We've never stayed in a Hotel like this before. If you've driven down Hwy 101 in Oregon, you've probably passed it without a thought. Don't. Stop. Stay. We will definitely come back. It was fabulous. Older style hotel. Only 7 rooms. Wonderful attention to detail. (We had a personalized, handwritten welcome card on the door!!!) Hotel themed to the 40's. No phone. Clawfoot tub(it had a modern shower too), 2 rooms have detached bathrooms and queen beds...all others BIG King and attached bath. Common room for breakfast, reading, gaming, music, relaxing, visiting,???...great view too across to Nehalem Bay.(Binoculars on the windowsill) Sooo relaxing.
Above average and high quality Continental breakfast.
Owners Winston and Marin most delightful...at least on the phone! We never met them, but their live-in manager, Bobbie, was a one of the most accommodating and genuine hosts we've ever encountered in our travels. She was EXTREMELY hospitable. They should be proud. We felt at home. 3 days was too short. Several other guests were many time repeat visitors.
Don't forget to try the Seashack restaurant across the street, especially for the Babyback ribs and the Navy Bean soup!
And , take it from us, drink your wine in the common room! :)

This hotel is great. We had 1 of 2 rooms that do not have a connected bathroom and I still loved this place. You get so much for such a great price. The continental breakfast is out of this world, Fresh fruit, Gourmet coffee, Bagels and cream cheese, Great cereal. I just can't say enough good things about this place. It is just a great atmosphere overlooking Nahelem Bay. Absolutely Wonderful.

We were so impressed with the customer-friendly attitude that we got from Winston and his staff that we left the Sylvia Beach Hotel a day early to come back and enjoy the far more gracious and customer-friendly surroundings of the Old Wheeler Inn.

The beds were comfortable, the rooms spotless, the make-your-own breakfast options were better than you'd get at a chain, the great selection of DVDs to watch was a nice touch and the points-in-the-right-direction were an additional plus.

If you're looking for a cozy, unassuming and charming place to stay, this is it.

Nice folks, beautiful setting. Clean and nicely decorated. This is a GREAT place to stay. Pretty good restaurant across the street and good shopping for antiques next door to the hotel. I've stayed at the Old Wheeler four times now and it just gets better.
