The interior is simply stunning. And we loved the restaurant and the attached wine tasting rooms. Plus, almost everything worth seeing in the downtown area is easily in walking distance. The hotel has plenty of parking. 10/10--will stay here again!

I have stayed at the Marcus Whitman a few times but it's been a while. I was very pleased to see that it is as good or even better than I experienced before. As an Expedia VIP, I received a free bottle of wine! As a guest, I received a credit to the in-house dining facilities and that makes all the difference. When I visit Walla Walla again, I will definitely choose the MW as my first option.

I had high hopes for the Marcus Whitman Hotel given its reputation and historic charm, but unfortunately, my stay left much to be desired. While the property boasts a grand lobby and a central location in Walla Walla and this was accurate, the actual accommodations were underwhelming. The room felt dated and lacked the freshness and attention to detail you’d expect from a hotel at this price point. The biggest issues, however, were cleanliness and air quality. There were a few ants in the room and no cleaning service on Saturday’s. Even worse, there was a lingering smoke smell that permeated the space and clung to my clothes, despite being in a non-smoking room. It was off-putting and gave the impression that the room hadn’t been properly aired out or deep cleaned in some time. Overall, while the historic allure of the hotel is still there, the experience didn’t live up to expectations.

Rooms in the connected building (not the old hotel) are small and not very well kept up. Shower stall was really dirty. Exterior doors don’t lock or require a key card, so some questionable security.
