Pacific Coast Highway Travel reviews five Astoria hotels in the budget, moderate and expensive categories and all taken from our guide to PCH accommodation.
Price Ranges
These Astoria hotels are listed under three simple headings – Budget, Moderate, and Expensive. We haven’t given specific prices, as these can change enormously from season to season. Also, if you visit a hotel website or check on websites like TripAdvisor or Expedia, you might get special deals which turn an Expensive hotel into a Moderate one or a Moderate into a Budget. In addition, some places have a range of rooms and prices that can vary widely. By and large, though, we're reckoning under $100 per room per night is Budget, $100-200 is Moderate, and over $200 is Expensive.
