The Wyman Hotel

The Wyman Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is small, less than 20 rooms I think. Most rooms are on a fully renovated second floor with much of the original 1890's (?) flourish remaining. Bathrooms are all fully modernized, but much of the remaining structure retains is personality. All furnishings are very new and comfortable. Free parking on the street in front or on the side road off the main street. No breakfast, but the SUPER breakfast cafe Kendall Mountain Cafe is across the same side street ( so 2 minute walk). Coffee in the lobby for guests at 7AM. The first floor has a very nice coffee and drink cafe open from 7AM to 10PM; wine, beer, specialty coffees with a very nice ambiance; there were regularly several patrons enjoying the excellent music choices as well as the bar selections. Table and chairs for small conversations and larger table for those doing some catch-up on their emails. Rooms have excellent wifi, no TV and no elevator to the second floor (request a 1st floor room if this is a problem, I think 3 rooms on 1st floor). The location is on Green Street, so out of the hotel door, take a right turn and immediately start enjoying the many different shops on the main street, all maintained in the same 100+ year ambiance. Highly recommended for a Silverton visit."

"It’s my 2nd time staying at The Inn at Lost Creek. Returned on a solo leaf peeping adventure. Magically got the same suite as my prior stay 5 years ago. This place is wonderful. Great service, friendly staff, lovely amenities, room cleaned daily, and “inn” vibe. The free breakfast is delicious and has a different option daily! This was a healing journey for me. The staff had a bottle of wine in my suite awaiting - very thoughtful. Spectacular views from my patio. Actually saw a sunset and a rainbow all in one evening. Highly recommend this place. It’s lovely!"
