Enjoyed our brief visit to Shaniko.
It was quite warm while we visited Shaniko. Took a peak into a few buildings that were closed. We were able to walk into the beautiful hotel. The original Marshal office if still open to look into. I could not believe how small the stagecoach office was. We were able to sit and enjoy an ice cream cone in the shade. Great little town to just walk through and look atound.

Grand hotel in a ghost town - what a privilege
Beautiful relic of the past, so grateful to have been given the opportunity to stay here. I came through Shaniko as a kid, over 40 years ago, and again about 20 years ago. I had never had the time to stay here, nor the ability to stay in the great old hotel. Scott is very accommodating and friendly, and they just leave you alone, so long as you don’t cause trouble - the way it should be. We got to be all alone, all night in a historic hotel, alone in a ghost town. You just can’t ask for more than that. To those who want their hands held in a boutique hotel, look elsewhere, this is the way things have always been done out here in the old west. Come in, sit down, rest a spell and chew the fat. Figure out how to take care of yourself and fit in, otherwise go somewhere else. Just the way I like it. I hope it’s still here in another 20 years, I’ll be back.

A Perfect End to an Epic Road Trip!
This was our last stop on an epic road trip, and it absolutely delivered! My 18-year-old had been looking forward to this destination, and it did not disappoint. The hotel room was much bigger than expected, and we appreciated the complimentary coffee, pastries, and oatmeal in the lobby. The highlight of our stay? A surprise game room across the street with pool, poker, and foosball—it was an unexpected gem and so much fun! The town itself has such a cool vibe, and I truly hope it becomes a hot tourist spot. It really deserves the attention. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

A TREASURE! Sleep sweetly in this Remarkable HISTORIC Property
What a TREASURE! Dave and Scott (proprietors) have lovingly taken this historic property in the middle of a Western ghost town and are beautifully renovating it. The property has a great and grand history as a saloon, meeting place, and rooming house when this area was bustling and shipping over 5 million lbs of wool from the surrounding ranches and farms at the turn of the century. The rooms are clean and crisp with very comfortable pillows and beds. The bathroom amenities generous and they serve a lovely continental breakfast. The ceilings are high and the "saloon" even has a walk in safe made by the Diebold Lock and Safe Company. In the lobby there is plenty of sitting room and even a games/checker table made from rough-hewn wood and a wine barrel. They have captured this "period hotel" perfectly and were so welcoming and kind. The area is quiet and we slept so well.

Happy to have it operating again.
Great staff, available all day. Excellent condition, like-new bathrooms, very clean. Superb Wifi, very high speeds at all times. A wonderful experience, will stay again. I’ve been waiting for years to have the hotel open again, and finally it is.
