Super excited to be making it back to Bend for their excellent brewfest. (I missed last year). Does anyone know of a good place to stay that relatively close to the amphitheater? Anyone else going? Cheers!
I don't know where the venue is but, the strip of motels just East of 97 (I don't recall the street name, but it paralells 97. Maybe the locals call it Old 97? I seem to remember that) is is within walking distance of dowtown, so can't be all that much further away from wherever the venue is. Enjoy! Wait!?! A brewfest in Bend!?! Like I need more encouragement to visit again.
Your best bet if not already booked is the new Hilton Garden Inn @ the Old Mill. Just changed to a Hilton brand from an Ameri Tel Inn. You cannot go wrong with this location! Have fun and I wish I was attending! If booked I would try St. Francis School. It is a McMennimins property and they are always fun to stay at. Although, not an easy walk from the Ampitheater you are an easy walk from Deschutes and Bend Brewery!
I've stayed at this place numerous times, incl. a visit to the Bend Brewfest last year - highly recommended. http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/rdmts-towneplace-suites-bend/
Thanks for the tips everyone. The Hilton Garden Inn was booked, as was the St. Francis. We got something on 97 that is less than a mile from the fest. Cheers!
