boxer).
The staff had prepaired a dog basket and had water dishes.
The rooms are very nice and very clean.
We enjoyed our stay immensely.
Great location to many shops and resteraunts - but not so close you have traffic issues. 5 min drive.

5 stars because it was incredibly clean and the staff was amazing. For the price we paid we expected much worse accommodations. Pet friendly. The pool and hot tub were nice. I am pretty sure all the rooms have an ocean view with a balcony or a patio that opens to the sea. We are literally right across the street from one of the most amazing Oregon beaches I have ever been to. Miles of clean soft sand and plenty of space to enjoy any activity. Everything in the room was modern and incredibly clean. Our room was small (we were told it was the smallest room onsite) but it had a kitchen and it was
