Character and identity
The Historic Davenport occupies a stately early-twentieth-century building on one of downtown Spokane's busiest streets, putting shopping and the business district at the door. The 284 rooms lean into an unexpectedly exotic decorative register: gold tones, animal prints, and leafy plants set against the building's grand bones. Public spaces feel formal and traditional, with a spa, a gym, and an indoor pool with hot tub anchoring the wellness side. The Palm Court Grill handles the main dining brief, known for prime rib and a Crab Louis salad. Service runs polished and business-friendly, with 24-hour fitness and business centres.
Who's it for
Best for:
Business travellers who want to walk to meetings, shoppers working the downtown blocks, and heritage-minded couples drawn to grand early-twentieth-century architecture and traditional steakhouse dining. Anyone who appreciates a hotel with civic presence and a proper indoor pool will feel at home.
Should look elsewhere:
Design purists may find the gold-and-animal-print rooms more theatrical than refined, and travellers seeking a quiet, secluded escape will not get it on this busy downtown stretch. Those wanting a varied, contemporary dining scene within the hotel should plan to eat out.
Bottom line
What you're booking is a piece of Spokane's civic fabric: a grand downtown landmark with a traditional grill, full wellness facilities, and an idiosyncratic decorative streak. It suits guests who value location and heritage over cutting-edge design. Book a higher room category to get the full benefit of the historic architecture, and target shoulder-season midweek rates for the best value.
