I stayed here 1/14 to 1/16, on the 6th floor. The room was great, clean, very comfortable, great views, staff was friendly and inviting, we arrived late about midnight and no issues with checking in. AC & heating worked great, and that is important to us. It is a great location for night life entertainment or just staying in. I highly recommend. read more

Very comfortable hotel. Nice appointments. All the drinks machines on all the floors were not operating. Don't know what's up with that. And it was a bit of a nuisance to get drinks or snacks from the downstairs Pantry area. It was locked and the front desk people had to unlock it and fetch your items. I suggested they provide some courtesy items to minimize this inconvenience. Great location for downtown shopping and eating. read more

We stayed here on our honeymoon trip! The front desk was incredibly kind and upgraded our room when I mentioned that we were on our honeymoon! Great clean place to lay our head for the night. They are also dog friendly! We are really glad that out of all the hotels in Boise, we picked this one! Highly recommend you check this place out if you're in Boise!! read more

Quickly becoming one of my favorites in Boise, Hotel 43 offers a welcome feel, along with a luxurious vibe. From the moment I entered the clean and stylish lobby for my Friday night reprieve, I felt genuinely welcomed and immediately comfortable. After a full night of fun, when I finally made it to the King boutique suite that they'd set, I was pleasantly surprised at the attention to detail, and small, yet substantial welcome gifts that the personable guest-service team had left for my arrival. I tell you, it's all in the details, people! ..and these guys are on point.. As Justin valet'd Jamison (my ...one~of~a~kind.. 4 door which a dear friend lovingly named for me), Robin set the stage with a bright smile and professional welcome. Ryan reinforced the feeling as he made sure that there wasn't anything else that they could provide for my stay, and Amy whipped through my check-in process with grace. It's not always easy to get just what you need, in good time and without a bunch of extra hassle, but this pro trio made the process so natural and enjoyable that I felt right at home. I was up to the room in no time and primed for a great night's sleep. Plenty of pillows, shades that could block out an Armageddon, and the jazz music channel on my rooms' 50' tv made for just the right amount of unwinding comfort as I settled in after a fun night in downtown Boise. Would recommend for all seasoned travelers, professional and pleasure~seekers alike. Stay Grateful and Dine Well. Your friend in hospitality, Thaddeas read more

Amazing beds. Amazing staff. Great price. Tucker, the shuttle driver, was so awesome! I would definitely stay there again. read more

This place was OK nothing special but I'm a little irritated that I stayed one night and they charge me for two nights of valet parking. If you think about it if they did that to 40 people every night 30 days out of the month they can make a lot of extra money read more

I cannot say enough great things about this hotel! Hubby and me stay here several times a year for staycations and we have never been disappointed. Fabulous service, very clean rooms, great views, and easy walk to everything in downtown Boise. We have stayed in every type from a Standard to Grand Suite and they're all fabulous rooms. We prefer Hotel 43 to their sister hotel just down the street. Highly recommend! read more

Very comfy beds and super friendly staff. They give you a bunch of different types of pillows so you can be sure you have one you like, that was a great touch! read more

Hotel 43 is my favorite hotel in all of Boise. They have nice, clean rooms. Great beds, which is important to me. Nice bathrooms. Mostly though, the hotels front desk staff is the best in all of Boise!! Ashley who's now manager is great!! Katie, Taylor, Hunter are all the best front staff the hotel could ever have!! Chandlers Steak and Martini Restaurant is also an AMAZING place to go and have a 1 class meal. It's won the DiRona award for best restaurant which no other Boise restaurant can't acclaim too. Put the two together and you have an amazing weekend get away or just a great addition to your visit to Boise and Idaho!! read more

We have stayed at Hotel 43 several times and have always been pleased with our experience. The Hotel is currently under renovations and so everything is being updated and getting a new modern look. Some of the pros include underground parking for guests, a small but nice workout area, soft beds, clean rooms, great downtown location, friendly staff, and a steak house with live music some nights and Starbucks in house. Some of the draw backs are that you have to pay for parking, only the suits have bath tubs (the rest have spacious showers), and the TV's don't have an HDMI port, and No continental Breakfast, and if you want to take home one of those adorable bears in a Hotel 43 bath robe, you are going to have to pay ($30). The first time we stayed there we had a suite which included bath robes and a giant jetted tub in the middle of the room. It was awesome. The second time we stayed we got a standard room with a King and no bath tub...super sad. I have a night time bath ritual that I was unable to complete, though to fair, the showers are very nice and easily big enough for two *wink wink* Overall a good choice for a downtown hotel. read more

I really, really, REALLY want to say such good things about this place, but yes. I have experienced better. My boyfriend and I travel a lot, and we tend to stay in many different hotels, so my tastes really run across the board. The good news is, the place is adorable. It has a cool vibe to it, although they seem to be trying to be something they can never be: Swanky. Pros: The bed was AMAZING. I loved it. Super comfortable, great selection of pillows and the blanket was super inviting. ...um, cute lamps? Although way too dark for doing any actual work. Free wi-fi. Cons: Parking was 10 dollars a night (seriously??!!) The view from the 3rd floor was great, if I was interested in seeing what was on top of the restaurants rooftop. And that was about all we got to see. Room service was odd, as you can choose to have a delivery time, and even those were limited. The place was cramped. The bathroom was tiny. The vanity area was even smaller. Again, the decor was beautiful, but useless. No fridge. The robe they leave in the bathroom for you to use was rough and scratchy. The Keurig coffeemaker was great, but not enough cream or sugar or variety of flavors, so we didn't bother using it. Anyway, good location, but would most likely spend the same amount of money and find a better place to stay next time. "A" for effort. read more

This hotel is great. Stayed here for one night and enjoyed my stay. The bathrooms are upgraded and new. No tubs only stand up showers which I love. Huge TVS and comfy beds. About 6 pillows per bed which was super awesome. They provide 1 liter bottle of smart water for $4 which is super convenient and inexpensive. Mind you,Airport bottles waters are the same price but way smaller. Nice decor and chic. Would definitely stay here again. Will probably try chandlers own of these days. Also thy serve breakfast but only a few items but are good enough. read more

Hotel staff were quite friendly. Rooms were clean and there was a teddy-bear sitting on the bed. Was on the 4th floor so the view was nice as well. The room were quite enough but I did notice an opening under the door, which was perhaps a little larger than I expected. Also, not that big of a deal, was that the curtains were a bit dated. The bed was super comfortable but the pillows were way too soft. Overall, given the location to everything, I would stay here again. P.S. Parking is $12 a day. read more

* Stayed here one night for work * Generally impressed with everything * Great customer service * Restaurant was very tasty, but a little steep price-wise...especially for Boise. * Minus 1 star because my hot water (both sink and tub) was neon yellow...didn't smell weird and still washed out my shampoo just fine, but kinda freaked me out read more

Just ok. Suite with 2 bathrooms but only one toilet worked. No water glasses in the room. Overpriced considering. I recommend The Grove over this hotel. read more

Love this place! We had stayed here many times before, but this last time was for my bday. I walked into the room and it was decorated for my bday! Room was incredible and service always great! Every time we are in town,this is the place to stay. read more

Could not have been more disappointed! We stayed here for three nights last week and it seemed like a complete let down. The website makes the property look nice and well equipped, but in reality the pictures are of the steakhouse and the "amenities" are extra or off site. Additionally, we paid for a nicer room but were told it wasn't available when we arrived- but our rate didn't change! The front desk staff was rude, short and uncaring. The nicest person was the airport shuttle driver (who was from The Grove Hotel- stay there instead!). Overall a waste of money and a disappointment. read more

Putting aside the comparisons to other cities the other reviewers demeaned necessary to include in their reviews and just focusing on the hotel review at hand, Hotel 43 has style, flare and personality but also lacks in a few amenities and does have some slightly 'not so great' aspects. When you cruise up to the hotel, you really don't know what to expect...but step inside and enter into the comforts of a highly-stylized atmosphere. This very modern slash late 1940's vibe, makes the guest feel comfy and welcomed. The front counter staff is extremely helpful, friendly and will be happy to answer your question about Boise. The thing I always find annoying (and yes, all city hotel's do this) is that you have to pay for parking and only $10 a day. Yes, I've paid more elsewhere, but I'm a guest at the hotel and shouldn't have to pay for parking, and that goes for all hotels everywhere. Besides that little parking soap box rant, Hotel 43 is in a great location so you can walk all around downtown and get to the highway very easily. The room I stayed in was a double queen and those beds were heavenly. The huge, numerous pillows; the big, fluffy comforter and topped with a robe wearing teddy (fyi the cute robed teddy is $30 so don't be trying to sneak it out the door). I really like that they give you an extra blanket, which is located in the closet, it's warm and handy. The room is well lit, has nice furniture, a flat screen HD TV, a super nice arm chair, and desk with chair. The wifi access is easy to log in to and has fast speeds. The bathroom is nice because the sink is separate from the toilet and shower, making it really easy for two people to get ready in the morning. Also, for your after-showering needs, they provide warm robes. The bath amenities were very nice, besides soaps, shampoo, conditioner, body butter, they also give you a sewing kit and other mini-amenity box-- cue tips, cotton ball, nail file and something I can't remember. Besides paying for parking, the few other slightly 'not so great aspects'-- I've really come accustomed to having a mini-coffee pot in my room so I can have tea or coffee. Hotel 43 doesn't provide this. Yes, you can call room service but I like having a tool to heat/brew water in my room. The other thing, in room water is $3.00 and high vending machine prices. Most hotels mark up food and beverage high, but I'm over this. So overall, Hotel 43 is a fun, relaxing, fab location, and an environmentally- and community-friendly place to spend the night. You won't be disappointed and will sleep well. read more

I've been a loyal customer to Hampton's Inn Downtown Boise for the past couple years So when they were booked and referred me to the Grove, which was also booked but referred me here to the Hotel 43, I was skeptical. It sounded like a third choice but the reviews weren't that bad. Upon arrival the girl behind the counter was highly professional. She was swamped with check ins. The lobby was completely filled. She called for more help and we were on our way. You will pay for parking here but it's pretty much standard for staying downtown. I see everyone complaining about it. If you want to be downtown, you will pay for parking. The bed is very comfortable. I woke up smelling everyone's room service from the restaurant downstairs. The price of breakfast is very reasonable too. Everyone complains in their reviews that the walls are thin and you hear everything. I only heard my neighbor in the bathroom while my fan was off. I can not rave enough about the restaurant attached to the hotel. It's hip and gorgeous and matches the hotel perfectly. They have a live jazz band every night which was amazing. My husband and I snuck down there every night. PROS *It's closer to dining than our previous place *Amazing jazz bar or steak house downstairs *Adorable bears on the bed. *cheaper rate than previous hotel CONS *The room we had (two queens) had no fridge *Smallest bathroom vanity ever *the bears on the bed creep me out. I don't know where they have been. Get rid of them *no continental breakfast but that makes up for the cheaper rate. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again. That's huge for me. Edited 4/14/2014 Stayed here's for they second time since daughter was having emergency surgery. Front desk was amazing. They had extra pillows for us and got us to our room extra fast. Housekeeping although friendly, could step it up a notch. I accidentally spilt wine on the bed and the next day it was still there after they spruced up the room. Another complaint, after ordering up (which we did a lot) room service was called to collect the extremely heavy tray and it wasn't collected. The smell made my daughter sick all night. Hotel 43 has me by the balls. I love having Chandlers to run to at night but the hotel needs to step up their game compared to last year. read more

Great decor, friendly helpful staff, and the rooms were very reasonably priced! The room itself was a 'standard boutique room', which had a king bed with amazingly soft sheets, down comforter (i think - it was warm and fluffy and awesome), a clean, tasteful bedspread (!) and an assortment of desk & lounge chair around the room edges. We holed up here happy and warm for the night, and didn't want to leave even for food. Anytime we're passing through the Boise area again, we're definitely staying at Hotel 43 - price vs what you get equals the best value we've run into on the road. read more

The best, also attached to a great steak house called chandlers. Rooms a good size and location is tough to beat.

I encountered a few minor issues along the way but the staff really did a great job resolving them. This isn't the place to go for free breakfast and kids swimming in the pool. But if you are looking for a nice little getaway right at Boise Center, this place is great. Well furnished, updated rooms and the bed was comfy!! Hotel was quiet and enjoyable! read more

The room is very overpriced its nothing special, very small for $200 a night. The elevator was very dirty, the walls in the hallway need cleaned and or painted. We could hear the street noice ALL night. The bed & pillows were the worst! The bed was extremely lumpy. Do not waist your money, stay at one of the new hotels. read more

If you want a quiet night, this may not be the place for you. The walls are paper thin allowing guests to hear the phone calls of their neighbors, (both sides of the conversation) and the discussion of house cleaning as they make their way down the hall. Other than that, great location, service and decor. read more

I'm happy to say Hotel 43 you are my new favorite spot to stay in Boise. Helpful friendly staff Clean well appointed rooms. The bedding was comfortable and the bear on the pillow was a nice touch. Think Hard Rock plus Mandalay Bay minus Vegas and you get the idea. Free wifi Free shuttle from airport Walking distance to stores and restaurants. I didn't have a car to park but would be bummed about the $10 fee if I did. Give them a try. I'm glad my fellow yelpers led me there. Truly a friendly and warm experience. read more

I was in town for a few days on business. The lobby is a little small so there was no place to sit and work, I had to do so in the room so that was a little off putting. The steakhouse attached to the hotel had pretty decent food and a rate you would expect at a solid 4 star hotel. The staff was great, very friendly and very helpful in the handful of questions I have. In relation to the city, I was in the center of where I needed and wanted to go. Boise is a great walking city and had much more to offer than what I was expecting. There is no question I would stay here again on my next visit. read more

I'm giving this review as a business traveler, who's on the road 200+ days/ year. The good: Location. The bad: Overpriced, even for the location. Valet parking is time consuming. Thin walls. Loud AC. Linens were ill fitting to the bed, which is aggravating. No free breakfast. The gym is small. The staff tried to be friendly, but it was just always awkward... And not really helpful at all. No pool. Incorrect charges on my bill ( which were corrected, it's still annoying to have to correct them). No fridge/ micro in room. $4 bottled water, when marriott and hilton give it away for free. Again.. All kinda small details, but at the price they're charging, these should be dialed in. Overall, this is an OK place for one drunken night in downtown Boise... But if you life is spent in a hotel, this ain't the place. read more

Just got back from a wonderful stay here. Other yelpers have covered it pretty well, but for real, this place is great. You can't go wrong with free wifi, free airport shuttle, adorable rooms, free Boise Art Museum ticket, and the great location. They also have a free yoga class on Wednesday mornings at 6am-- the instructor was great! Definitely worth waking up early for it. I was told they also offer the class on Monday evenings. read more

Great accommodations for the price. This is a nice hotel with a unique boutique feel. Comparable hotels in places like Seattle would be $70+ more per night. We only stayed a single night but the room was fairly comfortable. They upgraded us to a room with an allergen filter, which was a nice perk. Unfortunately, the blue power indicator on the filter was so bright it made it difficult to fall asleep. We had to put paper over it. My only main complaints are that the bathroom is VERY small, and the shower head is "aggressive". It has many small streams but the pressure is so high it's very nearly painful to shower. The staff was friendly and check-in/check-out was easy. read more

Hotel 43. Great location, service was great, super clean and friendly. Bed was comfy and towels were super fluffy. Loved the shower robes too. Just was hoping for a different lobby setting for visiting with friends. Would definitely recommend. We were here visiting our BSU student for a long weekend. Didn't need a car. Walked every where. read more

Very pleasant stay. I stayed in the Boutique Suite and was pleased with the spacious layout. The Jacuzzi tub is a highlight. Hospitality was excellent. The cleanliness of the room was not impressive. Behind the bathroom doors there was leftover hair/clothing fuzz from previous residents. The rooms are also a tad worn. And unfortunately the bedding was somewhat sloppy and I could not seem to keep the sheets tucked enough to not expose corners of the bare mattress. All in all the negatives didn't outweigh the positives and I would def stay there again. Also, the location is the best. read more

It is not a 5 star hotel (Ritz) but as a good hotel it gets 5 stars if that makes sense. Enjoyed my stay there for many reasons but the restaurant and cafe were the highlight for me. Very pleasant people work there so you are in good hands. read more

We have stayed at Hotel 43 many times in the last few years. The beds are very comfortable. The rooms are cozy and neat. We enjoy the retro style. Metro Cafe and Chandlers Restaurant is just below. You don't have to go far for an amazing breakfast, coffee, dinner or martini. This is a fantastic hotel. Big city feel in downtown. read more

It's ok. I have stayed here in the past and I think they are starting to show their age a bit. Rooms feel ok, nothing great. The sheets seem a little worn to me and aren't white which is a little off-putting. Street noise woke me earlier than I would have liked. I think I will stay somewhere else next time I am in town. read more

This hotel was beyond welcoming. Not only are the rooms very clean and the hotel itself beautiful but the staff are truly wonderful! I got to meet a select few of them at the front desk and told them about my audition that I had going the weekend of my stay and they wished me the best of luck and we excited to hear of how well it all went. They are very kind people and this is a great hotel. Would highly recommend! read more

Nice place, but expensive for what you get. Room is normal size. Bed is ok. There is a very small area with a sink outside the bath/toilet room with no place to put your "stuff". No breakfast. $250 after taxes. read more

Kelsey was working at the front desk when we arrived and was so kind and welcoming! They upgraded us to the Pure room and we were so comfortable. The room was clean and truly felt "pure." The only reason I am doing 4 stars instead of 5 is because our view was of the roof when we looked straight out the window. Oh well, someone has to have it, right? Would definitely stay again! read more

Brought the family in from the Bay Area to attend a wedding. Being that this was our first time in Boise in addition to having some trepidation about visting a city that seemed to bring out a "someone very close to you just died" reaction from my norcal compadres, we were very pleased by the accommodations and service provided by Hotel 43. I think our initial positive reaction allowed us to really sit back, relax, enjoy friends, and come away with a very positive impression of Boise in general. Hotel 43 wasn't spectacular by normal big city standards, but it provides enough pampering and comforts to make visitors from larger cities feel at ease. The staff is helpful, the rooms comfortable, and the restaurant is actually pretty amazing. We ordered room service the first night and were blown away (and my significant other is a vegetarian). The second night I got pretty blitzed with a good buddy on some exceptional martinis. Overall, you've got to love this place especially since it's not what you're expecting when visiting Boise. read more

I seriously love staying here! Whenever I am looking for a night away without leaving the city, Hotel 43 is where I go! The staff is so friendly and the hotel is so unique to Boise. I love how they highlight local artists and place such a strong focus on the community. Definitely will be back the next time I get the chance! read more

If I could give more stars I WOULD! My coworkers and I ended up here on accident when our previous hotel had a power outage. We were sent to Hotel43 and SERIOUSLY what a blessing!!!! The two girls at the front desk, Robin and Amanda, were so accommodating! Not only did they take care of our group of 6, but they went above and beyond to mention special perks available to us. When we had an issue with the parental controls on my coworkers TV we called the front and Robin came to our rescue without any qualms. She was unable to resolve the issue so we thanked her anyway and told her how impressed we were with the hotel/hospitality. I'm sure it's unusual for guests to give a Customer Service Rep hugs, but it almost felt necessary to hug Robin because she had treated us like family. Hopefully she passed the hug onto Amanda and HOPEFULLY we can be lucky enough to stay here again. read more
