The lower-middle-range Hampton Inn & Suites Tacoma-Mall includes all the amenities that have made the chain a popular choice among business travelers, including free breakfast, a laundry room, and free parking and Wi-Fi. It also features an indoor pool, fitness center, convenience store, meeting space, and business center. On the downside, it’s located well outside downtown Tacoma in an unattractive commercial area where little is within walking distance. Rooms and suites are clean, comfortable, and quiet, if a bit bland. Coffeemakers, microwaves, and mini-fridges come standard, and studio-style Suites include sleeper sofas and wet bars. Rates are competitive, but it's worth comparison shopping with Holiday Inn Express Tacoma Downtown, a similar chain property that's more central to downtown.

Four-pearl Hotel Murano is one of the top hotels in Tacoma, with a central location that's near downtown, as well as shopping and museums. It's a contemporary property, packed with the beautiful glass artwork for which the city is famous. Though largely a business hotel, there's something here for guests of all stripes, including a a full spa with beauty salon, a fitness room, and a stylish restaurant serving food all day -- there's even a late brunch on weekends. The 319 rooms are spacious and nicely finished, with air-conditioning and free Wi-Fi, though bathrooms are small. Patron Rooms include access to a private lounge and free breakfast. While Hotel Murano's location is solid, travelers could opt for the Silver Cloud Inn instead, which has rooms overlooking Commencement Bay.

Three-pearl Silver Cloud Inn is a decent base for travelers who don't mind being just outside the thick of the action in central Tacoma. Sitting right on the waterfront, it's a five- to 10-minute drive from Tacoma's downtown attractions -- and there's a handy free shuttle bus too. Many of the 90 rooms have great sea views, while Premier Kings have dual-aspect windows and in-room whirlpools. It's a place with a lot of useful little touches, such as gluten-free items at the free breakfast buffet, a free guest laundry room, and a weekly evening reception with drinks and snacks. However, train noise can be an issue. Travelers seeking a more central location and a modern finish should consider Hotel Murano in the city center, though rates will be higher.

The two-and-a-half-pearl Hampton Inn Spokane features spacious, clean, and bland guest rooms in a quiet setting off of Interstate 90, between downtown and Spokane International Airport. The 107 guest rooms include microwaves, mini-fridges, free Wi-Fi, and coffeemakers, and some of the suites feature gas fireplaces and two-person whirlpool tubs. It’s a good value and a solid choice for business and leisure travelers alike, with free hot breakfast, free airport shuttle, free parking, indoor pool, and an on-site restaurant. But, the hotel is isolated, with no off-site restaurants within walking distance. Another option travelers could consider that’s even closer to the airport is the Hilton Garden Inn Spokane Airport.

The three-pearl Hotel Ruby is a converted motor court-style hotel in Spokane’s downtown arts district, near The Knitting Factory and Bing Crosby Theater. The 37-room boutique hotel offers clean and comfortable guest rooms that feature bold colors, distinctive music-themed art, microwaves, and mini-fridges. Trendy Sapphire Lounge is known for craft cocktails and warm flatbreads. Given its attractive rates and convenient location, it’s a good choice for concertgoers or anyone simply wanting to stay downtown. But the hotel caters to a young crowd, and it can get loud at times. Another option downtown is the Red Lion River Inn, but expect to pay more to stay there.
