Top Western Washington University Hotel Reviews

Hotel Leo

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very responsive and helpful."

Coachman Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great small hotel. Super clean and friendly and safe. Good bed. Decent and adequate breakfast. For a 2 star accom'n it is excellent, esp at its price. Minor detail: no USB ports but lots of outlets so bring the wall plugs. 2 stories w/o elev so ask for ground floor if mobility issues. Otherwise, a great find!"

Motel 6 Bellingham, WA

10/10 Excellent

"Property is a budget friendly motel, convenient to the freeway and the town of Bellingham. Staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly on check in. Price was the draw for a 1 night stay, but I came to find the ownship of the motel changed very recently and the motel was purchased by a family as a franchise. The new owners were on site and really made the effort to offer excellent service. (Including help hauling bags from the vehicle to the room). I like to support locally owned businesses and these owners rewarded me for that effort. If I’m passing thru Bellingham, I would certainly stay there again. Pool locked inviting and clean, though I did not use it."

Chrysalis Inn & Spa Bellingham, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"This is a unique property. The room was very spacious with a wonderful view of the bay. It seemed that there had been a remodeling. Where there had once been a refrigerator and microwave were now empty spaces and a locked courtesy refrigerator was installed instead. Despite the faact that the property was on the edge of the bay there were train tracks tucked bewtween the hotel and the bay pier. According to my wife the train passed every hour during the night. My perception was much less frequent. Which brings me to the difficulty of writing reviews. It tends to be that although my wife and I have shared more than 50 years of life together, we tend to disagree on almost everything. So any list of Pros & Cons that I write would be undone by her review. The area that we both agree is that the room was spacious with a great view. And we enjoyed our stay."

Sehome Garden Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The grounds were open and welcoming and the lodging was comfortable, clean and had an intriguing Japanese/modern decor. The bathroom was thoughtfully stocked & there was an assortment of teas available. The hosts were amazing and breakfast was delicious, including home made jams & gluten free muffins & individual frittatas served in our room. A short walk up to the arboretum from this scenic and nature focused neighborhood made it an awesome stay!"
