Built in 1921 by timber tycoon Simon Benson, the Columbia Gorge Hotel quickly became known as the “Waldorf of the West.” A magnificent villa perched on a scenic cliff, the Hotel offered sweeping views of the majestic Columbia River as well as the very finest accommodations and dining in the northwest. The hotel was a favored retreat for movies stars like Clara Bow, Rudolph Valentino and Shirley Temple, presidents like Roosevelt and Coolidge, and other social and political dignitaries. These were the days of steamers and speakeasies, of Valentino and the Model T; a time when people were dancing the Charleston and listening to jazz at the Cotton Club. The Hotel continues to provide the same lush ambience and lavish service that has attracted the political and social elite for years.
