Hotels in The Dalles Oregon

Behind The Rayland Hotel

We remodeled and rebranded The Rayland Hotel from The Dalles Inn in 2025 with great care and intention. Embracing its rich history and prime location in the heart of charming downtown, we draw inspiration from the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. As the sunniest spot in Oregon, we aim to share warmth in every encounter with our guests. From the warmest welcome to our inviting environment, we seek to spark profound discoveries throughout your stay. Our team would love to connect and help you plan your stay.
