Built in 1907, the historic character of Balch Hotel shapes a stay that feels warm, grounded, and unhurried. From the moment you arrive, warm, fresh-baked cookies offer a sweet welcome and mark the beginning of a gentler pace. Quiet mornings ease into relaxed afternoons perfect for conversation or a good book, and evenings settle into a calm that makes it easy to fully unplug.

Always magical, never mundane.

Vintage-inspired furnishings, plush beds, and magnificent views set the tone, while the absence of phones, alarm clocks, and televisions creates an atmosphere of true unplugging. Each guestroom offers a simple, thoughtful layout, some with private bathrooms and others with shared facilities just in the hall beyond your door. As a preserved landmark, Balch Hotel has no elevator, and all spaces are accessed by stairs, a small step back in time that adds to its authentic character and old-world charm.

Start your day with a complimentary breakfast included with your stay, featuring fresh, homemade morning fare that feels both simple and satisfying. As the day unfolds, Bistro 1907 offers casually elegant, seasonal dining rooted in Pacific Northwest flavors, complemented by thoughtful beverage pairings and relaxed service. Whether you're lingering over morning coffee or gathering for an evening meal with views of the gardens and mountains, the food here feels personal and grounded in place.
