The desk staff and valet staff were very helpful. The creepy employee who shadowed me - repeatedly talking about the glory of their filtered water - and followed us upstairs was unsettling. The room was LOUD. The "amazing" water filter (did you know they have filtered water? Here, have some. Want some more? It's filtered!) clanked all night long and loud sounds came from the bedroom wall all night. All. Damn. Night. There is no way they were unaware of this and nobody should be given a room that offers absolutely no chance of sleep. Customer service ignores you if you prefer to communicate via email. But they have filtered water! There are many better and less expensive options. They might not have a Water Man (it's filtered!) but at least you'll get some sleep.

Stayed here for 4 nights. Biggest complaint is being assigned a room that oversees the arena. This was not mentioned to me until I discovered the hockey game I could hear well on the 9th floor. I didn't know this was going to be happening, but luckily only for one night, keep that in mind. Front desk workers and cleaning staff were kind to help with any concerns and were communicative. Besides the hockey game noise, great hotel, wonderful staff, and perfect downtown location.

Proof I never stayed there in 2025

Lindsey was helpful and after I was able to provide all my documentation to get this issue resolved. I am grateful for her assistance and understanding as well as her good customer service.

I absolutely love everything about this hotel except their bath towels. All the small and medium towels are fluffy and nice, but the big towels are thin, old and feel like sandpaper on your skin.

Next to the Boise center. It's located at Front street and Capitol street. A small little waterfall at the front entrance and drive way. Sheltered covering at the front as well. The lobby as a large bar and two sides of it as well as lounge seating. The interior is nice, the big globe lights are fun. Trillium restaurant is right at the front and to the right side. Near a small park off of 9th street and a light show on one of the adjacent buildings.

I came to Boise on a whim. I was going to take a road trip, but everywhere near me was going to rain all weekend, so I hopped on a plane and came up here. I booked the Grove Hotel from reviews. The hotel is a 4-star hotel on Capitol Ave, and it's close to everything. There were complimentary beach cruiser bikes you could take out on the Greenbelt, and this is how I spent the whole first day with a friend. What a gorgeous city! It's also close to a lot of great restaurants. There are some local favorites I tried out, like Fork, where I strongly recommend the asparagus fries :-) The Restaurant, Trillium, is better than most that you find attached to a hotel. The spa was wonderful, I had one of the best massages I've ever had from Christopher. (I've had a lot of massage!) the staff was extraordinarily friendly, and very helpful. Responsive. The gym is extensive. A full gym, not a fitness room. The room was clean and spacious, the bed very comfortable. There were a lot of easily accessible places to plug-in in the room, which I really appreciate. I can't give this hotel five stars for two reasons. The main one is that I took a dip in the hot tub. After I got in, I realized there was a layer of grime around the edges, which apparently had been there long enough that people had scratched their names into the grime. It was truly disgusting. I reported it to the front desk, I hope they took care of it because I couldn't bear to go back and look. The second was a minor thing, but very annoying. I love that this hotel, like many, has given up that ecological nightmare, tiny shampoo and conditioner bottles. Bravo! Unfortunately, the dispensers that they do have don't work well at all. The first time I got in the shower, I pushed on them and pushed on them, and nothing came out. I assumed they were empty. When I called down to the front desk, they did immediately respond by bringing me refills for all three containers, and that was when I realized that they had already been full. They just don't work well at all. Even when I figured out how to make them work, it didn't always happen. I couldn't always get product out of the dispenser. No one wants to be in a shower and unable to get soap or shampoo out of a dispenser. I'm sure it would be expensive to replace them all, but I think the hotel should consider it. Despite the two problems I faced, I really loved this hotel. It's got a great bar, good food, friendly staff. It's also attached to the Idaho Central Arena, so I went to a hockey game for the first time in 30 years. Fun! I will be back.

Finally a good hotel experience…read more Great location. Very nice hotel room with a nice view of the main drag. My room was cleaned both days with no fuss or 6 year old pandemic protocol being cited to not clean the room. And they even have free snacks and sodas downstairs for guests. Oh and there's a shuttle from the airport. Great hotel.

Wow, what a phenomenal little place to stay! I was more than impressed with my stay at this…read moreadorable and artsy little boutique hotel during a recent work trip to Boise. I was in town to assist our new Community Ambassador at her debut Yelp Elite Event, and wanted to get a feel for the city. The Inn at 500 was the perfect choice, as it's right downtown and in the heart of the action - not to mention, walking distance to some great little shops, coffee shops, and even Trader Joe's. I arrived via Uber and was immediately impressed by their bright, colorful lobby. This hotel is known for amazing light fixtures and lots of whimsical art - and they didn't disappoint. Everywhere I looked, there was something beautiful to see. I was warmly greeted at the front desk, including a complimentary beer (or wine) as I checked in! There are also unlimited snacks, bottled water, and a few other refreshments available during your entire stay. I may or may not have grabbed a bag of Frito's and a granola bar to take to my room for late night snacking. My room was fresh and clean, with an eclectic Shakespearean-style nook above the king bed. The entire space was lovely, including a nice work area and plenty of places to plug in and charge up. There was even a fireplace, although the weather was too warm to actually use it. Before heading out to our event at a local brewery, I even got to enjoy a terrific happy hour in their on-site restaurant, Hemlock. And in the morning, I ordered a delish room service breakfast before catching my flight back to Seattle. This was a great experience and I can't wait to go back during my next trip to Boise!

To top it off, the lady working the front desk late Thursday night was super super nice. Great first impression of Boise based on that alone!

The hotel is an updated motel with modern furnishings and fully remodeled bathrooms. Very clean but…read morethere was some lingering mustiness from smokers if that's something you're particularly sensitive to. Dog friendly. Free easy parking. Free breakfast but offerings limited to yogurt or eggs. Very noisy A/C unit. The toilet is directly next to the frosted glass bathroom door, which is fine for couples but worth taking into consideration who you're traveling with! Issue we had was we had picked up some favorite vegan food from a local restaurant to enjoy on the patio since we've really enjoyed the communal patios at other updated motels. We check-in and are invited to the happy hour. Awesome! We hope to order a beer and enjoy our food when a woman comes over and says that the health department will not allow us to eat our own food on our own plates and cutlery on the patio and that they would be shut down if they allowed it. When we ask where we could eat, she directs us to the street or our room. Our room only had a single chair and a thin rail, no proper dining setup. The patio was empty save for 2 tables but they couldn't stand to share the patio with hotel guests. The place was otherwise nice but the treatment soured our experience. I strongly suspect the health department would take no issue with our enjoyment of the patio.

We got a double queen room on the ground floor, facing the pool and it was great! My kids were able to walk right out into the courtyard and play giant chess and giant checkers. We also spent as much time as possible at the indoor pool. My kids LOVED the whirlpool and splash pad features. There was hardly anyone else there so it felt like we had the whole pool to ourselves. The staff was so great with my kids. We got warm chocolate chip cookies at check in, and the servers at breakfast were great about getting us situated with drinks, and our made to order omelets were delicious! I have never experienced a hotel breakfast buffet that was as extensive as The Riverside's! 10+ stars for their breakfast buffet alone. At one point during our stay, we were walking back to our room and noticed some broken glass at the bottom of a staircase. I called the front desk and immediately they had someone out there cleaning up the glass. I would highly recommend The Riverside to anyone looking for a staycation hotel, or if you have guests coming in from out of town. We will definitely be back!
