We came to hike the Klickitat trail and stayed in a room on the front side of the building. The view from our window was a nice down-gorge view of the sunset. The weather was pleasant, but the room was stuffy unless the windows were open. The air conditioner was in the closet with a "broken" sign on it .... More

My partner and I have stayed there twice recently, once in October 2011 and in April 2012. This is a great place for people who like historic hotels and people who love the outdoors. The hotel is an old railroad hotel. It is not the Ritz Carlton. However, if you can tolerate sharing bathrooms and a little train noise, the... More

Great place, efficient-laid back service with fine food at very reasonable price. Staying here made a lovely change from nameless motels and pretentious B&Bs - well worth the effort to get here.

My husband and I, plus a friend spent a night at the Lyle Hotel in late Sept., 2011. We just loved the place! We were on motorcycles, having ridden over that day from the Walla Walla area. We pulled in on a Thursday evening. It took a few minutes for someone to respond to the bell at the front desk.... More

Dinner is served Thurs thru Sat and is excellent, as is the Sunday Brunch. The service is thoughtful and attentive. Their is a... More

This hotel is on the Washington side of the Columbia Gorge just past White Salmon. This is wine country, and if you drive out here to taste you should spend the night. The Lyle Hotel was built in 1905 as a boarding house. It has maintained its rustic ways with lots of bedrooms, but bathrooms down the hall. We stayed... More

This was our second stay at the Lyle, and we thoroughly enjoyed the relaxed, small-town atmosphere in this historic hotel. Tips: Make sure to stay on a night when the restaurant is open, ie Friday or Saturday.

My wife organized some kind of surprise b-day party that was hosted and and catered by the Lyle Hotel staff. It was awesome. Great service, great food, it was all good. The place was clean and they even let my wife keep her dog there! We stayed 3 nights and visited places around the Gorge. I would highly recommend the... More
