Hotels in Reno
Reno is a family-friendly destination with a good mix of activities to enjoy outdoors courtesy of Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada Mountains. That being said, it will still remind you of Las Vegas with flashy casinos and nightclubs, as well as wedding chapels. If you’re staying with little ones, try the Grand Sierra Resort offering a wide array of child activities. Want to do something physical? Stay at Whitney Peak Hotel. Outside the hotel is the world’s tallest climbing wall as well as an indoor bouldering park.
Hotels in Bend
Those who want to get out of the casino-filled cities of Nevada and enjoy the outdoors and nature should visit Bend. This Oregon city is like an adventure playground and a cosmopolitan city all rolled into one. Hotels in Bend range from pocket-friendly to luxury resorts.
For budget hotels, try Holiday Motel, Rodeway Inn & Suites, and Dunes Motels, all of which are in close proximity to top attractions. The Oxford Hotel Bend is an elegant and stylish accommodation with a long list of facilities and definitely worth the price. If you wish to be close to hiking trails and other outdoor activities, stay at the Pine Ridge Inn.
Looking for the best stay in these cities won’t take much of your time as there are plenty of options that will suit your interests.
