If your ideal Walla Walla getaway puts you close to the action, consider a stay at Best Western Plus Walla Walla Suites Inn. Part of a cluster of hotels at the northern gateway to downtown Walla Walla, Best Western is perfectly positioned for those poised to play.
Located just a stretch from the Second Avenue exit, it’s easily accessible for those coming from the Walla Walla Regional Airport or driving in from U.S. Highway 12.
Known for its daily breakfasts, the hotel also offers a fitness area, pool, jacuzzi, laundry facility, conference room and business center to meet the on-site needs of its guests. But one feature that’s most appreciated is its walking distance to Walla Walla’s renowned tasting rooms, restaurants and special events.
The hotel’s lobby is steps away from Walla Walla Steak Company and El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant and just a few blocks from Main Street.
The positioning is perfect for strolling walkable events downtown, including the annual Walla Walla Guitar Festival, Wheelin’ Walla Walla Weekend car show and the seasonal Downtown Farmers Market on Saturdays.
Inside the lobby, guests are greeted with bottled water and access to Nescafé coffee service, nestled against a window looking into the pool area. Take a close look at the artwork on the lobby walls while you’re there. Fun fact: The hotel’s principal owner is also a local artist whose pieces adorn the hotel.
The first meal of each day is a complimentary spread in the Breakfast Room. Catch up on the morning news on mounted screens while indulging in eggs, biscuits and gravy, or waffles you make yourself. The selection offers something for everyone — from fresh fruit, yogurt and bagels to cereal, meats and juices. Vending machines provide a selection of snacks for midday and late-night munchies between meals at local restaurants.
Best Western’s 76 rooms largely include single queens, single kings and double queens. Rooms are equipped with microwaves, mini refrigerators, workstations, Wi-Fi, single-serve coffeemakers and microwave popcorn. By the end of this year, each room will also have a 50-inch television with streaming services — a change that prompted a significant internet upgrade at the hotel. Half the rooms are also undergoing changes so that bathrooms have walk-in showers.
The hotel has pet-friendly rooms and a grassy picnic area on the back side of the property. Motorhome and truck parking is also available, and a security system overlooks the space.
Wrap up a day of exploration in Walla Walla with a dip in the indoor spa or swimming pool, or bring a drink out to the attached fenced-in patio.
Room discounts are provided for government, military and senior citizens, as well as other services. Rewards program members earn points and benefit from quarterly deals.
