First time to stay at The Anderson School and were pleasantly surprised. However when one thinks about it, they should not as it’s a McMenamin’s property.
Staff, food, ambiance and art make for a great stay. Just wish we stayed one more day to watch a movie and swim. Until next time.
This was such a unique and unexpected treat. The stay at Mcmennamins was only one night, but it became the highlight of my vacation. I love when there is something interesting about a hotel I am staying at and Anderson School hotel has interesting for days!
The former school is such a unique vibe for a hotel, but combine that with the way McMennamins has respectfully brought the stories of many former teachers, administrators, coaches and other local celebrities to life through Art was incredible.
There are three full restaurants on site. My wife and I ate at the Woodshop and played a game of shuffleboard while we were there. Then we went to Nui Nui Polynesian Grill for dessert. Both restaurants food was great and the ambiance was top notch!
There is a theatre on site as well, but by the time we finished dinner it was too late to make the final showing.
I absolutely loved this and I am excited to check out the other McMennamins properties throughout the northwest.
The hotel was portion was great, the restaurant not so much. We ate at the restaurant on site and even though we were one of about three people there it took almost 40 min to get our food. After we got our food the server asked if we would like another drink and that took over 20 min to get.
Not just a stay, an experience. Can’t wait to go back

I loved the ambience of the property! Including the pool. Unfortunately I could hear noice from the other rooms that was a little annoying when trying to sleep but i did have ear plugs handy and that did help a bit.
I have visited many McMenamin's properties in Oregon and Washington but this was my first time staying at one and I loved it! The room was so spacious and comfortable! The property is beautiful and there's so much to do all in one spot. No need to go elsewhere. I'll be returning for sure!
This is the second McMenamin's property I've stayed at. I love the whole vMcMenamin's vibe. The Anderson School itself is fantastic. The beds are super comfortable and the decor and touches of local history throughout were wonderful. The tiki bar, Nui Nui, overlooking the swimming pool, was an absolute delight. If I had to nitpick, I would suggest they play more exotica music to enhance the environment and more vegan dining options would be really appreciated. We didn't eat at the hotel as much as we would have liked and instead found those options elsewhere. I look forward to returning at some point.
Fun place to stay. Always appreciate the McMenamin's projects, and the Anderson School is no exception. Beautiful property with lots to do. Wish the rooms had coffee in them, but otherwise it was a great stay!
