Overall great hotel experience (service, room, location). The rooms were very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The free breakfast was an added bonus and delicious. There were plenty of options. This hotel was also in a great location. We were able to walk around to restaurants with ease and to the university which is why we visited Missoula. The river view was breathtaking. I will definitely stay here every time I am in town.

Hotel's Favourite
Wow! What a find! This is a newer hotel with updated fixtures. Our room and bathroom were immaculate. We had a room on the top/4th floor. Bed was very comfortable and the room had a nice view of the river. The breakfast buffet was much nicer than expected. In fact, everything was a notch above what you would expect. This hotel is managed very well. We stayed here two nights in early October 2022. You can walk to good restaurants and to the river walk. If we visit Missoula again, would definitely stay here!

Was in town for the weekend and chose this location based on proximity to scheduled events. All the staff were very friendly, the rooms were clean and well taken care of. Food was good, lots of breakfast options for even picky eaters! The beds were very comfortable and liked it was a close walk to the university of Montana campus. Beautiful location with the Clark Fork right out the window. Definitely planning to visit Missoula and stay here again!

Hotel is on the eastern side from downtown Missoula. It sits up on the bank of the Clark Fork River, but does not have river access. Views are beautiful from the river-view suite. The king suite has a wall ac unit 5 inches from the bed which makes for a lot of noise as it turns on and off all night. You also can't access the bed from that side unless you step over the AC or squeeze by. Things they can't help- a flood from someone setting off the sprinklers requiring large fans all down the hallways; a musky smell from the dampness, someone from housekeeping calling in sick resulting in a backlog at check-in and inability to check in at the 4pm time. Things they could've done better- Mounds of towels and sheets piled in the first floor hallway every day. When asking what time the room might be available, the response from “S” the manager on duty was, "I don't know". I asked, "can you give me a ball park? Do you think it will be ready by 8pm?" Again, "I have no idea". Fortunately, the room was ready by 5:30pm. Next issue is the back door slams and needs fixed. They've asked maintenance, but "he's been really busy". So, in our room, which we paid extra for, the windows rattle every 10 minutes when people enter as it slams. Again asked “S”. "He's left for the day". I asked, if it was possible to put a sign to ask guest to not let door slam closed. "No, we can't do that". Just unhelpful, unpologetic and very poor customer service. We are very understanding that things go wrong, but the lack of concern or caring was unacceptable after paying quite a bit for a room that is not living up to the descriptions. I recommend spending a little more and getting a newer hotel with better service.

Rooms may not be extremely spacious, but were clean, included a variety of amenities and have a fabulous view of the nearby river. The outdoor firepits are great for gathering with traveling friends or making new friends. Oh, the beds were comfortable too.

A list of dog friendly restaurants, dog treats, directions to the best dog park ever 5 minutes walk away ( note your dog needs to be friendly and under reasonable voice command) and a good nights sleep plus super nice people working there. Very close to downtown. Loved staying here and seeing a bit of Missoula.

Great stay! Very clean with friendly staff and nice breakfast too. Just off the I-90, so easy access for travellers. Rooms are quiet too even though you’re close to the interstate. Loads of parking too just in case your towing a trailer or have a larger vehicle!

Billings, Montana38 contributions23 helpful votes
The young man (Desk Manager per name tag) was very efficient and cheerful at check-in. Hotel overall seemed clean and plenty of parking. Bed was average and balance of room itself was ok. However, my wife dropped something in bathroom and when she bent down to retrieve, she caught out of the corner of her eye, some gross viewing inside the toilet, up under the rim. Virtually not visible looking straight down. It didn't look like it had been cleaned since perhaps the Bush (1st) Administration. (room 317). Breakfast was simple and plain and coffee was ok. Felt price value was equal to what we got, sans toilet.
