Balch Hotel

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
