Overall Ratings & Reviews Steam Plant Hotel

The beds were clean and comfy, but the washroom seemed like it had been missed, there were hairs and a smear of blood on the wall. Parking was an additional $5. It also advertised that breakfast was included, but then at checkin we were told that they were only allowed to give us one voucher for one person (there were three of us), so that’s pretty misleading. Morning staff were super kind and helpful with questions.

Nice updated rooms, love the bathroom steam shower, clean and comfy. Downtown Spokane by your self as a girl with the door to the park lot on the bottom floor, not for the weak! But no issues just maybe would think twice solo

It was very nice and pet friendly. Would stay there again but theyneed to get their act together when it comes to breakfast. On their contact info card it states Continental Breakfast while supply lasts. There was coffee and hot water. End of continental breakfast. Pet charges and parking fees very fair but note there are taxes added onto these charges. Still all in all, it was a very walkable site with Uber scooters all over the sidewalk. Note: the trains can be disruptive to sleep.

Train noises kept us awake all nighy

Clean simple room and very well kept establishment, right downtown in walking distance to some fun spots...Cartoons for the kids projected on the building wall in the evening was an unexpected plus...

Nice modern decor & hip ambiance. Make sure to check out the Steam Works restaurant & brewery-restoration marvel.

Prices were comparable to a local very fancy hotel, I thought this location would be fun and artsy as it was named with the Steam Plant restaurant, which is where we were having dinner. The room was okay, but the people were fantastic! The manager walked me to dinner in the rain as I was hesitant in the location. Super friendly, and we had a great time!

*THIS REVIEW IS IN NO WAY DIRECTED AT THE FRONT DESK STAFF, WHO WERE FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL THROUGH OUR WHOLE STAY.* the room was dirty, like beds had been made, but not much else. Mirrors were filthy, toilet seat had gunk on it, makeup on the doorframe in the bathroom, sticky floors, doorknobs felt gritty, overall gross experience, aside from the front desk staff who checked us in, jade, who was very kind.

Homeless roaming around the property and in the parking garage

They charge $5 for parking in the hotel lot and don’t guarantee you a spot!

Here me out. This is not a hotel, this is a motel. Yes, this is a historical property, but the photos do not support the 'updated' decor I thought it had. I can speak to my room on the 3rd floor, facing the train tracks. The bad: the textured wall paper walls were painted over. The carpet was similar to indoor/outdoor carpet (I wore socks or shoes at all times, and my socks were quite dark after 5 days). There is a gap under the door (install a door sweep, and that should take care of it). Rooms are not sound proof; you can hear you neighbors, you can hear people in the parking lot. Trains run 24/7 beside the hotel (60ft away), but they give you earplugs to sleep with. The shower head sprayed everywhere but my face (clean the head, remove the calcium build up). I ended up using a bath towel to block the door gap - to reduce cool air coming in, the smell of the old train that sat running overnight, and blocking out light. You are at the end of the downtown area and beside the tracks, so there are homeless people around. But I never once felt unsafe. The good: the bed was comfy, smart tv, fridge, and microwave. The bathroom was tiled and updated. They play either the Flintstones or the Jetsons on a section of the wall in the parking lot each night. Would I stay again? No. Was the cost of the room worth the offset of the not good? No. Would I recommend this place to anyone? No. Was I hoping for more of an industrial feel given the history of the steam plants? Yes.

The train that passes directly by the hotel was extremely loud. It passes by about every 30 minutes, day and night. The front desk person was unprofessional.

Waiting 2hrs on the cold because lobby is close and there is no front desk

Great spot … room had an odd pungent smell. Aside from that , will still come back and stay

The lady at the front desk made us feel so welcome! We was so sweet. Our stay was great, the only reason i didnt give it 5 stars all the was across, was the TV did not work in our room.

It’s a decent for the price. Probably would be a bit more expensive if it wasn’t so close to the railroad tracks. The area around the stairs could definitely be better cleaned. The bed was only so so. The bathroom is very nice and clean.

Advertised as queen - the bed was a full. Parking terrible. Next to train track. Sketchy neighborhood.

I enjoyed my stay

With the elevated train tracks adjacent to the hotel, the Steam Plant Hotel can be a bit noisy. But, you eventually get used to the occasional rumble of the train, and they do provide free earplugs for those guests that may be bothered. This hotel is very close to all that downtown Spokane has to offer. Riverpark Mall is a couple blocks away, as are a number of great restaurants. The hotel also offers a complimentary breakfast at nearby Rosie's cafe. I would eat breakfast at Rosie's even if I didn't get a guest coupon. Enjoy your stay at the Steam Plant Hotel!!!

Stayed for a few days to visit my daughter and go to a concert. Location is great, parking is ok across the street. Room wasn't cleaned when I checked in but was fixed.
