I don't like leaving negative reviews but do not stay at this hotel. There was mold in the shower, water stains on the ceiling, stains on the sheets, grime in the shower, stains on the toilet seat and dirty floor grout. I've placed pictures below to support all of this. I felt so icky staying here. It was only for a night so I sucked it up but I can't believe I stayed here. read more

Stayed at Hotel 43 recently to attend a wedding in nearby Nampa. It has been recently remodeled and was very nice. The rooms were clean and comfortable with fridge, coffee maker, safe and nice robes. Parking is right off the lobby in the garage next door. Staff as very helpful especially when we had to call the front desk to complain about a barking dog around 11:00pm in the room next door. They sent someone up immediately and spoke to the occupants. Didn't hear the dog again that night and slept well. High end steakhouse is within the building. The location is perfect for downtown Boise. We will be returning when we visit Boise again. read more

Best in Boise?? Maybe. The room was excellent except no water bottles. The furnace is so loud I was awakened each time it engaged. Staff was efficient and helpful. read more

Awful!!! I rented this for three nights and the entire hotel is under construction. I don't mind the lobby construction that's easy to walk around. HOWEVER I am on the 3rd floor and the 4th floor is also being completed remodeled. I am awakened every morning EARLY to drills and loud construction. There was zero mention of this when I reserved a room. The rooms were also not cheap. Oh .... and a fire alarm was set off at 5:30am because of some construction and we all had to stand outside in 38 degrees. No acknowledgement of any kind - I mean how about a voucher for some free coffee or something. I don't need a free night but offer something as an apology for the inconvenience. read more

Stayed here for a 3 day 2 night stay over Labor Day weekend with my husband, in a single king bed room. Cost was $580 to book, however we booked with 47,000 Chase points through the Chase portal. Pros: - They usually offer a free airport shuttle, but because it wasn't running, they actually reimbursed the cost of the uber we took from the airport to the hotel! - GREAT location: we didn't come with a rental car and didn't need one - it was walking distance or to a bunch of food places and bars, including Pie Hole, Yoi Tomo AYCE sushi, Western Proper, Boise Fry company, the art museum, the Basque street, you name it. Pretty much prime downtown location close to everything, and only like a less than 15 min ride to the airport - Ask for free tickets to the Boise Art Museum! $6 value each haha - GREAT sun-blocking curtains if you want to sleep in - Amazing selection of TV channels - Pretty comfortable bed - The shower had the best water pressure I've experienced at a hotel so far - We didn't utilize this benefit but they have complimentary bikes to borrow - All the staff were very professional. Cons: - Thankfully I didn't pay the full price for this hotel - but based on the amenities, it feels like it should have been in the $400 range for a 2 night stay, not $500. I definitely would not have stayed here if I had to pay the full $580. - NO complimentary breakfast options, not even like a grab and go donut kind of thing. There is a convenient cafe downstairs but you do have to pay. - Our fridge seemed like it didn't have a good seal, and wasn't keeping our takeout leftovers very cold. - No microwave in room, kind of inconvenient if you want to heat up leftovers. - Kind of markets itself as a one of a kind luxury boutique hotel, but I would say it was more average and just gets the job done (not a bad thing, but a little on the pricier side). Overall, 10/10 would stay here again if booked with points and didn't have a rental car. It does give you the convenience of being close to literally everything if you're a fan of walking. Things that could make it better would be breakfast, better room amenities. Overall a solid 4 stars. read more

I'm not sure why this hotel is classified as a four star hotel - aside from being next door to Chandler's, it has none of the usual four star amenities on site. Aside from that, if you book an accessible two queen boutique, be prepared for a tiny room with nowhere to hang clothes, and no iron or ironing board to iron your wrinkled shirts that you can't hang up. Weekday-only dry cleaning is available, which does little good over the weekend when you can't iron or hang your pants or shirts. Also, if you are a little person or confined to a wheelchair, the parking garage entry/exit is absolutely inaccessible without assistance. The only reason I give two stars is because the hotel is very clean, the staff was very polite, and the location near city center was nice. read more

This place is far too loud to get any rest. The desk staff at night were eerie sketchy in a weird way. I suspect they serve as a no tell motel more than anything. Which I totally get, but it's not our idea of a relaxing environment. Several of the guests on our floor didn't seem to want to be seen based on their body language and evasive behavior. Room was clean, it was just too loud and close to the check in parking and the road. It's also too close to Chandler's where I avoid with a passion. Live and learn. read more

Nothing special about this hotel....pretty outdated. Rooms are not big considering it is in Boise. The wall is super thin so you will hear noises. read more

Wondering why they call it 43. This cute boutique hotel is pretty much in the heart of downtown. Easy to get to places. Plenty of restaurant and bars. I heard the bar in the hotel is actually a classy club too. The lobby is super nice. Layout is very balanced. Couches and tables and cool pendulum chandeliers. Elevators are right there by the lobby as well, so you dont have to go through a maze to look for it. The rooms are pretty good. The one I got wasnt the biggest, bit it was enough. Its complete with lights, night stands even a sit down chair is you're feeling like doing some reading. A TV on top of a dresser. Cool feature on the window is that you're able to open a vent so you can let some fresh boise air in. I love the stuffed bear toy on the bed. Gives it a really cute touch. If you wanna take it home, it's around $35. My stay here was definitely enjoyable. I would come back and stay here again. Thank you much for reading my review. I hope this helps with your decision making experience. Enjoy your awesome yelptastic day! read more

This hotel was the worst . It's under construction, tv didn't work, got upgraded to " suite" and tv still didn't work. Three times had to go back to front desk as the key card did not work. Mattress in "suite" felt like it was at least 20 years old, felt the springs on my back. Worst sleep ever in my 2 years of business travel. ThankGod they are updating as decor is atrocious . Staff friendly enough but I will never stay here again!! read more

I didn't know they don't clean the room unless you ask for it to be cleaned. Is that normal now?? So on my way out the door on my third day I asked for service. When I came back that evening, the door to the room was open ... the maid had left it propped open with the safety latch. It had been that way all day, with my suitcase, clothes and computer inside. I told the manager I thought it would be fair for that night to be comped as compensation. The manager said that since nothing was taken and it was an innocent mistake on the part of the maid, there would be no compensation. I think a hotel, especially one that markets itself as "luxury boutique," owes the guest safety and cleanliness at the very least in return for their nightly fee. The fact that nothing was taken certainly wasn't due to the precautions taken by the hotel, since no one caught the mistake all day. The icing on the cake: the sink in the tiniest bathroom known to mankind hadn't been cleaned -- it still had hair in it. When family comes to town, I'll be recommending The Grove. read more

My husband and I stayed two nights at Hotel 43. It was a great boutique hotel. We had an oversized room with a view of the capital and we're within walking distance to downtown shopping, restaurants, and Freak Alley. We also ate dinner at Chandlers, which was delicious! read more

disappointed in this hotel. came for a "stay-cation" with my hubby and when I booked this place I thought we were picking something special. it is a boutique hotel above the nicest restaurant in town (chandlers) so obviously it's going to be nice, right? um no. it's small, and you can tell it used to be yuck before they slapped some new paint on it and called it luxury. the staff were not friendly when we arrived (accept for the bell hop, he was friendly.) and they barely even looked up when we checked in. let me just say, if they try to give you room 208, 209, or 210- do not accept. we arrived in our TINY room (this is a king room?) to the lovely view of the AC units which are covered in weird paint and moss. i'm sure the hotel was not completely booked up (this is covid times) so these rooms should be a last resort situation for putting guests in when they are full. we booked this room A MONTH AGO. i'm not looking for the best room, but this was just weird to me. overall, our stay was disappointing. we should have just booked the grove. I think if you're traveling for work from the airport and want a centrally located place downtown with a good restaurant downstairs, this is the place for you. don't come here for romance. read more

We stayed 3 nights in this hotel. The property is located close to downtown shopping and restaurants! Staff was super courteous and cheerful. Checking in/out was a breeze! Parking was 15.00 per day, either valet or self parking in the structure. We chose to utilize the parking structure, which is directly next door with access into the hotel lobby. I did notice on Yelp, the hotel indicates free perks such as valet parking? I didn't see this until after our trip. The 4 stars was due to a couple issues with our room on our first night. There was a problem with the toilet and the HVAC system which was extremely noisy all night! I reported the issue to the hotel staff the next morning. The staff was very responsive and apologetic, we were immediately moved to a different room. read more

Booked a room for one night, paid almost $500 for no bathtub or balcony, underwhelming decor, no swimming pool, not even a complimentary breakfast. We were denied a refund or upgrade. Should've come with free dinner from Chandler's for such a high price- take your business elsewhere, folks! read more

On a last minute trip to Boise, on a birthday weekend, the Hotel 43 Staff made us feel extra special. My boyfriend and I went to Boise to visit family, and last minute ended up booking a Suite at Hotel 43. Regina, with housekeeping offered to help decorate it, but I didn't have time to arrange it. Still, when we got there, there was a robe and slippers to welcome us. Katie during the day, happily assisted us when we needed food recommendations for dinner. Then later that evening I still hadn't found a postcard I needed at nearby stores, when we got back to the hotel, Peter and David (I believe were their names), at the front desk and security, checked their items in the back and found me a Postcard to send out, along with some mints, pens, and a letter opener. Everyone was very friendly, so we felt very welcome. The balcony for our suite was a nice addition, the room was clean and in our room, the air was filtered "Pure Wellness". It was all so refreshing, especially in the middle of summer. I just wish we'd stayed one more night and had the chance to use the bikes they had available for a ride around Downtown Boise. It was in such a great location. We'll definitely stay here on our next trip back. read more

Wow. What a disappointment. It started before we even got there. We reserved a reservation 3 days prior to arrival and chose this hotel because it claimed to be "pet friendly". In the form we filled out, it asks what type of pet/breed. I noted 2 cats. On the day of our arrival, they call us and say that cats aren't welcome. Ok. We made other arrangements and didn't bring them. I mentioned to the gal that they should be more specific about the pet friendly claim because it's misleading. Apparently they don't like doing room cleaning service if you have an extended stay "due to covid" unless you specifically ask for it. No one at the front desk bothered to mention it. Apparently there was a note in our pile of papers so it was our mistake not to know. So the following day we remembered to ask for room service and we got it. Whoever did the cleaning seemed hurried and almost angry. The bed was made, but they left bed pillows on the floor in two places. And our towel rack was restocked with 2 more bath towels but they left the rack sloppy just like the pillows on the floor. Pics included. There is also " free breakfast" with your stay. Keep in mind that it's a granola bar, yogurt and an apple. They have have drop coffee downstairs but when we asked for some (mid morning) they said they NEEDED TO MAKE MORE! They crew only makes new coffee after they run out and someone asks! I shocked that the quality and lack of professionalism of service here. Details matter and apparently this management has no idea. The location is nice which is why we chose it but thank goodness there are other options for next time. read more

Was here for a quick work trip and the staff was friendly and very helpful. After flying back home, I realized I had accidentally thrown away important paperwork in my hotel room. I called the front desk and they were able to retrieve it and mailed it out to me. I am SO grateful!! Thank you!! read more

Not a good experience for our stay-cation. Finding the last guest's leftover Mexican food in the refrigerator didn't give me the feeling that the room had been thoroughly cleaned. The night receptionist couldn't find my keys at 4am when I had to leave, nor did she know where it was parked. She told me to walk into the parking garage. Made it up to the 4th floor of the garage, but no car. Called her back. She thought it might be in a lot "across the street", but couldn't tell me which street she was referring to. Called her again from the KIN lot across from the front door, so she met me outside. Suggested I try another lot around the block to the west. To say that I irritated with this 4am tour would be an epic understatement. For one night at $472, I think it's reasonable to expect cleanliness and better service. read more

From the van driver to the front desk staff to the rooms, everything was professionally executed. Everyone is very friendly and accommodating. The bears in the room add a cute touch to weary road warriors, I even bought one!! The bar is classy along with the restaurant. For those complaining about the price, I think the lights are on at Motel 6 for your penny pinching wallet. read more

It was a beautiful hotel but for being a 4-5 star hotel everything should be clean. The comforter was dirty and the door frame in the bathroom had a boogie and the toilet had a pubic hair.

Hotel 43 was top on our list for places to stay in Boise. It's location was the number one selling point. Located in downtown Boise, in the hub of shops, the capital building, college and yes the restaurants and beer flowed like...beer and restaurants do. They have a five star restaurant, Chandler's, on the main floor of the hotel. Best bed of the week, spacious room for her to get her grove on and bike from the room to the mountains for me. Almost didn't want to leave...but the road calls;) SPECIAL PERK was the covered parking. read more

Very nice receptionists. They are very attentive, polite and respectful. The rooms are very clean, big TV, fridge.

Only 4 reviews (now 5 with mine) for Hotel 43?!?! All you yelpers who travel to awesome Boise are really missing out. Okay, Hotel 43 is not on par with the fancy boutique hotels of NYC, LA, or SF, but it's Boise...c'mon..what do you expect? For Boise (no offense Boise), this hotel is quite awesome. The rooms are a good size and they give you nice little amenities, such as a piece of chocolate and a bottle of water when you check-in as well as a teddy bear on your bed....schweet! This place would totally be where Frank Sinatra stayed if this were the 1950s and in Las Vegas. Also, they have a cool little bar downstairs that was actually pretty crowded for a Tuesday night at 9:30pm...schweet again! I highly recommend Hotel 43...it's close to a lot of cool stores in downtown Boise and if you're just looking for a cool bar to hangout while your here for one night...it has that as well. The only downside is the gym is kinda small....but aren't most hotel gyms? read more

I stayed here on my visit to Boise. It was my first time in the area, so I called ahead to get advice from the hotel. From that call throughout my stay, the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The hotel is a little older than places I usually stay, but it was nice, clean, recently updated and had comfortable beds. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area. I want to make sure Lois is recognized for her great work and help! She took a considerable amount of time helping me understand the area. She even made me a map for when I arrived! Superb customer service read more

Paid almost $400 for one night stay. The front desk staff on arrival wasn't very friendly. The valet driver and the staff that assisted us with the complementary bikes were very nice. Unfortunately, for the price of the room, I was a bit disappointed. Our room looked out over a parking lot. Biggest perks of the stay were the complementary bikes and two free bottles of water. Room was clean; however, mediocre. Location is great. read more

Billed as a "boutique hotel" Hotel 43 left a lot to be desired during my recent stay. The pros? Free WiFi (slow but it's free), free pass to the Boise Art Museum, and the bed (very comfortable with lots of pillows and nice linens). It's also got a great location in the heart of downtown Boise and the staff is very nice given they were constantly apologizing for everything. The cons? i seriously kept looking to see if I was on a Candid Camera episode as everything was a joke. How about a call telling me in the morning that the hot water was going to be turned off for repairs, and the hotel hoping I had already taken my shower? Not funny, but true. But wait. There's more. Room service came with the wrong order including some foods that I am allergic to even after I explained it a couple of times. No coffee in the room (really? what hotel doesn't have coffee these days?) Tired bathrooms that looked like something out of 1980 with a separate area for the sink, no 24 hour room service, keys that don't work (I had them re done 3 times) and the worst thing? They "forgot" to clean my room and leave clean towels. How can all of this happen in a span of 24 hours? I get that I was only paying $89 a night which is a steal. But when the hassles outweigh the benefits, you can bet I am staying somewhere else the next time I am in town. Cold shower, anyone? read more

i stayed at Hotel 43 when i was here for a business trip. This is a pretty good place to stay in the heart of downtown Bosie, ID! it is close to the airport (about 5 min drive). The hotel is pretty cute like a boutique. Right when we got there -- valet boy came out to help us with our luggage and parked our car. We went in to check in at the front desk. Jeffrey the hotel manager was really helpful. He gave us a bottle of water. He made sure that we were taken care of during our stay. When i got to my room -- the right thing i see was a teddy bear sitting on the bed surrounded by pillows. i was tempted to take the bear home with me but then i saw the price -- $29.99! uhh the teddy bear wasn't THAT cute anymore! haha They also have a lounge/bar area connected to the hotel and right next door is the restaurant Chandler's. The hotel provides Free wireless internet connection which is a HUGE PLUS!. however, i was having some trouble logging in to the wireless. =/ i had to call their IT to help me configure the problem. it was pretty slow than before. good thing i didn't really need to use the internet that much that night. i ordered room service for breakfast! my first time ordering room service!! teehehe so the night before i checked off what i wanted in the morning and hang it on the door knob. i put down 'please deliver by 7:30AM" and it came at 7:40AM... and i had to leave and check out by 8AM so i can make it to my meeting! uhh.. pretty late. =/ Other than that, my stay here was pretty good and i will definitely come back the next time i am in Boisie! read more

Just checked into Hotel 43 today. Great experience so far. I love the little details of this hotel- from the easy check in process, welcoming Bear on my bed to the special makeup remover washcloth..

Avoid this hotel. Please note that I actually wrote the manager and gave my email and phone number over a week ago. I even told them if they don't at least call me to discuss this horrific 3 night stay that I would share this pathetic experience via social media. So here we are. We booked the biggest suite on Hotel 43 web site for 4 days. It says the suite sleeps three. Upon arrival we were informed that's a mistake that they should really change. So...three adults one bed. We were told to take an additional room. I said sure but you pay for it because this is your false advertisement that caused the problem. Now all of a sudden they get an idea. Their sister hotel across town has air mattresses. So 45 min later (its 10:30pm) a air mattress arrives. No sheets or pillows. We ask for a bed sheet set and 2 pillows. They bring a single sheet. Nothing else. Now its 11pm. Call again and ask for a full set of sheets and a pillow. Sheets arrive...no pillow. Its odd....the sheets are actually wet. They smell terribly. Call back to the front desk. Finally a full set of dry sheets and a pillow (mind you no pillow case). We blow up the mattress and go to sleep, its midnight. At 1am I awake to a flat mattress and I'm sleeping on the floor. I call the front desk. They laugh. Said they cant get another mattress I can pay for another room. I sleep on the floor because the couch is nice but to tiny to sleep on. Next morning I explain to the new person at the front desk my dilemma. They apologize for the "web site lying that it sleeps 3, I tell my boss to change it all the time". I explain we have 2 more nights here...they said they would see what they can do. Nothing was done. I slept on the floor and sitting upright on the couch for 2 more nights. What they did do is cancel our electronic keys a few times and laugh when we had to come to the desk to get new ones. This had now become just rude beyond belief. Upon check out our Bill for room alone was over $1000 for three nights (which was the agreed to price for a suite that sleeps 3). So...I waited for the email to come to ask about our stay. I shared this and gave all my contact info. The point is....sometimes things happen. Sometimes the staff is having a rough time. But never is it okay if a manager is reading their feedback and they learn of such a bad stay in your best room and they dont even bother to contact the person who had 4 days from hell in their establishment. SLEEP IN YOUR CAR BEFORE EVEN CONSIDERING STAYING AT HOTEL 43! read more

Hotel 43 left a great impression. Upon entering your room, you're greeted with a stuffed teddy bear, chocolates, and a welcome note. That alone separated Hotel 43 from other hotels I've stayed at. (Hotels in Vegas don't even do that.) Their bathrooms are super accommodating too and they have a great facial moisturizing bar that I shamelessly packed home. Their TV is AWESOME. I think it's like a 45 inch? And super hi def with a variety of channels. Not to mention that this hotel is downtown and close to everything. I only stayed in Boise for a night but it was extremely enjoyable. I wish they offered two robes though. read more

This hotel may have been great at one time, but NO LONGER. The service was terrible. First day, didn't clean our room. Told us we had to ask for the maid service. Did not tell us this at check in... Second day, no maid service. First maid said she thought the other maid cleaned the room. Manager said the maid cleaned the room across the hall by mistake. Third day, maid finally cleaned the room. Forgot the shower.... Had to ask for more shampoo and soap. Needed WiFi password. It's on the folder with the key entry card. Didn't tell us that at check in. The room itself has seen better days. Furniture was worn and not up to snuff considering the price. Two stars for the location. 0 stars for staff excuses and attitude. read more
