Rebecca Currin
Fun place to stay with lots of history. Some things in the room could use an update but it's kinda what to expect from a historic, gold rush hotel. One thing I didn't like was you had to lock the door from the inside using a key. (No regular lock). But there was a fridge and fireplace, a microwave, and water dispenser right outside our door. The guy who checked us in was very nice. We were doing the Paranormal Preston Castle tour and Rail Explorers, so the location was very convenient.

What a fun old place! Alex, the hotel staff as well as the saloon and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was yummy and there was a very entertaining guitarists playing at the saloon.

We rented out the entire Ione Hotel for our wedding party and had a great experience. Mack and Alejandro were responsive, helpful, and always available if we needed anything during our stay. The hotel itself is an experience complete with pull-flush toilets and total old-world charm. Our guests had a great time hanging out on the balcony and exploring the cute little town. Thanks to everyone for helping us have our perfect wedding weekend!
