Top Bellingham Hotel Reviews

Hotel Leo

8/10 Good

"The staff were wonderful. I didn’t have a remote for my TV so when I went downstairs to ask, the nice front desk person found a few for me to try. I was able to find one that worked. Although when I looked under the bed to look for the original remote I noticed it was extremely dirty underneath. The bed was very comfortable though and the staff extremely helpful."

Motel 6 Bellingham, WA

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent overnight stay at this Motel October of 2026. The location was perfect for getting to Mount Baker Theatre for a concert we were attending, and for great places to eat nearby. The owners are amazing. We received a very warm welcome and felt their pride in their newly remodeled property. Lily, the office dog, was very welcoming at this dog friendly establishment. The bathroom was a nice surprise. Better than I have had on cruise ships and in hotels in London and Paris. Coffee is in the office in the morning and while there may be fewer amenities than you would expect in a hotel, our stay was perfect for a motel. Safety is a priority of staff, and they go to lengths to make sure the motel and parking lot stay safe and quiet. We will happily stay there again."
