Top notch! Boise at its finest. Suites are spacious. Chandlers is a wonderful stake house, elaborate menu. Very close to downtown. Definitely a place to consider staying in Boise
Great hotel in the middle of all the action! Rooms were luxuriously appointed (read robes and slippers) with furnishings in excellent condition. Slept well on a comfortable bed without noise from outside or the hallway. Check-in and check-out were a breeze and painless. Every last member off the staff was friendly, pleasant and helpful. Everywhere was clean and well maintained. Will definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!
Fantastic time. Love hotel 43 from the central location to its boutique style. Great value. Very neat and clean with good sized and comfortable rooms. The staff was great to us and we had a great time with them. Special shout out to Avery at the front desk and Cooper the bellman. Both professional and funny. The other bonus is the hotel is connected to the Chandlers which is the best bar restaurant in Boise. Definitely check this place out!
Hotel 43 is a nice spot in downtown Boise with great service and an unbeatable location. The staff were friendly and helpful from the moment I checked in, and the hotel is within easy walking distance of plenty of restaurants and things to do. Everything was clean and well kept, and it felt like the staff genuinely cared about making sure guests were comfortable. That said, the hotel does show its age a bit. The room felt slightly dated, the bed wasn’t as comfortable as I expected, the shower was on the small side, and the water pressure was pretty weak. None of those were dealbreakers, but they stood out enough to mention. Overall, I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars, great service and location, just a few comfort details that could be improved.
Very clean and modern hotel, exceptionally nice staff. No breakfast! Have to walk to their “sister property” a block away. (Didn’t do it) No bottled water for travelers. Get your Carafe from your room and head back to the lobby to fill it up. Arrived very late, room was pitch black and you have to place your key card in a slot in the wall to turn lights on, which is hard to find without lights…
Wonderful place to stay downtown. We were attending a concert in the area and we loved the walkability. The rooms were so nice and we had everything we needed.
I stay here a few times a year and always have a good stay. The renovations last year improved the rooms and lobby and the front desk staff is always pleasant. The hotel is in a great location, with nearby restaurants and a Trader Joe's and Whole Foods less than a 15 minute walk away. Downtown Boise has some of the best breakfast spots and there are a good handful within a few blocks of the hotel.
Great stay at this hotel with our dogs. It was quiet and clean. Location was perfect in downtown Boise.
Eclectic cultural & dining hub, home to the State Capitol Building & museums in Julia Davis Park.
