The only issue is the parking. You may have to park quite a ways from the hotel. Otherwise great experience. Beautiful hotel, lots of restaurants and every part of the hotel is unique.

We loved the Tiki bar in the basement. There’s lots and lots of stairs. No place to park. We parked in a lot below the hotel. Climbed lots of stairs to get to the hotel. It has beautiful decorations. Great food. Getting to your hotel room requires stairs. The hallways seem claustrophobic. If climbing stairs and enclosed spaces don’t bother you it’s a fun hotel. There was a secret bar on our floor. Opened the door it was a narrow room full of people with no windows. It would be really fun there to go there for Halloween. If narrow spaces with no windows bother you then this place is probably not it. Maybe go there for the good food and leave.

We only stayed one night because we were in town for a concert, so we didn’t utilize all the amenities this place has to offer. The food at the ground floor bar/restaurant was good but service was slow - friendly staff though. I would return to stay if I ever visit Tacoma again and would like to check out all the bars!

We had a great overnight stay. Just one night while I picked my truck up from the port. My wife met me there and since she was not on the reservation they would not let her check in without me. I was on a plane and unavailable so she had to wait for me. Little hands maid tale if you ask me. When I did get there the nice gentleman who checked me in had upgraded us to a balcony room and we had a great stay. Not our first mcminimums property stay and we had great food and drinks. Staff was great and room was fun. Comfy bed. I would highly recommend this property.

Quirky and historically rich. It’s such a fun and unique hotel. You won’t need to leave. So much to see and do here. Absolutely beautiful.

We enjoyed our stay loved exploring the different locations within McMenamins! Bright colorful amazing art to explore! Cutest little gift shop! Friendly staff! Close to some really cute shops! Just exploring the different floors and finding the hidden bar was an experience in itself! We will definitely be back!

They have no parking and we had to park on the street and our car was broken into and our cruise-luggage was stolen. We had to cancel our cruise and have the car repaired. The main reason that we did not bring in our cruise-luggage was that we were on a floor that did not have an elevator and we had to haul our overnight stuff up and down stairs. NEVER STAY HERE.

Each room and floor was unique. The fireplace area is a vibe. The bars on each floor are just amazing and the staff and security goes out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. The elevator was out when we checked in and was repaired by the following morning. You really need to stay and try a package or stay when there is a show. And wander in your bathrobe. That's my favorite part!

The area around it is ok. The stair gates are a real pain for dragging suitcases up and down. Room was small but comfortable. Building interior and exterior are lovely. Super nice to sit outside the Spanish bar. Nice to have food on site. Parking is a pain from 3-6.

We were in Tacoma for our daughter's graduation. We spent one night at McMenamins Elk Temple and it was absolutely perfect. Found the speakeasy after a fun family hunt around the property. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Way better than the Airbnb we checked out of that morning.
