Puyallup, Washington1 contribution
The remodel of this property is top notch. The room was perfect, the staff beyond friendly and the price was a steal. I won't stay anywhere else in Walla Walla. After a LONG drive to get there- the desk staff was super friendly and offered a glass of wine to relieve the obvious road stress. The room was well laid out and everything worked as designed. Plus the location is central to the historic downtown with shops and points of interest just a short walk away.

Hotel's Favorite
We really enjoyed our stay at The Finch during our recent trip to Walla Walla. The location is perfect for exploring downtown, we were able to walk to dinner each night and to grab coffees or breakfast each morning. The room was nice and the bed was comfy. I loved that they had a text system if you needed extra towels or anything else. We needed an iron and just had to text the front desk and they brought it right over. On our last day, we needed some packing tape to close up our bottle of wine and they even provided that. The staff was really friendly and you just got a good feeling that they wanted to make your stay great. We used the fireplace outside the lobby one night and it was nice to sit by the fire and enjoy a glass of wine before dinner. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends visiting Walla Walla and we would definitely pick it again if we come back!

We tried The Finch because some people from the area recommended it. We came in after dark and were not sure what to expect but quickly realized it was a great choice. The room was modern and kind of reminded us of European hotels. It was thoughtfully designed and very comfortable. The staff were all amazing. It was almost like a studio apartment. Very happy.

Just loved everything about this place. Title says it all. Staff welcomed us with a small taster of a delicious 'resident' wine (monthly rotation). Rooms were clean and bright and updated. A 5 minute walk to everywhere!
