The Marcus Whitman is easily the premier hotel in Walla Walla, especially if you enjoy being in the hub of the vibrant downtown area. The staff were delightful, the recently renovated rooms are lovely with excellent beds, and their Marc restaurant was delicious at both breakfast and dinner. The only off note is they’ve moved to a pricing structure which is not aboveboard. In addition to the advertised price, you are charged $25 per night for an “amenities fee”. This fee covers things like WiFi and parking that were previously included in the base rate. This practice feels underhanded and is unworthy of such a fine hotel.

Location was perfect, the lobby is so unique. Just a couple things could have been better for one at check we weren’t told of the coupons to use at restaurant and wine bar in which we went to both. The bathrooms were tiny at least in west-wing and disappointed room service isn’t offered. Overall a gorgeous hotel in a convenient location downtown.

Nice updates, but some of them look too modern for the period style of the Marcus Whitman. Our room was recently updated and very nice. Housekeeping did neglect to fulfill a booking request, but that was remedied after we asked. We did miss the free breakfast buffet the hotel used to offer. probably too expensive to maintain.

There was a guitar (think loud rock/blues) festival in the conference room on the floor below us we could not hear it! Nice, large, quiet rooms that are well-appointed, and staff were all polite and helpful. We also really enjoyed our nightcap and dessert in the Marc restaurant bar/lounge area. All in all, a great stay.
