A Classic Hotel

My husband and I had driven by the Winnedumah on our way to Tahoe. We finally had the opportunity to stay here. We really enjoy older hotels and Bed and Breakfasts so this is right up our alley. We loved lounging in the lobby and talking with Robert, Cindy and Derrick. We look forward to the “Reincarnation “ of the Winnedumah!

A Grand Old Lady

This hotel per the sign outside was established in 1927. Since I am a historian I appreciate a piece of history. It was interesting to stay in a hotel built so long ago. The Innkeeper in the morning was a lovely lady, and mentioned the hotel is in the process of being restored. It was nice to have a real fire place with a fire lit in the evening. The bed was comfortable with soft sheets and blankets. In the morning, the breakfast was brown bag due to Covid, but generous with breakfast for two and I had snacks for the rest of the day. If you love old things and appreciate history, this is a place to check out. The hotel as the Innkeeper said, is a Grand Old Lady, and I would be interested to see her restored to her former glory.

This was such a unique stay! Loved the lobby and how they kept the historic quality to the entire location. As an interior designer I loved walking throughout the space and admiring the architecture of the location. The staff was wonderful and helpful. Great amenities in the room. My only issue to the location was our bed. The bed had a vintage squeak to it but on the one side it was horribly squeaky. Getting in and out we were worried we were going to wake the whole hotel. Great pillows and blankets but not the best sleep for us.

Antique Hotel

Interesting antique room. No blow dryers or ironing board/iron because it stress the older electrical wiring, I was told. Plenty of hot water, tough to get upstairs if you have luggage due to no elevator. Breakfast was cold served in a sack, so not a true bed and breakfast. Interesting history.

This historical hotel was clean and quiet and had a certain charm. The rooms are on the small side, as rooms of that era are, but it had enough room and the bathroom is also big enough. The beds and linens are high quality. Best of all the staff was extremely helpful.

It was refreshing to stay in a 100 year old property instead of a cookie-cutter hotel room. The staff were upfront about the condition of the property - leaky faucets, no TV, etc., so we knew exactly what to expect.

Historically Charming

We arrived very late. The instructions we’re clear about how to obtain our key. Everything felt safe and secure .The hotel is historic and reflects yes. The property owners are very nice and welcoming people. We would definitely stay here again. Can’t wait to see the rehab to this historic building!

Love to visit agian

Would stay again any time - a friendly welcome, a big soft bed, a surprising ambience that celebrated the earlier times of the Owen's Valley. Don't visit if you expect a generic modern motel/hotel, but do go if you appreciate a more historic & quirky location.

This is an historic property, some gorgeous wood work from past masters. But its a no frills, bare bones stay. The ceiling fan was a bare bulb hanging, the sink and tub are old, the room had minimal ammenities, but i was grateful for free bottled water. The linen was excellent, the sheets and towels very nice. Its an old place, which has very little upgrades done. It was a good spot to stop, though, and the rest was needed.

So the hotel was cute and historic and had some fun ambiance. But it had two fatal flaws. 1st fatal flaw, no AC in our room on the first floor. There was a fan plugged in and running in our room. 2nd fatal flaw, there was only 1 plug in in the entire room. Half of that plug in was used for the fan. But it was cool and there is film history there, but for a stay? It was a struggle.
