This is a very pleasant and relaxing hotel on the river. The hotel and the grounds are neat and tidy; our room was well-equipped with comfortable bed, small refrigerator, and deck with table and chairs.

The main patio with the fire pits were well done. The pool and hot tub area left a bit to be desired. The hot tub was huge, but the jets didn't do much for a massage.

The breakfast bar had a large variety of breakfast foods.

We had planned to eat dinner in the adjoining restaurant, unfortunately it is not open on Sunday evening. This was a bit of a disappointment since we had no interest in getting back in the vehicle. We ordered in pizza as an alternative which was good.

The view from our room was great, we were on the ground floor so we also had great access. But the bad things about being on the ground floor is you also get a lot of ants in your room. The hotel is aware of the problem and there's not really much they can do, which we totally understood.

The room was very clean and comfy though, and the front desk staff was great and very friendly. They even have a tiny gift shop next to the lobby.

They have an indoor pool and hot tub but it was full of teenagers making out, we so decided to pass.

I would say the worst thing about the hotel was the breakfast attendant. She would not keep things stocked, and they had a great selection of things to eat though.

If we were in the area we'd definately stay here again. We ate at the restaurant in their parking lot and it was not bad, but very pricey.

I first noticed BW Orofino a couple of years ago when driving Hwy 12 and thought at that time that I'd love to stay there. I assumed it was expensve, but since my BF and I decided to go on a Harley ride over Lolo Pass and "beyond" over 4th of July weekend I decided to check in on lodging options. This hotel is outstanding for give or take $100.00 per night. I'm an outside sales travel agent so I research everywhere and everything looking for not only the best rate, but the coolest, neatest, funnest (you get the picture) place for stays and vacations. I loved the look of the deck all around the hotel and the neighboring restaurant/bar and its deck. As I said earlier, I knew I wanted to stay there, so I planned our trip around staying at this hotel. We arrived on the 4th of July and after being on a motorcyle all day promptly headed to the bar across the parking lot. It was like we were the only ones there (and we weren't) the staff was tremendous. We later had dinner at the restaurant and it was outstanding with exceptional service and knowledgable employees (I tend to stay away from hotel associated restaurants, but this one was an exception). We then had a very pleasant surprise -- the owner of the hotel and his wife were throwing a "registered guests only" party on their hotel deck with food, beer, wine, and a city fireworks display. I think that the two of them knew every guest's first name by the end of the night. They are great people and apparently struggled a little to get the place to where it is. We will DEFINITELY be back again. We might even just make it a weekend getaway occasionally just because we loved it there so much (NOT a close drive, but to us it was worth it). I think that my BF and I are fairly picky and I could find absolutely no downfalls to this place whatsoever. I have never written a review about a hotel, but our experience there was so wonderful that I had to go on line and write a review this time. We are now planning the same Harley ride with several other couples and can't wait to show them what a great "find" this place is. When you look at the place, it's not much different than any other hotel, but look deeper and you will see that the owner thought of everyone. The fish cleaning station, the great decks, the firepits on deck, the great restaurant next door, the wine, etc. available for sale in the lobby, the great morning breakfast. Not sure how they are making money, but hope they don't raise the prices before I get there again!!

We booked this room to celebrate an early Valentine's Day. In addition we made reservations at the restaurant for dinner. It was perfect. The ambiance in the restaurant was perfect for a romantic dinner for two. The waiter was extremely friendly and knowledgable.
I can't begin to explain just how much I loved the bed in our room. It was so cozy and comfortable I actually want to buy the same brand/style for my own home.
The breakfast was great: waffles, sausage, eggs, fruit, yogurt, pastry, juice, coffee and more, much more.
I expected less than sufficient water pressure in the shower but I was very pleasantly surprised by a strong, steady stream.
We wanted a jacuzzi suite but those were booked. Definitely try to get one the next time but frankly, I was completely satisfied with the King room we had.
Excellent Romantic Getaway!
Thanks so much!
