Hotel Bellwether Review

Great service and views! Wonderful atmosphere for a wedding reception

Water view room is terrific. Friendly, helpful staff. Food is mighty fine.

Beautiful place situated right in the bay in the harbour with amazing views. The hotel is top rank and absolutely beautiful. I have been a few times for events and plan on returning.

My company hosted its christmas party in the ballroom, and it was a great experience. Very nice decor, good food, friendly staff.

Had dinner at the restaurant, fabulous meal and great service. Cozy bar.

Lovely Hotel in a lovely location. A bit pricey but well worth it if you can afford it. Also a great place for events.

The location is beautiful but very expensive for what it is. My four did not have a window looking out to sea

Fabulous room, Room service was excellent. Drinks in the bar were on point.

Staff was very friendly. Hotel was clean. We stayed when it was fully booked and it didn't seem busy. I hardly saw people. It was very quiet.

Great rooms, great bar, great views, great service.

Awesome place! Super duper pet friendly! Love that they put a dog dish and treats / bottle water for doggo. Romantic setting to. Pic is view from balcony in early February.

Attended a conference in their main conference area. Very comfortable and easy access to parking.

Very quiet, quaint, great view, great drinks, great service. I miss places like this. Little pricey but well worth it in my opinion.

Great place. Have only visited for dinners but service and meals are high quality.

Chef Ryan Houser is amazing! All of his creations were on point. Can't wait to come back to see what else is on the menu.

A wonderful hotel! I stayed here for 2+ weeks a while ago for work and thoroughly enjoyed every moment, and the personal touches thrown into the hotel. I would 100% stay here again.

Great hotel! Awesome staff, very accommodating, bar & restaurant. Right in the water. Parking is a bit confusing but just ask for directions at the front desk if you aren't staying there. Great area to walk around and explore.

The hotel itself was perfect, very clean and friendly staff. We wouldn't recommend the restaurant as we had large groups (6-12) so meals took 60-90 minutes and were often cold. <br/>My husband and I got married there and the staff were friendly and worked hard. The food was excellent for the wedding itself. They offered to store our wedding decor for us as we arrived 2 days before the actual wedding from Canada. They lost some of our belongings and it took 6 phone calls and 12 emails to get half of it back. Some of it was never recovered. There was never an apology or an offer to make things better. <br/>We would not go back to the Bellwether and would not reccomend having your wedding there. There are lots of hidden costs. DO NOT LET THEM HOST YOUR OPEN BAR! Not worth the price tag :(

Great location. Room was large and clean and staff was great. Recommended.

Stayed at the lighthouse. Wonderful view, 4th of July fireworks, very friendly staff

Awesome view with great restaurants within walking distance!

The comfortable bed and room was ok. Bathroom had a mold odor. They wouldn't accept any gift certificates for the holidays which is ridiculous and stay away from the fruit tray. For new years eve the fruit tray got me sick and I spent the evening yacking up the 200 dollar I just enjoyed. All in all I won't go back.

Attended a private event here. The waterfront view was beautiful and it felt nice and private, staff were friendly. I really enjoyed the courtyard and all the light at the venue.

This is a great hotel. Rooms are large and comfy, the balconies and fire places in the room are really nice and of course a Jacuzzi in the room is a nice perk. Staff is really great and the restaurant is very nice, but spendy

Lovely accomodations, customer relations needs improvement.

Beautiful Place, Great Staff! Love their Concierge ;)

A must stop for staying over or dining in Bellingham!!

It was a professional dinner party and the food was excellent.

It's a very nice hotel and the staff is very friendly. The restaurant has good food too
Great scenery as well. Nice place for a walk

Great food, great service, Celtic Music every Tuesday!

Beautiful rooms. Friendly and accommodating staff. Love the waterfront view from the room. Walkable restaurants. Will definitely go again.

Update: be advised usage of any item on the honor bar in the room will be charged at excessive rates. No mention of this upon check-in or at the honor bar. Was charged after checkout and only found out what the extra charges were after calling hotel when checkout receipt did not match amount charged to credit card.

Great hotel in a fabulous location. First rate amenities. Received a free upgrade to a suite without even asking. Complimentary fruit tray in room was a nice touch.

The hotel has a vintage feel, and is truly eccentric. I love the fact that it's right by the bay, and has all of the local conveniences of Bellingham. Downtown is nearby, and there are plenty of restaurants. I would highly suggest staying here - it's beautiful.

We enjoy th Hotel Bellwether, especially the outdoor concerts they host in the summer. Highly recommend to family and friends who visit the area.

Great view of the ocean. Plenty of areas for walking. Quiet peaceful place.

We just ate dinner at Hotel Bellweather. Celebrating our 38th anniversary and New Years Eve. The food and service was outstanding. 5 stars.

The view is spectacular and staff is friendly. The ambiance is relaxing I highly recommend you see for your self.

Nice place, lots of close by food options. Great views!

Best hotel experience I've had in awhile. Super awesome jetted tub with a great view and great customer service

They were host hotel for Bellingham Pride. Room had Bay view, jacuzzi tube with view to outside. Comfy bed, Complimentary water, nice lobby with sofas, on the Bay

Always a good breakfast. I only wish that they would serve hash browns. There pan fried potatoes are still very good.

I only ate at the restaurant. The service was great and the prices were pretty good for a fine dining restaurant. Also a beautiful view.

The best place to stay if you work in the marine business

I went to the Hotel Bellwether for my company Christmas party. I was there early to help decorate and able to attend the restaurant for lunch. My meal was delicious. I had the whiskey crab soup along side the kale salad. Both items exceeded my expectations. The Christmas party was fun as well and all in all it was a great night

Super nice place, with an excellent location. Total pleasure

We haven't even left yet and I can tell you this place is amazing! From the manager, front office and room service staff this hotel is just what we needed for what's been going on. Very clean and well appointed rooms, entertainment outside our room, professional room service employees and very friendly and helpful staff. The view from our room (209) is the best. We are having a great time. This hotel is highly recommended. You won't be sorry. We will be back...no question!

Had a great dinner, and spent the night.
Great food, clean room, wonderful views and friendly staff.

We've stayed at the Bellwether intermittently since 2002. We were doing a pre-Covid getaway before the gates of Hades open up. The hotel was immaculate, as usual, and the day and night staff were very helpful. The view from the third floor was beautiful. You can't beat the Pacific NW on a clear crisp day. My ONLY gripe was no soda in the mini-bar. We are tea totalers and after a hard night hike snowshoeing to Artist Point... Come on! Give us a non-hootch option, heck, you are going to charge me $$ for it! Still beautiful. We will be back. We love the Chrysalis, but the train 50 feet from your room intermittently thru the night gets a bit old.

Beautiful views of the bay and harbor. Also kuru kuru just next door is good sushi

So comfortable, clean, and quiet! Love staying here! And a vestibule view of the water and boats.

The food is so beautiful and delicious. Shout out to the chef amazing job . try the key lime pie
