Soul | Community | Planet
Hello Bend! The SCP Hotel in Redmond is Central Oregon’s new, modern, thoughtfully-designed, environmentally-friendly hang out spot to stay, eat, relax, meet, have fun, work, and self-improve. The venue’s goal is to give back to the community through their culture of kindness and by actively supporting surrounding businesses, schools, and cultures. Sound impressive? It’s because it is! Not only do they set the bar high, but they practice what they preach and make sure their efforts are aligned with each of the three words in their name: soul, community, planet.
“We succeed by giving back” – SCP Team
Every time someone books a visit at an SCP hotel (also located in Depoe Bay and Colorado Springs), they are joining a community that is driving positive change all around the world. Take a look at some of their contributions per visit:
Every visit booked enables SCP to give back in the following ways:
SOUL
Provide one adolescent with well-being tools and resources to build life-long mental health skills through WE Well-being. As of March 31, 2021 over 17,000 adolescents have been supported through this program.
COMMUNITY
Light the home of one family caring for a critically ill child for 24-hours through Miracles for Kids. As of last month, 20.3 THOUSAND hours of light has been provided to the Miracles for Kids program!
PLANET
Plant one tree in an unnaturally deforested area through One Tree Planted. As of the end of March, 26,100 trees have been planted!
More sustainability data shows that the impact of lowering use of single-use shower amenities, reducing CO2 emissions, eliminating thousands of pounds of food waste and plastic waste, and producing clear solar energy impacts not only the immediate community of Redmond, but the world and environment as a whole.
Our Experience
So this unique model is all well and grand, but what does the experience look like for someone planning a visit? Jeff and I had the pleasure of experiencing a weekend getaway at the SCP and it was MAGICAL! We went in with high expectations and were still blown away by the incredible hospitality and experience.

The Hotel:
The revival of The New Hotel Redmond by SCP included transforming an historic gem into a stylish, modern vision of the Central Oregon aesthetic and lifestyle. Its four stories, topped by The Rooftop, includes 49 rooms with SCP’s trademark mindful, minimalist style, including the use of sustainable and regionally-sourced materials. Warm wood, crisp warm whites, and earth tones bring the natural beauty of Oregon inside. SCP also works to ensure each stay is good for the planet by eliminating single use plastic bottles and plastic shower amenities, using eco-friendly materials in our renovations, and incorporating new energy-efficient systems and solar power.
Located off the main drag of historic Redmond, the hotel is easily accessible, and walkable to most of Redmond’s acclaimed restaurants and amenities. Highway 97 is close by, and all of Central Oregon’s beauty is right at your fingertips! Smith Rock is much more accessible from Redmond, and we were able to take time to explore areas that weren’t otherwise on our list.
The Rooms:
Suites:
Perfect for a longer stay, or a bigger group–our suite thoughtfully was connected to a room with bunkbeds for the kids!
Standard Rooms:
Thoughtfully detailed rooms whether you’re seeking adventure or a restful retreat. Best for singles, couples, or short stays!
Peaceful Rooms:
A unique twist on lodging as these rooms provide amenities for peace and clairity, free of the usual distractions.
The Rooftop Bar:
With an ideal Central Oregon location in downtown Redmond, SCP is near Smith Rock State Park and Bend, Oregon. Guests can see for miles on The Rooftop with panoramic views of the Cascade Range, including Three Sisters volcanic peaks (known as Faith, Hope and Charity), Mount Bachelor, Black Butte. Take a look at these incredible views! Enjoy delicious, health-forward eats, hand crafted cocktails, Wednesday-Saturday from 3:00-9:00pm!
The Food:
Serving up a “vegan-forward” gourmet menu, the SCP rooftop bar and provisions cafe commits to sustainability, health, and nourishment while not compromising the quality of taste and ingredients!

The Co-working Space:
The creative coworking space they have founded in the main hotel space aligns perfectly with their core Holistic Hospitality values. Light, airy, refreshing, the quiet work space provides all the necessary amenities that one would need for a productive day at the “office”–bonus, there’s coffee!
The Fitness Facilities:
SCP Fit’s purposeful design is built on our core values of Soul, Community and Planet. Features include state-of-the-art equipment, dedicated yoga and meditation rooms, and scheduled fitness classes and personal training opportunities. From the yoga lounge to pelotons, this is truly a fitness facility unlike any other hotel.
Overall, we had a wonderful “staycation” at the SCP and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From the incredible artwork, the panoramic rooftop bar, to the homy rooms, this place takes the cake for a fun, exceptional stay. Major bonus points for their community connections and benevolent work!
For guests who believe in the power of healthy living, kindness toward others, and compassion for the planet, visit one of the SCP hotels!
