This is a super cute & quaint hotel. It's quite my husband & I slept well. The town is small. There are no new hotels in the area so this is a definite recommendation if you're in the area.

A must stay if you are ever in the La Grande area and need accommodations. What a gem! My husband and I, plus teen daughter stayed in an upstairs room that was actually two rooms with a shared bathroom - one with a king bed and the other with a queen. The beds were so comfortable. Everything was very clean and uncluttered, with all the basic amenties needed. We had drinks and relaxed in the downstairs restaurant. The drinks (were great as was the atmoshere) before heading out to dinner. Which was a mistake, as we should have just eaten at The Laurel. Small menu, but from what we saw of the appetizers and dinners as we were sipping our drinks, it looked soooooo much tastier than we ended up with. It was quiet despite being on a main road. The other rooms looked to all be booked, but we never heard or saw anyone. There’s a shared balcony upstairs with seating and view of the street activity. Entrance after hours is by secure code to the building itself plus a separate code to the room. We felt very safe coming and going. We enjoyed coffee and a delicious breakfast sandwich in the morning at The Local right across the street. The historic hotel is within walking distance of shops and other restaurants. If our plans call for us to be back in the area, we would definitely stay here again over a regular hotel. And, we'll eat at the restaurant!

We discovered this sweet place in March 2023. We stayed in room 4 and during our most recent stay we were in room 2. It was far more than the two of us needed (a king in one room and a queen in the other) but that was the only option. We had a good meal though it was a little less of a wow than what we had in March. What was disappointing was for $250 we had to walk across the street to a diner to get a cup of coffee to bring back to our room. We would have expected for the rate we paid the room would have had at least a coffee maker.

Great place to stay! Beautiful inside and out... nicely remodeled. Fast response and service. We were on a road trip and decided last minute to find a room for the night. Friendly staff, upon arrival we were offered to come downstairs and enjoy a glass of wine. In the morning we were offered coffee. A great experience all the way around!

This place was simply a joy for us to stay at! Mikayla welcomed us with a complimentary glass of wine. She was a joy to visit with. It is quaint and beautiful, IT'S IMMACULATE and updates were done so tastefully! The night's sleep was wonderful cozied up in luxurious linens. The location is within walking distance of several brew pubs and an ice cream shoppe is located directly across the street.We loved this place and wished we could have stayed more than just one night. We would highly recommend to anyone who wants to feel pampered surrounded by a "day's gone by" quaint atmosphere.Rooms: Gorgeous and quaint!

Review is for restaurant only. Food and service were excellent. I would have given them 5-stars but I’m deducting 1/2 star because the server didn’t tell me the iced tea was pre sweetened but it definitely was a 4 1/2 star meal.

Full disclosure, I did not actually stay here. This review concerns their customer service and deceptive business practices and serves as a warning to others.My wife and I very recently moved across the country from Texas to Washington. As we were passing through LA Grande, OR on I-84 we were looking for a place to stop for the night. We were driving a large SUV and pulling a boat. The Landing's website said "free parking onsite" without any limitations. Reviews looked good so we booked their last room at $250 which was a suite. Immediately after booking we received a confirmation email which stated for the first time that parking was limited and could not accommodate large rigs or those pulling trailers. So we called to confirm this would be an issue and were told that our only option was to park on the street. We were not comfortable with that as we had a lot of personal stuff in both our vehicle and our boat that we didn't want to risk being stolen. Maybe in the 1950s that would be fine, but not in 2023 and certainly not in Oregon. So we asked to cancel the reservation. Initially we were told that was fine as they understood but about 30 minutes later we were called back and told we couldn't cancel because it was within 24 hours of arriving (never mind that we had only made the reservation about 2 hours prior at this point). We were told that they would re-list the room for booking and if someone else reserved it we'd be fine, but if not, we'd be on the hook for it. About an hour later my wife checked their website and they indicated they were sold out for the night. So we thought we were good. She called to confirm only to learn that they hadn't re-listed the room as promised but did so while my wife was on the phone.I wasn't keen on losing $250 so agreed to go by the place and if parking looked relatively secure we'd assume the risk. And we did that. But what we found was that the property is on the main street and the only available parking for anything larger than a car is on that main street. Neither of us were comfortable assuming that risk so we told the clerk that we would not be staying as our stuff would be unsecure. I also pointed out that their practices are deceptive as they clearly know they have a problem which is why they tell you about the parking limitation, but only after you have booked. It's a classic bait and switch.The place may be nice, and the staff may be attentive. But they are sheisters in their business practices and others need to know. Don't book a stay if you want to park on site and are driving anything more than a car.

This old hotel has been beautifully restored and has a wonderful atmosphere. The young lady who checked us in was very helpful and friendly. But the beds are horribleProbably the worst we have slept on. I was up at night more than I slept. I know have a very sore and stiff back from the experience. Hopefully theowner will read this and replace the mattresses. The hotel is wonderful and could have been the best stop on our trip. P.S. if the owners doesn"t like my review I sugest they spend a night in room #2. I give honest reviews good and bad. We are the paying public are have a right to express our views.
This a beautiful old renovated hotel but the beds are horrible. The worst we have ever slept in We lost most of a nights sleep to a very worn out mattress. The owners of this hotel needs to update their beds for the price they charge.

This old hotel was remodeled has a very historical nature. The owners did a nice job. The bad thing about staying here was the bed mattress sagged terribly and made it impossible to sleep. I had a miserable night and now have a back ache. This would be a great place to stay if the beds were updated. P.S. if the owners don't my review i suggest they spend a night in the king bed upstairs. This is a great hotel in a good location but our bed was not good.

Had dinner here with @Drinksatthelaurel and it was delicious and fun. They even got the hubs to try and to like an almond cake. Everything was delicious. Gorgeous little place.

Wow! What a discovery! You can see the time, money and effort invested in the place. The dinner and breakfast meant was delicious! Great staff, high quality food, wonderful experience.

I had the kids in town recently and we ate at The Landing Hotel and Dining and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience. The place was transformed from a broken-down eyesore into a stunning and comfortable dining spot. The decor is impressive, and the food was excellent. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. Overall, The Landing Hotel and Dining is a great place to eat. I cannot speak to staying in the hotel. Highly recommended!
