The Yawning Portal

The Yawning Portal inn, built in 1306 DR by Durnan on the ruins of Halaster Blackcloak's old tower, it gained most of its renown for being the primary open route to the Undermountain. A well within its walls led down into the first dungeon of Undermountain.

Architecture

A stone building with a slate roof, the Yawning Portal offered guest rooms on the three upper floors. Well-worn boards covered the floor, but the main impression was of comfort. Rich blue tapestries decorated the wood-paneled walls of the common room, which consisted of a bar and tables of stout wood. A signboard that simply read "The Yawning Portal," hanging on chains from a black iron pole above the front door, announced the entry to the inn.
