Guest Reviews
- Wendy (10/5): - Overnight stay for a concert. Bed was comfortable and water was hot for showering. Ecofriendly bottled hand soap, lotion, body wash, shampoo. No toothbrush or toothpaste. Nottled water is free for HH members otherwise its $3/bottle. Lobby has a little convenience store stocked with snacks and bottled drinks. Elevator was slow especially during high traffic times. Would stay here again.
- David (10/5): - Staff was friendly, rooms clean & quiet. Are is walkable, not a lot of restaurants nearby but very close to the UofW campus
- Blair (10/5): - We had a friendly greeting and a great work out room.
- Becky (10/5): - Easy to navagate facility and a quick check-in, beautiful place to stay
- Garrett (10/5): - Good
- Dynette (2/5): - Would not accept any of my cards. Wouldn't even allow me to run them for payment. Ended up calling and booking a completely different hotel, and paying over the phone with one of the cards Hilton wouldnt accept. This all happened at 1am after flying for 6 hours.
- Stan (10/5): - excellent
- Shalome (2/5): - There were hidden costs for everything. Parking? $20 Breakfast? Hotels.com said it has a complementary breakfast, they do not. Breakfast was a minimum of $10 for a minuscule cup of Greek yogurt with berries, honey, and granola. There were ZERO celiac friendly options outside of the yogurt minus the granola. While a cereal laden complimentary breakfast might seem cheap, at least there’s normally celiac friendly options. The WATER BOTTLES in the suite cost extra. I will never say at another Hilton.
- Savannah (10/5): - Room was very clean, staff very helpful
- Robert (10/5): - Great room, restaurant was awesome, amazing staff and secure parking
- jeannette (8/5): - Great as always. Elevator for some reason between 3-5 was very slow. Like 4-5 minutes each day we were there
- Michael (4/5): - Room wasn'tCleaned
- Gustavo (6/5): - Rooms were clean and good location. However, you leave feeling nickel and dimed. Only breakfast option is mediocre food with a $20+ price tag. Per day parking fee, which I’m generally not opposed to but it just felt like nothing was included in your stay. You couldn’t even get decent wifi without paying for “premium” internet. Standard WiFi was awful. I’ve stayed here when it was a holiday inn without issues, but I probably wouldn’t stay here again. Not worth the price.
- Helen (10/5): - I like that this hotel is 20 minutes away from the Tacoma Dome. Room was clean. Staff was very friendly.
- Jennifer (10/5): - great check-in, easy parking, super clean
- Chris (10/5): - Great location in downtown Tacoma. Close to UW Tacoma, Tacoma Art Museum and the convention center. The staff were nice and helpful. I would stay again.
- Thomas (10/5): - Nice place to stay. Very clean and comfortable room. Staff is very friendly. Plenty of good eating and drinking spots within walking distance
- Megan (10/5): - Stayed here multiple times and it’s a perfect place to stay. Rooms are spacious, staff are welcoming.
- Laura (6/5): - Clean room, good facilities. I hated that I had to pay an extra $20 for parking for one night and the breakfast was also extra cost. I’d rather they increase prices and include everything.
- Faran (10/5): - We really enjkyed our stay at the Hilton in Tacoma. I liked how roomy the room was and the bed was super comfy. I wish there was more then 2 K Cups for coffee but notbing to really complain about. We ever go back to Tacoma we would love to come and stay here again.
- Wistar (6/5): - Dining room needs more help. Wait staff were overwhelmed and needed support. Very very slow breakfast service. If we stay again, we will go to the cafe in the neighborhood.
- Richard (8/5): Monster Jam Tacoma Dome Overnight! - Very clean, close to our area of interest. Secure parking with a fee but was nice not having to street park. One elevator was down so took time to get up/down floors at times. Rooms very cozy. Overall a great stay.
- John (10/5): - Real good value with big room.
- Debbie (10/5): - You need a pool or hot tub
- Cassandra (6/5): - No complaints. Stay met our needs but did not exceed expectations.
- vincent (10/5): - Check in was quick and easy and the parking was easy and convenient
- Bill (10/5): - Stuff
- Karen (6/5): - Room was clean. Very basic. Nothing special.
- Brendan (2/5): - I canceled this
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Nice
- Fredy Alberto (10/5): - It was clean and quiet.
- Bart (8/5): - Staff was curtious and efficient. Premisis was clean and reasonably priced.
- Jennifer (10/5): - Fantastic food at the restaurant and great staff.
- Kirsten (6/5): - Their system was down. We didnt receive a room key for 24 hours. Paid good money to feel like I was trapped because only one of us could leave at time, or elae we would have to be escorted into our room by an employee. The restaurant also clawd down "because there waa no way to rung anythibg up.: 1st impressions are lasting and this was a terrible 1st impression.
- IRENE (8/5): - Great little convenience area . Great front desk and maid service. Simple and efficient check in and out. If you are going to charge for bottled water in the rooms, have an option for filling personal water bottles in a common area. The breakfast was not great, even if it had been included. And certainly not for the price .
- Amanda (10/5): - Wonderful stay! Very clean and close to some great restaurants
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Really would have liked them to keep the pool.That was there when it was the holiday inn. It was also nice to have a snack for breakfast. This year we ate off-site. At a restaurant.
- Nita (10/5): - Staff were great.
- William (8/5): - Superb hotel. Would have five stars ig room cleaning had occurred before 6 PM og the second day.
- Jeff (10/5): - Nice
- Nicole (10/5): - Great service, easy check in and out. Friendly staff. Clean and spacious room with microwave, fridge and coffee maker.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Since rebranding to Hilton from Holiday Inn you would have never known unless you’re local. The new hotel name brings in renovation and upgrades the whole hotel but took out the pool to replace it with a bar/restaurant. Rooms were clean and pillows were comfortable. The best part is the parking garage so you don’t have to worry about finding parking on the street.($20 fee)
- Dana (8/5): - Nice place to stay.
- Jenna (10/5): - Clean and updated rooms. Great location near Tacoma Dome, transit and breweries. Staff are awesome and great amenities (secure parking, nice gym and snack for sale in lobby).
- Allen (8/5): - Nice property and room. Only issue was the AC was a little loud.
- GARY (10/5): - EXCELLENT IN EVERY ASPECT!
- Thai (10/5): - Clean and safe
- Yalonda (10/5): - Very nice hotel and convenient location. Staff went above and beyond to accommodate.
- Debra (6/5): - Room was not made up by 2:30 when we returned for the day. Wake up call not received at time requested.i. My opinion, not worth the cost.
- Spencer (10/5): - Nice clean spacious room. Walkable to downtown Tacome
- Brent (6/5): - When we arrived, there was only one person working. This was at 3pm, which is check-in time. The person working was on the phone, and did not acknowledge us for 10 mins while we stood there right in front of them. Everything else was fine after that, but this is a good indication of poor hotel management, so be cautious.
- Jon (2/5): - Terrible value for the money. Avoid this area at all costs
- Kalena (6/5): - I would have stayed here again. But the experience was influenced by a fire alarm at 7:30 in the morning and continual lights and alarms though out the morning robbing us of sleep and keeping us on high alert. But the location was very convenient for our walk to the Tacoma Dome for a show and the staff was friendly and hotel parking was very affordable.
- Tim (10/5): - Clean, bright and comfortable with an extremely kind staff. We'll be back!
- Jennifer (8/5): - Great, bright, clean lobby and rooms.
- James (6/5): - The overall state of the property was nice. The parking fee is obnoxious, but there was enough parking on the street. Beware that that can fill up during the work week though. The surrounding area is okay. It's not unsafe, but it is surrounded by homeless camps. So, i would dock that one star. My biggest complaint is the amenities. I washed my clothes the last day I was there, but the dryer card reader stopped working and I was not able to pay for the dryer. The staff at the front desk basically brushed it off and said there was nothing he could do. He basically made no effort to try and rectify the situation. So, I was stuck carrying my wet clothes upstairs. If he had been more alert to the situation or offered some sort of remedy, I would not have been so upset about the situation. Overall, I personally will not be staying here again. It's not a bad hotel. It's just not worth the money to me.
- Ron (10/5): - One of only 2 places I’ll stay in Tacoma. Love the staff and the convenience
- Shana (10/5): - It was great
- Suzanne (10/5): - We stayed 4th of July so it was noisy with fire works but not bad. Comfortable bed and great place for the dogs.
- Darius (10/5): - Friendly staff, clean rooms and bathroom. Quiet and pleasant.
- shirley ann (10/5): - Very nice hotel. The staff were really nice as well
- aaron (2/5): - Very very decrepid property. Rude staff. There was loud music playing in multiple rooms around us. Management told us to be please go back to our rooms and that there was nothing they could really do.
- Ronald (10/5): - Rooms were very well furnished (usable surfaces, storage, bathroom towel hangars) compared with other properties we encountered during 2 week vacation around Olympic NP. Cutting corners seems to be the latest unwelcome trend in the hospitality industry.
- RP (10/5): - :p
- Doug (10/5): - Although street closures in the neighborhood made getting there a bit problematic, the hotel was very clean and comfortable. The inhouse restaurant has a somewhat limited menu, but is convenient.
- Celeste (10/5): - Great location
- Naomi (10/5): - Everything was beautiful and top notch. Area was more sketchy than I realized but the actual hotel was great.
- Jennifer (2/5): - We never got a room. Their computers were down, so after arriving at 5 pm we sat in their lobby and waited until 10:30 pm before walking across the street and getting a room and another hotel. They offered us a $25 food voucher only after I asked. This is the same hotel that we had to get a new room after arriving and opening our room to a bed that had obviously been “used” vigorously prior to our arrival. Never again.
- Penelope (10/5): - Clean and neat
- Aaron (10/5): - Very good experience.
- NILESH (10/5): - Very much clean
- April (8/5): - A bit expensive for area, but comfortable.
- Gladys (10/5): - Clean and had all the necessary amenities, a restaurant and gym. Everyone was friendly. Convenient location too.
- Deborah Francine (8/5): - Second time staying there. Rooms and cleanliness are good. Staff and service are lackluster. Restaurant breakfast is good but overpriced. Good location.
- Karleen (10/5): - Friendly & courteous staff. Bed was really comfortable. Clean rooms and lobby area. Only stayed 1 night but all the amenities we needed in the bathroom were great. Quiet which made sleeping enjoyable. Ovwrall a perfect stay.
- Tzu-Chun (2/5): - The front desk said I booked through Expedia so I can’t have early check in. But others can check in at the same time. The staff said I requested I a disable room. But I didn’t request for that.
- Christopher (10/5): - Great stay. Convenient to work and downtown.
- Alexander (10/5): - Great location ( road construction aside). Only points of note, after coming off the elevator and heading to the room there was a very noticeable smell of marijuana — a bit concerning on a 100% non smoking floor — but it was not noticeable in our room. The smoke detector in our room (426) was covered and taped, perhaps a remnant from a recent ceiling paint job? Would be best if it was removed so as not to interfere with the intended purpose of the unit.
- MICHELLE (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable. We would stay again here.
- Bridget (8/5): - Great front desk employee and a comfortable room
- Keith L (10/5): - Cleanliness.
- Tara (8/5): - The smoke detector went off when we showered with the bathroom door open. A long time waiting for an agent at the front desk to check out. Everything else was great! Thank you. We would stay again.
- Denise (6/5): - We loved the hotel room it’s self , but what we did not like was there breakfast wasn’t included and we had to pay an extra $15 to park in the hotel parking which was not told when we made our reservation.
- Charisse (10/5): - The hotel itself is excellent for me. Rooms were clean. Even used the gym and it was good enough. We had a fridge and a microwave. The hallways and lobby were clean. There is a fee for parking which was stated in the description. Only downpart was the homeless people around the area. Close to the downtown area but can be sketchy at night. I would recommend this hotel for travelers. Good service and location is very convenient.
- David (10/5): - Came up to Tacoma for eye surgery, this was a great place for us as it was super close to the hospital and Doctors office. It was a great room, the shower was fantastic! Bed was super comfortable. Everything was clean. Was a bit disappointed with the food downstairs and the construction going on across the street, but otherwise great stay.
- Cynthia (10/5): - It was located next to the University of Washington’s Tacoma campus. We walked through the campus on our way to the Japanese Steak House the first night we stayed there.
- heather i (10/5): Tacoma convenience - Friendly staff! The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Great location which felt safe and parking was very easy. Would stay again!
- Sonya (6/5): - The mattress was hard as a sidewalk. We both didn't get much sleep. If you like a slab of cement for your mattress, this is the place for you. Every thing else was great. Very clean rooms. Easy check in and check out. Great gated parking
- Kelly (8/5): - Very comfy beds, quiet, clean, and friendly staff
- Amanda (6/5): - Overpriced for what you get. Nothing is included in the room rate—breakfast and parking ($15/day) cost extra. The parking garage has leaky, duct-taped pipes, and noise is a major issue, especially from nearby train tracks and loud plumbing. The front desk staff was unfriendly, and there's a $50 incidental fee charged upfront, which takes 3–4 business days to be refunded. Overall, a disappointing and noisy stay.
- Alexander (6/5): Here for the bull ride. - The room has thin walls meaning you will hear everything from talk to boot stomps. The rooms were recently renovated so they are very nice and clean, but the building is old just be aware of that.
- Barbara (10/5): Lovely Experience - Very comfortable. Check in was easy. All staff were professional, friendly, and helpful. We would stay there again.
- Kathleen (6/5): - Staff was friendly and room was basic but clean. Nice gated parking garage but cost $15 for parking, which only has a 6’8 clearance so not suitable for all trucks. Highly recommend the garage as there are a lot of homeless people in the area. Restaurant is overpriced for quality of food, would definitely dine elsewhere. Snacks available for purchase, but a soda costs $5.
- Carol (10/5): - We had a great stay. Checking in was simole & the desk clerk so very nice. It was close to the Tacoma Dome which is where we were heading. The restaurant was nice. The dish that we had was okay but not the best we have had. The waitress was superswee
- Ron (10/5): - Love staying here. The only place downtown I’ve never been broken into.
- Deborah Francine (8/5): - Construction going on the street below (Apr 2025). Large, clean room - everything worked. Service is great. All staff very friendly and helpful. Parking and restaurant way overpriced.
- William (6/5): - In the heart of downtown. Easy walk to the glass museum, waterfront stroll, antique row.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great hotel, not ideal location. - Hotel was great. Room was clean, comfortable and big. A lot of construction happening in the area at the time. Not a great neighborhood for walking around but we had a nice view of Rainer.
- Christine (8/5): - Building is very new. Rooms, halls, lobby all look and feel brand new and very clean. Staff were awesome, appreciated the gated secure parking as well for only $15 per night. Be aware the ENTIRE surrounding area is under heavy construction - streets are closed off and being repaved, construction fencing, rubble etc. However there are 3-4 cool pubs and cideries within walking distance so we took advantage of that.
- Haivan Viet (10/5): - Walkable to UW Tacoma
