Historic Union Hotel and Apartments

I just love staying at this unique, clean, quiet hotel! I visited for the first time 27-30 June and loved it so much I returned again last week, 18-21 July! Both times to play golf at Buffalo Peak and La Grande Country Club. Thus, I felt it only fitting to reside in the 19th Hole themed room.
This place isn't your run-of-the-mill hotel. It not only has unique character because of its history and it's claw-foot tubs, beautiful carpets, tile and wood floors, and woodwork, but you're treated like family by its very kind owner Charlie and his sweet dog Rosie III. So much so, that I find it hard to leave! And the place is so peaceful being that it's located in a very safe small town with very little traffic...I thus sleep really well on their comfy beds. Hopefully, when the economy and labor market improves, Charlie can one day reopen the restaurant, but for now some good restaurants and stores are within easy walking distance.
Definitely one of my favorite places to stay in all my frequent travels playing golf! Inexpensive too!

My wife and daughters loved this hotel. The design of our room in a rustic western style and the items downstairs drew them it. It was fun to read the description of each room outside of the rooms and the owner was very friendly and welcoming.

Beautiful hotel full of history. Everywhere you look is awesome, without being overwhelming. Charlie, the owner and operator is genuinely nice, and cares about the guests. This is a place that my family amd I will stay again. We stayed in the Signature room. It was the most comfortable place we stayed on our 9 day trip. The coffe in the morning is pleasant, and the entire grounds are interesting and there is plenty to explore just within thw hotel itself. Please keep this piece of Oregon History around for generatiins to come.

We recently attended a birthday party at this fantastic Hotel. The owner Charlie was absolutly a dream. His personal touch and food was out of this world! I cannot say enough about the entire event. Sandra (staff) is like a beautiful butterfly and sweet as can be. What a great night! This is what life is about, connecting! Thankyou Charlie

We, 8 cyclists from Vancouver BC, had a fantastic stay at the Union Hotel for the start and end of a week long cycling trip around the Wallowas. The proprietor and staff were amazingly helpful, allowing us to store our bikes in the basement and coordinating for an early breakfast time. On our final night of the trip we had dinner in the hotel dining room which was fabulous, and with a touch of glam! This is such a warm and friendly place!

We stayed in "The Signature" room and it had a bedroom, private bathroom with a huge clawfoot tub, and a sitting room. Even though the weather was hot, our room was cool and quiet. We had a peaceful weekend checking out the town, which has a fun museum with very detailed displays, as well as a park right behind the hotel. We also had a great dinner of lamb chops and shrimp scampi in the lovely restaurant. The owner was also our server for dinner, and she was friendly. I'd recommend this hotel to people who like being in older buildings. I'd descibe the setting as similar to a museum or antique store.

The cuisine is absolutely delectable. I would drive quite a distance to eat in this establishment. The room we had was quite cute. I would advise to get a room on the back side of the hotel, as the street noise ( from kids) was loud into the night hours. Also, something I did not consider, is there are not electrical outlets in the bathrooms. At least not in our room. I would stay again though!

A wonderful historic hotel, built in 1921 and decorated with a great assortment of antiques and art. We stayed in the Annie Oakley Room, where the actress who played her in the old TV series stayed - lots of fun and informative pictures on the walls. Ruth, the proprietor, was exceptionally kind, and even let us special-order breakfast. We were on a long road trip from Canada to Wyoming, and Union OR made a lovely rest stop in the middle, just off the highway. Would definitely recommend it!

Owner very very nice. You could tell he loved his hotel. Stayed in the Clarke Gable room. Everything clean. It was day before memorial weekend so he was busy opening up public rooms, closed since COVID. Absolutely loved our stay.

I understand it's under new ownership this year -- headed there for a few days in January. Just wanted to say that we loved the place; have stayed twice; gorgeous rooms and building. We had no problems with the prior owners. Glad it is back in business. Also, although it is definitely hard to find good meals in Union there is basic fare available (not too late) and there is a cute museum (when it's open).

This place is the best! Th 19th Hole room was spacious and accommodating for the time we stayed.
This quaint hotel brings you to a very nostalgic feeling with the antiquity of the decor.
I truly felt welcomed as I came in to make my reservation and even as we departed. An experience I would hope everyone traveling through this direction gets!

P.S. check out LJ Brewskis. Amazing food!

Ruth, Rosie, and Charlie run a tight ship, and still manage to crack me up and make me feel at home in this BEAUTIFUL place. I have stayed on the RV side, and am now an extended hotel-client (for school) and the rooms are immaculately kept, and lovely. I highly recommend a stay here! The perfect place to explore Uhion county from!

This hotel is super unique and pretty neat, especially for anybody who likes BNBs, history and a simple stay. For somebody wanting cable TV and a pool, you'd be better off going to a chain. The owners of the hotel are very friendly guys and there are some cats milling about the first floor. The rooms are clean and have charm.

This is a great hotel, almost a hundred years old, with just nine rooms. Each is individually furnished with antiques which also means no TV and no fridge in the room. Breakfast is only served on Sundays and you should definitely try it, should you get a chance.

The rooms fit your mood depending on what you are looking for. I was looking for comfort during these strange times and found it in the Signature room. It reminded me of being a kid and feeling loved and safe staying with my grandma. Just what I needed!

The RV section is sweet. Quite green pleasant. Beautiful views of the Union City park. Walking distance to the Union City Market along path by Catherine Creek. Highly recommend the RV area.

Loved our stay. Was our Economic Stimulus vacation. Frequented this lovely hotel which is doing its best to bring back the glory of its past. Considering the scope and scale of it, the owners have done an amazing job to make it welcoming. Amazing food, too. And I live in Portland, so-called bastion of all things good and edible this side of the Cascades. Angie's (sp?) next door is perfect for coffee and browsing. Anthony Lakes skiing is not to be missed. Buff Peaks Golf is also like a course out of Scotland. Great way to spend a Staycation...

I have had such a wonderful time at the Historic Union Hotel. Every single visit has been such a pleasant and positive experience. My credit goes to the owner, Charles Morden. He is kind and funny and makes everyone feel like family. You will not find that kind of service nearly anywhere else. I wish more businesses were like this hotel. If you get the opportunity to stay there, you will really enjoy it. Not to mention the unique decorating and antiques!

Love the whole vibe to the place! The staff was super nice. Also it was great that the park was next to hotel. The room I stayed in was also very homey and overall great experience!

Super nice owner Charlie.. Very clean room and so interesting, each room has its own story .. We stayed in the room downstairs very comfy .. Keep the History going .. Great Job Charlie..
