GuestHouse Kelso Longview, Washington – Image Credit Crystal Investment Property
Crystal Investment Property is pleased to present the exclusive listing for sale of GuestHouse Kelso Longview, a 60-key, interior-corridor hotel in Kelso, Washington, offering a 2025 renovation, cash-flow-focused opportunity on the Interstate 5 corridor.
Stabilized I-5 Corridor Opportunity Zone Asset
Built in 1999 and renovated in 2025 under a completed Property Improvement Plan (PIP), GuestHouse Kelso Longview is a three-story, interior-corridor hotel totaling 34,193 square feet. The 1.49-acre site is held under a long-term ground lease and is configured for efficient operations, with interior corridors, elevator access, and a central lobby.
Property Location and Access
The property is located within the Interstate 5 transportation corridor. It sits less than 0.6 miles from the Kelso Longview Amtrak Station and Multimodal Transportation Center, which connects the market to Amtrak service, intercity buses, and regional transit. This combination of interstate and rail access supports a diversified base of commercial, transportation, and regional travelers.
GuestHouse Kelso Longview Demand Drivers and Surrounding Uses
Industrial and institutional employers, including the Port of Longview, area manufacturing, healthcare, and education, support lodging demand. Regional recreation on the Columbia and Cowlitz Rivers, along with access to Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, contributes to year-round visitation. Nearby commercial and mixed-use development, including the adjacent Three Rivers Crossing project, is expected to add dining, entertainment, and retail activity within walking distance of the hotel.
Property Improvements and Operations
The recent renovation (2025) refreshed guestrooms, corridors, lobby, and updated the hotel to meet current brand standards. On-site guest amenities include an indoor pool and hot tub, fitness room, business center, guest laundry, and parking for standard and oversized vehicles. The hotel offers standard rooms, suites, and accessible room options that work well for business travelers and transportation-related guests.
Investment and Tax Incentive Position
GuestHouse Kelso Longview is a stabilized, turnkey hotel with in-place management and operating performance that supports attractive returns at current pricing and cap rate guidance. The 60-year ground lease structure preserves buyer equity for other acquisitions and provides predictable land costs.
The hotel’s location within a federally designated Qualified Opportunity Zone may offer additional tax benefits, subject to buyer due diligence and advisor review. The asset is well-suited to individual investors, regional operators, and portfolio buyers.
