Highlights: love that this is an old school converted into a hotel with lots of fun and delicious restaurants and bars on the property. I love all the art and homage paid to Bothell famous figures. Super, super friendly and welcoming staff. Cons: the smell. It's an old building, I get it. But I could not get over the musty smell of the hallways. Thankfully the offending aroma did not bleed into the hotel room. The bed and bedding were just ok. I would have preferred a cozier bed. No fridge or microwave in room so we could not keep any leftovers. read more

In general, I adore McMenamins and feel they are a jewel to the PNW. I've visited numerous locations but this is the first time I was an overnight guest. As a hotel guest, I was gravely disappointed. There were no extra accommodations or amenities. There was not an easily accessible ice machine, you had to go into a restaurant flag down staff and have them fill up your ice bucket; but only available during business hours. Coffee and hot water were only available during a short time period in the morning, outside of that time period you had to go to a restaurant and purchase coffee or tea. The king sized bed room I stayed in had plenty of room to accommodate an in room coffee/ tea bar with hot kettle. On Friday and Saturday nights, be prepared to have non-hotel guests walking throughout the building in order to visit the hidden speakeasy "The Principals Office," which by the way would be a great spot for an ice machine and drinks or snacks for hotel guests. As a woman, staying in a room by myself, it was unnerving having the main doors open to any and all. Additionally, it was sad to see that the hotel market was filled more with knic knacks and McMenimens commercialized products rather than items a hotel guest would need. Would I stay at another McMenimens hotel? Only if it's convenient, sadly I would not go out of my way. The grounds and gardens are beautiful at this location and it is a great stop for wandering around or bar hopping. read more

Disclaimer- visit McMenamins Anderson School for beer festivals. We have never tried the food. With that said, like the majority of McMenamins properties I have visited, they are always interesting with a sense of historical flair. A beautiful property with all kinds of little treasures as you explore. This time we came across The Shed. It's a quaint little cocktail/ whiskey bar. Limited seating but great customer service. Very knowledgeable on what they have available. Look forward to exploring the property more. The Winter Beerfest is always a fun event and kudos for the additional fire pits! read more

I recently stayed for a night at Anderson School during a business trip - it was definitely on my hotel bucket list to stay at this iconic PNW location. I was in the "Len Fellez" room on the third floor. There's only one elevator, so it was a bit of a hike from the lobby to get there, but it was cool to finally arrive in my spacious, moody spot. The room definitely showed its age, but that gave it some genuine charm. The bed was comfy, the bathroom was clean, and the (free) wi-fi was strong. There's no in-room coffee, but they have a sweet coffee area set up in the hallway from 5-11am daily. My room did get a bit noisy from the morning traffic along Bothell Way once rush hour hit (luckily, the hotel provides earplugs). But other than that, it was a super quiet stay. Personally, I found the larger-than-life portrait of Mr. Fellez on my wall a bit unsettling, but if you like spooky paintings that semi-glow in the midnight darkness, definitely request this room! The hotel is somewhat quirky for sure. If you're used to a chain hotel, this is not it. But if you like something a bit eclectic, Anderson School is definitely worth checking out! read more

The front desk agent was kind and helpful. When you first walk in the room, there is definitely that "wow" factor with the extravagant style, maximalist decor, and terrific lighting. However, upon settling in we did notice a few things that weren't smoothed over (a tack on the floor that could have pricked someone's bare feet, some peeling paint, a tear in the couch fabric, and some rungs missing in the curtain that did not allow the window to be covered fully leading to a lot of light being let in during the early morning hours). Overall, the hotel is unique and beautifully whimsical. With a few extra comforts, it would truly be a stellar stay. read more

Wow what a beautiful place cozy by the outdoor fire pits. Awesome atmosphere great food and drinks. Highly recommended going here and spending time walking around, eating and dining. Had glass of white wine with black bean burger no bun and side salad. Very delicious. Parking is a challenge at certain times, I was able to find one right away. Antonio was very helpful and definitely attentive. read more

Our water color group painted at the Tavern on the Green today, and had a very enjoyable time. Cora was our server and she did an outstanding job of taking care of everyone. I had the turkey and bacon sandwich with fries and it was delicious. I first had hot tea, cranberry orange. It was loose tea served as pictured. Really yummy with honey! And the light was perfect for painting! read more

We visited Portland a few years ago and came across one of their many electic taverns. I wish I remembered the name of the property- but, it was multi level and had this ginormous wooden bar that shelved the liquor bottles. I forgot where it actually got imported from. We sat at the Portland bar chatting up the bartender. And he gave us the rundown on Mc Menamin's properties and how they'll repurpose many locations. When we left, I looked up the various locations and knew- SOMEDAY we were gonna stay at one of their many electic school properties! Fast forward to 2025. Since new booked our Alaska cruise to sail to/ from Seattle- Anderson School was the place to go. Although it's about 25 miles out of the Seattle area- I figured this was our only chance to enjoy the property! I booked our stay way in advance. And took advantage of the pay early deal. What originally was a premium king room- sofa included. I figured more leg room to stretch out after disembarking a 7 day cruise. Hubby got a missed call while we were on the cruise ship. Since our phones are on Plane Mode- we don't receive calls. But, Jesse from Anderson School, left us a voicemail. Jesse mentioned there were issues with the premium rooms and if it'd be ok if he gave us a standard king room. Thank goodness we happened to be in port when we realized the voicemail. Hubby called Jesse right away and explained we were on a cruise. We told Jesse the room switch was fine (because I was REALLY looking forward to our stay). And while they were in the phone- hubby explained we'd be getting off the ship by 8am and would most likely arrive at the hotel by 10am. By the time we arrived by 10am- Jesse was very accommodating and very apologetic as well. He was able to get us checked into a room right then and there! Which was a huge relief! Here at this property- it's not your typical cookie cutter hotel chain. And there isn't much of a lobby, per se. There is one couch at the Tavern on Square- (next to a fire place) which is in the same building as hotel check in. But, MANY out door seats. Our room was on the first floor (thank goodness) and closest to the elevator side of the school building. There's only one elevator. The school building is awesome! Yes, hallways are dimly lit. Which is fine with me. Not a fan of LED lights. LOL. And each room's door has a name painted on it. Our room 110- had the name of the vice principal! Since I was in a medical boot- this arrangement helped out so much, being on the first floor. As soon as we settled into our room- I felt the need to explore the school building. Daily coffee available on third floor- outside the Principal's Office- til 11am. The Principal's Office opens at 4pm, I believe and it's such a teeny cozy space. There a bar inside and you can actually order food! So, we did grabbed our night cap from there. While hubby slept- I sat outside under the trees and read my magazines. Watched some squirrels putter patter around. By the time it was lunch- hubby joined me outside at The Tavern. There really is no reason to leave the property. After we finished lunch- it was time for the 3:30pm matinee! For $11/ adults- the theater was great! First come, first served on seats. I thought they'd be the hard wooden stiff auditorium/ theater seats. But, these were cushioned and cozy. The seats actually rocked! We watched How to Train Your Dragon. You can order drinks and get popcorn and other snacks. Afterwards- we walked by their garden area. Plenty of apple and fig trees. Artichokes, salad green and herbs. There's a chicken coop. And they're very robust. LOL We enjoyed some tiki drinks at Nui Nui's. I initially booked this property because they had a huge saltwater pool & the tiki bar in another building. We didn't have the energy to dip in the pool. The pool is also for the community as well. There are lockers, showers and changing rooms. Since we didn't utilize the pool- the theater made our reservation worth it! Also, since our reservation downgraded from a premium to standard king room- Jesse put the difference back to the card on file. Looking forward to another Mc Menamin's visit when we're in the PNW. They also have their own beers and coffees! read more

Fun place to go with many different settings and ambiances. Each area differs and there is an outdoor fire pit area as well. Tiki bar area was cool and well decorated. They had an assortment of beers and different types of entrees from steaks to salmon. Service was great, we had a server named James and he was very attentive and his memory was great as to who ordered what in our group of 8. read more

McMenamins Anderson School - Cheese burger and house salad - Hotels Near Me - Bothell, Washington

I understand that this hotel is supposed to be different, and historically significant. A co-worker was here as well as two or three others, all at the same time. The front staff was nice. No complaints. The hotel is not really great for the a business traveler like me who needs the amenities that you'd find in all the usual places. No bottle of water in the room, no hot water pot for tea or anything. I stayed here for 4 nights and probably should have read the description better. Certainly not very amenable to roll your luggage around. They were kind enough to dig out of the lost-found a Lightning usb charger (which I returned). Maybe there was a store nearby, but I worked all day and barely had time to eat. There is a teeny store, but it's mostly for souvenirs. They put out a pot of coffee and (I think hot water for tea) cream, but on an empty stomach at 5am before going to work, I would have loved an apple or something. The room and halls and everywhere were very much on the "mood" setting, e.g., dark but full of paintings of friends or something everywhere. Kinda like someone's pet project. This review has nothing to do with the micro-brews, food, Nui Nui lounge, pool, Tavern, Woodshop, or breakfasts. Those aspects make it worth it, but missed having water in my room to drink....not out of the tap. Can't say I'm a fan, except for dining. read more

McMenamins Anderson School - Salmon Northwest scramble w potatoes substituted for fruit - Hotels Near Me - Bothell, Washington

Love, line this experience! We spent one night so had a great time and got to enjoy all the amenities as we were stamping our McMenamin's Passport. For starters we got room 302 with three windows and on the end of the hall.... great big room... it was beautiful! We swam in the pool (ask for robes at the front desk) and you walk across the parking lot to the lagoon pool. We saw a movie and ate dinner in their renovated theatre. The seats are rocking theatre style. If you get there early you can sit with the small tables in front of you so order at the bar and you get it delivered to your seat. Coffee bar in the morning was on the 3rd floor. Overall, the staff was great, hotel, restaurant, pool, movie theater were all wonderful! read more

I have given this location multiple chances to do better, and though the ambience is fantastic, the food is disgusting and poor quality. I've been served cold fries on two occasions, with the only explanation being that sometimes they let them sit under the heat lamps for a while. McMenamins in general really needs to get their act together - see my review of Mill Creek McMenamins and the worm I found in my fish and chips last week. I do not trust the food at McMenamin's and people need to know. I wrote to customer support, who offered a gift card for my trouble. No thank you. How about attending to your food quality, McMenamins? read more

Staying at The Anderson School Hotel was a bucket list experience--charming, slightly eerie in the best way, and full of character. Located in a beautiful and safe area of Bothell, this historic property is a former elementary school turned into a boutique hotel and it delivers a one-of-a-kind atmosphere. The check-in process was smooth and welcoming. The front desk staff were courteous and helpful, and the lobby had a cozy Pacific Northwest feel. The scent of the nearby Fleetwood fireplace added a warm woodsy aroma that made a great first impression. Our room was in a separate building that still retains the essence of an old school with long hallways, classroom-style doors, vintage lighting, and photos of former students and staff lining the walls. The rooms themselves feel like a step back into the 1920s, complete with chandeliers, antique-style decor, and unique touches. Ours was likely a converted office and the bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was clean and spacious with a walk-in shower and ample counter space. While there isn't a free continental breakfast, there are great on-site amenities, and breakfast is available for purchase. It's also worth noting that the room rates are higher than a standard chain hotel (ours was $244 per night), but it's well worth it for the experience. Think of it as part historic tour, part hotel stay with just a hint of "The Shining" vibe that adds to the fun, not fear. Highly recommend if you're looking to stay somewhere north of Seattle that's anything but ordinary. read more

We had so much fun. Plan on going back and staying at the hotel, so we can enjoy it more. The bars and restaurants are fixed up up in so many cool and funky decor that you enjoy sitting and having food or drinks in each area. That is why it is best to spend the night. Had a lot of fun in the principal's office. Not large because it has a bar in there, but room to enjoy a drink and eat, and talk to others people there about time sent in the principals office. We had two meals one in the tavern on the square and a snack in the principals office. All delicious. Plus a nice swimming pool ( use to be the HS pool. We want to go back and stay so we can go to the movie theater there. Just plan a day to relax and enjoy it all. read more

We went to McMenamins for brunch and had a lovely time! The food was delicious and the portions were generous. My daughter ordered the blackened salmon Caesar salad--it was a huge serving and she had leftovers. She said the salmon was perfectly cooked and full of flavor! My boyfriend had the shrimp and grits with a side of cottage potatoes. He loved it--said the dish was super flavorful and satisfying. I had the huevos rancheros, and it was bomb! Every bite was packed with flavor. My only suggestion would be to add some tortilla chips on the side--it would be perfect for scooping up all the tasty bits that fall off the tostada. read more

This place is great for a quiet dinner with your spouse or family or appetizers with a bunch of coworkers. I love that you can sit outside with gas heaters and enjoy a tasty dinner with your dogs as well. The fires that they usually have going are cozy and sometimes they have live music outside as well. The food is pretty tasty although a bit expensive, especially when the whole family eats there. The ruby red ale beer is the best ever, and the Cajun tots are definitely our favorite. It is also nice that they have a free room that you can rent months ahead of time for private events. You can also watch movies here and eat delicious burgers while doing so which is fun. read more

The pool is nice and all but the manager by the name of Jennifer isn't a people person! I've never have a problem coming to this pool but today she told me 1st that we couldn't check in for the pool off the hour mark. We could only check in 30 or 45 before the hour mark. She basically said we could swim for 45 and pay for the hour. I had a $100 bill and I know she saw it and so we came back 15 before the hour and now she tells me on the property they don't accept $100 bills. I was livid. I know she saw the bill in my hand. She was unhelpful and gave me zero options and her customer service was terrible! No options no help no service!!!! I'd give her-zero stars!!!! read more

I've been to quite a few McMenamins bars and restaurants over the years, but this was my first time staying in one of their hotel rooms. We stayed one night at the Anderson School in Bothell, Washington. It's a converted junior high school and it definitely has those retro school vibes, which is fun. The hallways are filled with interesting signs and displays about the school and local Bothell history. The grounds are nicely landscaped, and there are a multitude of eateries and bars onsite and nearby. We ate at the Nui Nui bar and restaurant onsite, a great choice. It has Balinese decor and tasty food (I got the vegan Jamaican Rice Bowl which was both sweet and savory and I'd definitely recommend it). The Nui Nui is perched above the hotel's indoor pool, an Olympic-sized pool (which is rare for the area) and has big windows overlooking the pool, adding to the tropical vibes. The other big bar/restaurant onsite is the Tavern on the Square, which is pricier. Next to it is the Woodshed, which has pool tables and shuffleboard as well. Smaller bars include The Shed (outside) and the tiny Principal's Office (inside). There's also a movie theater onsite (extra, not free for hotel guests) and a small gift shop with cute home decor items, McMenamins-branded clothing, and beverages. The reason for the 3 stars instead of 4 or 5 was that the hotel room was grossly overpriced for what it was. We paid $360 for one night. Granted, it was a Saturday night during the Christmas holiday period, and there were tons of people around at all the bars for Christmas parties and get-togethers, so that might be why the price was so high. But it was really not justifiable. The room was dark and a little creepy. The heating didn't seem to work properly, so the room stayed quite cold in spite of our best efforts to get it warmer. (When we arrived, the room was 64 degrees and chilly. We had to set it to 76 just to get it up to about 71, where it seemed to top out, and even then it took a few hours to warm up to that.) The curtains didn't pull fully open either, so the room stayed very dark and unpleasant. Maybe we'd have had a better experience if we were staying on a higher floor with brighter light coming in from the windows, not the bottom/basement floor, and maybe not in winter either. But for the price we paid, we just expected more. Hotel guests don't even get any perks at the onsite restaurants or bars -- no discounts at all. In the morning, no breakfast -- just free coffee and tea outside the Principal's Office upstairs. Just seems like a raw deal for $360 a night. Much better to stay at one of the area chain hotels and visit the McMenamin's properties for a meal or drink instead. read more

Yeah this place is good, it's Mcmenamins! This location is similar to their other large locations (edgefield being one of them) where there's a ton going on, multiple kitchens, multiple places to eat, chill, drink, vibe etc. they land on every need met. From breakfast, to desert to a late night drink by the pool table, the expectation and standard of the Mcmenamins is delivered. read more

We stayed here during a company onsite meeting. This is a FANTASTIC and very interesting one of a kind hotel converted from a school, so it has all the quintessential layouts and decorations of a high school back in the 1930s. You can get some brochures from the front desk to learn more its history. It said classes were held in the building as late as until 2009! The room itself has high ceiling/windows, feels spacious and has a good vibe of being nostalgic with modern day convenience. Rooms are named after notable figures in the community and decorated with original art and portraits. They have multiple breweries and restaurants on the spot. The service was great and you feel warm welcome by the staff here. They also set up a coffee stand in front of the old Principal's office lol. A very nice touch! read more

My boyfriend and I are huge fans of the McMenamins' properties, and we recently celebrated our birthdays at the Anderson School with an overnight stay and exploration of the property. We weren't sure what to expect because the location looked rather small in comparison to the Elks Temple and Edgefield, but we were pleasantly surprised and had just enough to do for 24 hours! The parking is limited, so take that into consideration. We had to park a little ways out from the front door, but it was overall fine. Staff was friendly and we checked to see if our room was ready 30 minutes early and it was! We got one of the standard king rooms and it was great. We preferred this room over the room we had at Edgefield. It was a little bit more updated, still plenty spacious, and the biggest bonus was having an en suite bathroom. IYKYK that it's common for some of their properties to have communal bathrooms, so having our own was a treaaat. There was also a TV, which also isn't common at all locations. We loved every single spot we visited. Our favorites were probably The Principal's Office and The Whiskey Shed. We love all of the quirky, small bars and both of those hit the mark. We visited the Principal's Office twice, even. The restaurants were great too and all of our meals were good. I think my only "complaint" was that it would be nice for there to be a hot tub too as the pool is mostly geared towards families (which is fine) but not as relaxing as other locations. This was such a fun staycation and I'm sure we will definitely be back for future occasions! read more

Great place got there around noon. Had a drink at the tiki bar, ps if you wanna walk around with your drink do not get it at the tiki bar. You would have to finish it there. Because of the road that divides the main property with that bar. There was live music going on, on the main side. Outdoor indoor seating is available. And dogs are always welcome as all of their properties Offer that. Food was good. We got our stamps. And won a t shirt. All in all was a good experience. read more

We went to the Woodshed on a busy Saturday night. We waited about 15 minutes to be seated and about the same to see our waiter. Ordering was quick and easy.

I enjoyed the blackberry cider as well. Always fun visiting McMenamins! read more

We rented an event room and paid for catering which included a coffee and tea service as well as juice and soda. As planned, we arrived early to set up some personal touches to the room. And the room was freezing cold. You could literally see your breath in the air We were quickly introduced to the person that was in training and told they would be our main point of contact but that they would be supported in the process. Being an actual event, I would hope that a person in training would be 100% supported the entire time so that your event can go down smoothly without the people paying for it having to pay attention that everything that was supposed to happen was in fact happening . They forgot about the coffee and tea service so we had to ask for it. Then later we had to ask for it to be refreshed They had no way of communicating to the people attending that the juice and soda was available. And they didn't communicate this until about halfway through the event. you had to literally leave the event room and walk down the hall to another room. So no one really took advantage of that because they'd have to leave the event. So we paid for juice and soda that we didn't use . And in that room where people would get juice and soda, you would have to wait in line with people that were attending other events since it wasn't just dedicated to our event. This just seems strange and made you feel very disconnected from the event. Plus the line was really long (and again, not with people from our event). The food was amazing. Far better than most catered events . There was maybe seven tall tables that you would stand at to eat and mingle and those were set up nice . But the only chairs available were literally lined up against two walls which makes it really hard to visit and mingle. Even though it was a limited amount of space, I'm sure they could've figured out a couple of creative ways to set those chairs up differently Again, the stuff was nice and happy to accommodate all of our questions and request but should have been more proactive in addressing things rather than us having to pay attention and ask . I personally would not host another event there when I think there are plenty other venues that provide a better experience . read more

Tavern on the Square - Service was VERY slow at the bar. Three bartenders were on duty, but evidently it wasn't enough. Poured beers were rushed with 10 oz of beer in a 16 oz glass, and 4 oz of foam. They were not very friendly or personable. Disappointing... read more

Can't say enough about this place and this company! The detail that went into the decor aesthetic, the time and money to restore the school to a hotel and restaurant. Epic and such a cool vibe.

Waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive at the Woodshop, then my crispy chicken arrived raw...will not be returning.

Held a work conference here in June. Shoutout to Jennifer Waters for all of the coordination of our event along with the amazing guy who was our server during the event. Also, the server for the event told me in private that our group was the kindest one he's ever worked with there. Thank you for your feedback, really appreciate it. We had their Sunrise breakfast and the Northshore luau buffet for lunch. The food was fantastic. The conference room had an outdoor patio which we used as well to eat and socialize. Why is this 4 stars and not 5? Because parking here is still a super pain, none of the food items had a label so some people were hesitant to try them and kept asking me and the server what things were and what the ingredients were, and the room was cramped. Needed a much bigger room than what we were given. The soda was served in pitchers and I kept being asked what they were as well. read more

Visited while in Seattle from a recommendation. Do not let the name deter you. A school turned into a hotel that has restaurants in the same area (walk from hotel).

If good weather there is a very nice outside area with wood fire pits for talking and drinks or just being social. read more

Another genius McMenamins experience. We loved our two-night stay for these valid reasons: --comfortable room with black out curtains for a deep sleep --lush towels --comfortable bed --beautiful grounds --thoughtful service--the bar tender in The Tavern was pitch perfect. I now identify as a cognac drinker because of this wonderful barkeep. --fire pits and fireplaces at every turn...with beautiful, dry fire wood. The air is scented with campfire smoke. It's not too much, and I loved the campsite / cognac combination. --great food beyond the typical pub offerings. The Brussels and Cauliflower dish is my new favorite McMenamins to-go menu item. --imagination and sheer clever design and implementation of visual delights that invite my relaxation, conversations, celebrations and well-being. Truly, Thank you McMenamins founders, employees and visionaries. Our stay was part of our UW graduation celebration with a beloved cohort. From the 21 year old wait staffer who had never served a Spanish Coffee to that bartender who graduated in kinesiology but fell in love with mixology to the coffee barista who graced us with a latte misstep instead of throwing it away, we had the kind of experience that I imagine the owners and employees work toward. How could I not applaud this Smokey, grand NW icon? Five beautiful stars to you, Rock Stars! read more
