Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma

We stayed at the Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma for a few days during a recent family trip, and honestly, it ended up being one of the better hotel experiences we’ve had in a while. The place was clean, quiet, and comfortable! Everything you actually want when you’re traveling with family. The rooms were well kept, beds were solid (not those saggy ones you regret the next morning), and the location made it easy to get around the city without much hassle. What really stood out though was the staff. They greeted us every time we came through the lobby like she actually meant it not just that forced “welcome back” you get at most places. They helped us get checked in quickly, gave us good local food suggestions, and went out of their way to make sure we had what we needed for the kids. Yo

Let me start by saying the staff I interacted with were genuinely pleasant, and I really enjoyed the morning breakfasts. I made my reservation months ago, and while the process hit a snag due to the property getting bought out, it caused a bit of panic. I figured booking early would mean a better room location, but apparently that’s not how it works.||I was expecting a great view, but a few things made it pretty disappointing. The windows clearly hadn’t been washed in a long time—someone even managed to draw a smiley face on the outside of the glass, which I still can’t figure out how that’s even possible. At night, the view gets completely ruined by flood lamps that light up the entire room. Trying to get the drapes fully closed is a challenge, and any tiny gap lets that harsh light pour

Positive: Convenience to Tacoma Dome. Quiet. Clean. Good breakfast. Negative: Poor lighting in room. Especially in the bathroom for doing makeup and hair and in the main room for doing paperwork or reading.

Having stayed here before, when it was the Comfort Inn, let me tell you. This property has done a 180. Top-to-bottom renovation. You can definitely notice the changes. Staff are very friendly, rooms are updated, the lobby is updated, and breakfast is very nicely set up. Give this place another try if you stayed here when it was the former brand! I'm very pleased with the updates that were made here. I will put this hotel near the top of my preferences if I have to stay in Tacoma again!
