Saint Helens Hotel, Neoclassical hotel building in Chehalis, US
The Saint Helens Hotel rises six stories at the intersection of Market Boulevard and Cascade Avenue, displaying triangular architecture across 16,000 square feet.
The structure, built between 1917 and 1921 by William Francis West, replaced an original wooden hotel that operated on the same location since 1891.
Former President Theodore Roosevelt stayed at the previous hotel structure during his visit to Chehalis on May 23, 1914.
The building currently houses apartments, a gourmet foods retailer, and a tax service, maintaining its position as the tallest structure in Chehalis.
The hotel's strategic location at 'The Point' influenced the development of downtown Chehalis by shifting commercial activity from Main Street to Market Boulevard.

Washington holds far more than the well-known attractions of Seattle and Mount Rainier. Across the state, dozens of less-visited sites offer insight into the region's geological history, military past, and natural diversity. From waterfalls to ancient forests to historic lighthouses and military fortifications, Washington presents a substantial range of landscapes and cultural sites. Palouse Falls in Franklin County drops 198 feet (60 meters) into a basalt gorge, while Cape Flattery at the northwesternmost point of the continental United States looks out over jagged cliffs and the open Pacific. Ape Caves in Skamania County is one of the longest lava tube systems in the country, and Beacon Rock rises 848 feet (260 meters) above the Columbia River. The Trail of the Patriarchs leads through centuries-old Douglas firs and cedars, and Deception Pass Bridge connects Whidbey Island to the mainland via a 180-foot (55-meter) steel structure from 1935. Fort Worden in Port Townsend served as a coastal defense installation, and the Wing Luke Museum in Seattle documents the Asian American history of the Pacific Northwest. Dry Falls in Grant County shows the remains of an Ice Age waterfall that was once wider than Niagara Falls. Mima Mounds in Thurston County forms a field of hundreds of symmetrical earth mounds whose formation continues to be scientifically debated. These sites offer practical alternatives to the crowded main attractions and allow for deeper engagement with Washington's natural and historical features.
