Hotels near Tacoma Armory, Tacoma

Does the fragrance of coffee brewing at 6:30 help start the day? Do hot eggs and sausage provide energy for chilly mornings? After work, does music sound welcoming by a fireplace in a lobby? Does the taste of local seafood chowder and creme brulee sound delicious? From the check-in desk to the elevator lobbies, and rooms, awesome glass art is exhibited, along with the artists' inspirational quotes. Some artists are from all around the world; some are Tacoma's fine artists, skilled in locally producing art using techniques learned from Murano, Italy. Quiet rooms remind weary travelers that, ”Silence is golden.” Sweet dreams and wishing you, too, many happy Murano Memories!

Very nice place to stay. Lots of stuff to see within walking distance. Friendly, helpful staff. Nice view from room.

I'm not used to the city but when my family came to the Courtyard Marriott Downtown we were immediately welcomed. Not only were we able to get check in by the desk quickly and successfully we enjoyed the restaurants in the area as well as the Waterfront near the Museum to take the kids on the hot summer day. Front Desk agents never instructed us about our room getting service system goes at any time and without no Housekeeper supervisor help as I asked the Housekeeper in the hallway named Carmelita for assistance. Although she was very preoccupied with her other assignments; she insisted without question to refresh our room; she even asked if we wanted new sheets on the bed!! What amazing customer service; I was truly surprised but utterly impressed. Thank you so much for your assistance. Food was delicious at the bistro with a calming atmosphere; busy elevators but the stay was overall enjoyable.

We stayed for three nights while attending a wedding on Vashon Island. Skip and Jane are delightful hosts and we enjoyed our morning chats over coffee. The bed was comfortable and breakfast was fantastic each day (eggs one day, french toast another, then crepes). Jane double-checked with us (and others) on any dietary restrictions and set up breakfast accordingly for each individual. It is as Victorian a house as one can find, full of period furniture and trinkets galore to keep you busy just checking out each room. Jane went above and beyond for us as our flight was delayed so we could not make our first night. I called and let her know that we wouldn't arrive until the next morning. Since it was after the official time to cancel the room, I was already planning to pay for the night since they did not have time to re-book, but she wouldn't charge me for it. Then, after we decided to stay an extra night, she re-arranged rooms so that we could stay in our same room even though it had already been booked by someone else. Just little things that made the trip great. I have traveled to Seattle a number of times but never had spent any real time in Tacoma. The town has really blossomed over the past decade, losing a lot of the industrial nature. The streets around the inn are very walkable and we enjoyed getting up early and perusing the neighborhood and then heading up to Point Defiance Park and over to Vashon. The ferry is only 10 minutes away. An enjoyable stay and definitely would stay again if we are back that way.

The hotel is newly built and the decoration is very new! Very new and new! Breakfast is also delicious! ! It is also convenient to buy things around and drive!

We spent the night because we were visiting the University of Puget Sound, and it was a convenient location. The room fit our needs, but I don’t think I could stay for more than one night. It’s really basic here - including their restaurant. Dinner menu was the typical pizza and stuff, and breakfast was stuff that they thawed out and heated. One easy thing they could do is require a dress code at their restaurant, because frankly restaurant employees wearing T-shirts just doesn’t seem professional. The room itself was ok - bed, basic flat screen TV, small but functioning bathroom with a shower curtain. The shower water seeped to the bathroom floor with water, but easy enough to wipe up… Just not excited about this place.
