Boise hotels (best hotel, living, restaurants)

[violet57]

Don't get me wrong. I love Boise, lived there 35 years and can't wait to return someday. But....why is it that Boise cannot attract a quality, full-service hotel chain like Sheraton, Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, Four Seasons, Embassy Suites, Radisson, Crowne Plaza, Millenium, Omni, Intercontinental, Renaissance, Westin, Windam, Wingate, etc.? (And I am not talking about the budget or scaled down versions like Hilton Garden, Courtyard, Four Points, Towne Place, Hyatt Place). You'd be hard pressed to find a city of comparable size that does not have at least one of these full-service hotels. Yikes, even Eugene, Reno, Spokane and Billings have at least one!

Good point! I had never really thought about this but maybe it is because people here are so laid back?

The best hotel in the area is the Grove Hotel but it is not a chain / franchise.

It is conveniently located in downtown Boise with lot of things within walking distance.

Thanks for this........I didn't know this was there!!!! The biker room now thats cool....

Here I was going to say the Ameri-Tel Inn isn't to bad, it's clean, offers continental breakfast, I've always thought the workers were polite and helpful. It's also by the mall and some good restaurants.

Am a motorcyclist, but usually stay at Super 8 or Motel 6 during my road trips.

So do we or we just camp......nothing like roughing it. I'd say most who get hotels in Boise don't plan on staying that much in the room.

The Springhill Suites on Chinden and Cloverdale is real nice and has a complimentary breakfast. A separate bedroom area, living room. We loved it!
