Dayton is a tiny town located about 31 miles northeast of Walla Walla. With a population of about 2,600 and a major world-renowned wine destination located so close, it’s safe to say this place doesn’t get much publicity. But drive the extra stretch and check out this charming, historic downtown area. That’s where you’ll discover The Weinhard Hotel — and it will be love at first sight.

The Weinhard Hotel is located on Main Street, where it sits in a beautiful building from the 1890s.
