Holiday Inn Express Bellingham by IHG
We have stayed here often. With kids and dog and without. Once for two months when one of us was in the hospital for a serious condition. We have always been happy with the staff, rooms, breakfasts, and amenities. We highly recommend this place!

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bellingham
The hotel is a very good value and the room was spacious. It wasn’t scrubbed spotlessly clean, but it was good enough. The staff was very helpful. The secure Wi-Fi didn’t really work in the room, but it did in the lobby. All in all, I’d stay at La Quinta again.

Baymont by Wyndham Bellingham
Honestly review, when we get to the second floor smiled food in the hall way. Seems like some one is cooking on there rooms. And 11:00pm we couldn't sleep of noise in the next door. Seems like someone is living there its not only for travelers. Emagine you traveled long hrs yo expect to sleep. But ...

Springhill Suites by Marriott Bellingham
Staff was incredibly friendly! We loved our stay! The only things I would note was that our room was not very clean and the pool/hot tub definitely need to be professionally cleaned. Other than that, we are for sure coming back!

Quality Inn Grand Suites Bellingham
Breakfast wasn’t great. No meat products. Waffle batter was thin, eggs were ok. The conditioner in the room was empty, employees didn’t seem very happy, WiFi was too hard to access & was told at check-in that tv wouldn’t work & pool & jacuzzi closed. Hotel was clean but kinda worn.
