While Boise is not the most exciting city to visit, the Red Lion Downtowner was fantastic. Great view of the city and surrounding area while walking distance to a few restaurants and bars. Very clean and very nice hotel. more

This was our second stay here (the first three years ago). The rooms are good with comfortable beds. A good sized pool was available. It was about 20 minutes to walk to downtown but that was fine. The desk staff were friendly and helpful. We would have given a strong 5 if breakfast had been included. more

Stayed here three times in July 2009, The rooms were clean, well appointed, great bed, wifi worked without a problem, easy to find. As I read some of the other reviews, I was confused, they were not in the hotel that I was at. I travel a great deal, 600,000 air miles in the past five years, This is the... more

Stayed here This weekend for a family wedding. Had two rooms booked with early check in requests so we could get ready for the wedding. Upon arrival there was no one manning the front desk. After waiting a little while we were noticed by someone that was having lunch in the office. She put her food down and came out... more

I have been here many times. Its s nice place, but I think its in need of a little care. Still nice though. My family loves it and it has a good location to everything we wanted to do. Red Lion always has decent rooms and good prices. Will come again. more

My wife and I enjoyed the weekend at the Red Lion Boise. The hotel has been around for a while, but it's clean, well maintained, comfortable room, nice bed, great shower, and the staff was excellent. The breakfast service in the restaurant was a little slow, but we were in no hurry so enjoyed the time. I would return to... more

We had an experience like none other we have ever had before. All seemed well, the room was ok, what we expected, until 7:30 in the morning when the slamming, sawing, and banging began. It was relentless noise from construction that we had never been informed about at check in or we would have stayed somewhere else. We called the... more

Carpet stank; room was stale; "free" wi-fiI NEVER worked; repairman with jackhammer began hammering through cement floor next to my room at 7:30 Saturday morning; not to be outdone, a brand new outfit I left in my room for a few hours went MISSING - never to be recovered. This place is a pit - even for Boise! more

Spent 5 days while attending a family reunion. This is an older hotel, upgraded recently. Clean and quaint. Nice large lobby with room to visit w/ other guests. But, the room colors were rather dark (carpeting, wallpaper and curtains) and the room is only moderate in size - no refrigerator, only an armoir and desk w/ only one suitcase support... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for two nights, and we had a great experience. The room was nice and clean, and the bed was fantastic- very comforable. The hotel has an outdoor pool that was nice as well. We would not hesitate to stay there again. more
