Beautiful building, wonderfully maintained. Everything about the place is this charm. Wonderful staff. In the off-season a simple but delicious breakfast. Nice place to hang out and to socialize with interesting guests.

This was our tenth or twelfth stay at the Balch. That means we like it a lot. Wonderful ambience of a classic western hotel, great staff; always helpful, courteous and eager to help. Beautiful grounds, patio and large lawn. Sweet breakfast. The dinners (optional) are superb, Saturday outside entertainment first class.

Old historical hotel off beaten path. I’ve never explored this part of Oregon and it was worth seeing

We enjoyed the beautiful old building in the quiet town of Dufur a lot. Very well maintained with pretty details. Our room was comfy and it had all we needed. Breakfast was good too. Easy access to The Dalles but also Dufur itself has a lot to offer for anyone seeking peace and nature.

We needed a place to stay last minute after a camping trip went badly. We weren't sure about booking this place, but Balch Hotel far exceeded our expectations! It is a lovely old building with so much character. The only thing I would give 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is an old building with loud doors and creaky furniture. But that is also what adds to the charm and we were never disturbed by the sounds of other guests. The breakfast was great and I loved how they didn't use single-use plastic. I also really appreciated the gay pride flag and black lives matter sign at the entryway.

A little off the main routes which was perfect. Very quiet, exceptionally clean, beautiful restoration of a 1907 hotel. Food was excellent and the staff was nothing short of awesome - best I’ve experienced in a very long time.

Super friendly staff. Really clean and decorated right. Unique experience. In spite of it being older and preserved it was warm and welcoming. Cool little Bistro. Great garden/patio. The staff even offered to turn the fire pits on for us. Great experience all the way around.

The people who work at the Balch Hotel are the kindest and most helpful humans one could ever experience. I was a solo traveler but never felt alone. I cannot say enough about the wonderful people who make this place a magical destination.

Very friendly and helpful owners and staff - nothing was too much trouble. Large comfortable rooms, well stocked library, gardens in which to sit and enjoy. Location in lovely historic town of Dufur with easy access to The Dalles and Columbia River.

The staff realized that I had severely sprained my ankle while riding my motorcycle and without saying anything to them they brought to my room a large plastic bag with ice the help heal my ankle.
