- SSSage SSep 28, 20255.0I’ve stayed at this Holiday Inn Express twice now—once in 2020 and again in 2025—and both times have been excellent. In fact, it’s only gotten better over the years. This is easily one of the cleanest, quietest, and most comfortable hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The beds are incredibly soft with pillows that make for the best sleep. Room temperature is always just right, and the modern room design feels both stylish and cozy, with plenty of space for luggage. I especially appreciate the thoughtful layout—the feng shui just feels right. The bathrooms are another highlight: extra counter space and phenomenal lighting make them so convenient. Staff here are consistently welcoming and professional, which adds to the overall comfort of the stay. Parking is plentiful and feels safe. And as a bonus, the hotel is right near one of the best breakfast spots in town, The Birch Door. All in all, this hotel offers great quality for a very reasonable price. It’s my go-to in Bellingham and I highly recommend it.

- MBmarcia bowdenSep 21, 20255.0Beautiful, well maintained hotel. Staff is very helpful and polite. Rooms are immaculate. Love the decor. Very nice breakfast bar that is smaller but very well kept. Our first choice whenever visiting Bellingham.
- EDElizabeth DavisSep 21, 20255.0This hotel was very clean, smelled fresh, looked nice, and had a cute little pool and hot tub. I am already looking forward to a chance to stay again. The breakfast was delicious and had the coolest pancake maker! My daughter loved the pancakes while I enjoyed the egg white omelette and turkey sausage. On top of all of that, the customer service at the front desk was always great, quick and friendly. THANK YOU!!
- KKKristopher KussSep 9, 20255.0This hotel location was very easy to access. The staff is very friendly. I arrived after 8 and was happy to see that the pool is open until midnight. The hot tub was nice. My room was very comfortable and clean. The bed was soft on top and still offered good support. They offered a large selection for breakfast. Egg white omelets, scrambled eggs, sausage, yogurt, coffee. They even have a pancake machine. I enjoyed breakfast on the patio.
