I stayed at The Modern for 3 nights while visiting family in Boise. It's quite a unique place, rather hard to describe. It looks like they took an old motor lodge and did an EXTENSIVE renovation. Not just new paint and carpeting, but everything from floor to ceiling. The vibe is totally hip and modern and sleek. Very minimalist. That's... more

This hotel is my favorite thing about Boise. From the soaking tub, to the 'modern cocktail', I actually MISS being here when I leave. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, you feel comfortable just hanging out by your lonesome in the lobby/bar because you know someone is bound to ask you about your day. I have met the most... more

The Modern is a gem. The rooms are beautifully designed, and are superbly comfortable. We were also impressed by the nicely tiled bathroom with a rain-style shower. The bar menu looked inviting, and the breakfast was very good, with freshly squeezed juice. Like other reviewers we would not want to stay anywhere else in Boise - in fact, we're talking... more

A friend and I stayed at The Modern Hotel while visiting my daughter and found the hotel to be amazing---and I don't use that word very often. The staff was extremely friendly, room was spotless and well appointed. Put me down for someone who frankly LOVED the pillows. We both commented that the pillows were several notches above what are... more

Okay so disclaimer, I've never been to Boise before and don't know anything about the other hotels but The Modern has ensured that it will be the only place we stay and will recommend it to anyone visiting Boise. BF and I went to Boise for a Memorial Day weekend. We're pretty laid back people and don't expect too much... more

I grew up in Boise and remembered when this place was a very ghetto hotel. The Modern has done a fantastic job. The rooms are very minimalist, but nicely appointed. The women at the front desk were very helpful upon check in and check out. The bar was a fun place to go for a quick drink, and I didn't... more

First of all, I cannot speak positively enough about all the staff, from registration to the lounge. They are all very professional, helpful and responsive. Complimentary transportation from the airport, internet, coffee and croissants in the a.m. are great amenities. The food and wine in the lounge was wonderful! A significant negative factor is lack of cleanliness. The hall carpeting... more

I stayed at the Modern last year. It was recommended to me by a client that I was in town to visit. Very good call. This hotel is affordable and well appointed. I especially liked the LCD TV in the room and the nice wood accents. This hotel is upscale but still urban. more

I have just returned from a terrific stay at The Modern Hotel in Boise. Let me clarify two things, one I have stayed at great and interesting hotels all over the world and two I have been in the hotel industry for 11 years. Sure the hotel was hip, the design element was great, the beds were bliss, the showers... more
