While we were in Spokane, we bunked at the Davenport Hotel (davenporthotel.com), a Gilded Age beauty in downtown. Just six years ago, it looked like the hotel was going to be razed, but a couple of local entrepreneurs purchased it and spent two years and $38 million dollars renovating the 1914 structure. They restored the beautiful ballrooms, common areas, fountains, and gold-leafed fireplaces, then luxed up the spacious, elegant guest rooms. Today, it really anchors the downtown. Our rooms had great views of the city (I posted a couple of photos of the view from my room below), marble baths, and super-soft pillows, down comforters, and feather beds. We were in heaven.




There's also a Starbucks in the lobby, which was a huge plus!
