I have just returned from a tour of SE Oregon, and spent a night at the Hotel Diamond, in tiny Diamond Oregon (population 5). The Hotel Diamond is the "prettier sister" to the Frenchglen Hotel , where I stayed the previous night--sisters in that they hail from the same era, and that they are the only accomodations for miles and miles. I also very much liked the Frenchglen Hotel, but that's not the point here, is it? The management at the Hotel Diamond have created a lodging that both evokes an earlier place in time, but also provides modern comfort. My room was tiny, with pretty wallpaper and checked sheets, and airconditioning (thank goodness!). My room shared a bath (some have private) which was right across the hall. The setting is tranquil, in a large, green meadow surrounded by desert buttes. "Deluxe" continental breakfast is included (Lots of good homemade baked goods), but dinner is extra. I chose to eat dinner in "Frazier's Pub" around back,(rather than the hotel dining room) and had a very good burger and saw my first television in days. It seems wise to check if the pub is open in advance--it seems like it might vary by demand. All in all, it's a charming hotel, and a great respite from desert travel.
