This is a grand old hotel with beautiful woodwork. We've enjoyed staying here several times through the years. It's right on Water Street where the main stores and restaurants are and is a nice little walk to Vesterheim museum.

The hotel is on the Main Street of Decorah with walkable access to shopping and restaurants. Many of the original features of the hotel still exist so it has the feel of a 1920s/30s hotel. Rooms are modern and comfortable.

The hotel is beautiful and up-to-date, but still keeps its vintage charm. Our suite was very clean, roomy and pleasantly comfortable. Overall, this hotel met our expectations and even went further to make our stay memorable.

Excellent stay at Hotel Winn & wished for more than just a quick night! Walked up to Phelp's Park (a must-do!) after grabbing a latte at Impact to go with the excellent continental breakfast. We did visit the bar the night before & enjoyed the potstickers & chicken satay. It is my 3rd time staying at the old beauty & can't wait to return!
