We have really steep stairs at my mom's house and when my sister first got her greyhound, Maggie, she didn't like the stairs either. She could go up, but refused to go down and we'd have to carry her down. Eventually, she just started doing it. Since my sister's bedroom was upstairs and that's where the dogs slept she didn't have much of a choice.
How bout if you (well not YOU, but someone) carry him down, see if he'll go up by himself? And just each time carry him down and maybe he'll learn it's not a bad thing. I don't know, I'm just throwing out suggestions.
Good luck!

We tried that last night lol.

We all (including Belle) went downstairs and called him but he refused to even come near the door.... he just whimpered.

We brought him downstairs and we had to carry him back up. I tried what I did with Belle and guiding him with his collar (it worked for her) but he started thrashing around and freaking out so I let him go and we carried him back upstairs
