The hotel interior is absolutely beautiful and serene - sophisticated and colorful art graces each hallway. The lobby is spacious and comforting. The location is primetime Tacoma, walking distance to the convention center (1 block), Pantages Theater/Rialto Theater (2 blocks) and many restaurants. I actually think if they updated their *exterior* it would take this hotel to a 5 star hotel. It seems a bit dated outside, but walking inside is a breath of fresh air! The room was clean and updated. Housekeeping was done daily (we stayed for 3 nights) and top notch. Gym was good.. 2 treadmills, 2 ellipticals, a bike, a full free weights rack and two other machines, 1 weight bench. Each time I went to the gym, I was alone, so thumbs up from me for accessibility. *Runners know, however... the treadmills were on a 0.5-1.0 incline which is pretty much death. :) Not sure if it's the floor or the treadmills themselves, but they're both on a slight hill. Parking was easy, and they provided a nightly discount for our conference! Thank you to Hotel Murano and their manager for this. Beautiful place, great location, good price - would definitely stay here again.

Whenever an elevator is active, a gunshot or hammering noise is heard. See video taken 6/7/2025 below. This can be heard all through the hotel. Even on the 24th floor in a room not near the elevator with earplugs in I could hear it. The desk folks said this is "normal" and had been this way since they opened. I don't buy it. I just don't think they care enough to spend the money to investigate. They gave my $60 to their credit,

I actually had a great experience at Holiday Inn Express Tacoma. Stayed the night here to attend a…read moreconcert at the Tacoma Dome. It was literally minutes away. About a 5 minute drive there and we walked back which took us about 20 minutes. Easy peasy. We had 2 rooms, next to each other. One to get dressed and the other for family as we would explore Tacoma the following day. The rooms were decent size. We had a king bed and a full size pull out couch and a nice view. The room also had a Keurig and a mini fridge. The rooms were clean and comfortable. There was breakfast in the morning that was pretty good. I was thrilled about the garage parking as I saw broken car windows of cars parked on the street. The garage was gated and required a key card for entry. I worried for nothing. My car was safe. My only gripes are that the rooms were not connected and there was construction going on. That was not enough to make me unhappy with my stay. Overall, 9/10 I would recommend.

They weren't a 100% cotton and that makes them just a little bit softer. My room was very clean. What can I say? I would come back when I'm driving through Tacoma. The downside.. Around 9:30 a.m. a dog started howling so I contacted the front desk and they said it was a service dog. Time to get up.

As promised in my last review from 2022, my husband and I returned to Silver Cloud for a staycation…read moreand booked one of the jacuzzi rooms. Highly recommend, and completely worth the price tag. Since we've stayed here before, we were pretty clear on what to expect. Check in was smooth, the valet staff were super nice, and we had a fantastic stay. The jacuzzi room is definitely spendy, but we were dead set on it. My husband and I started a tradition a few years ago where we nixed Christmas presents and decided to book 2-3 day vacations instead. With this being our belated gift to each other, we knew we wanted to splurge. I'm fully convinced there isn't a room here that has a bad view. We had sweeping views of the water and once the fog lifted in the morning, it was gorgeous! The jacuzzi tub is a little finicky to get the temperature correct, but once we had that figured out it was great. It takes a bit to fill up (about 20 minutes) so just be ready. Silver Cloud at Ruston definitely is a little on the pricier side, but it's entirely worth it in my opinion!

I had a run in with a gal one fine morning, her name is Edith. She was rude, curt and well a few other words I won't use here. I came down for coffee. 5:45 ish I approached the Bistro counter to ask where I could get coffee. "We don't open until 6:30!" Oh I see do t you have house coffee set up out here? "What do you want just like regular drip coffee?" Um yes. "Well I don't have a till yet so you can pay at the host desk and then come back here." You don't just have any out here like complimentary? "Well you can just drink the coffee in your room!" Ok! So I walked away from what was about to get explosive!!! Sat nearby to wait . At 6:15 she started to serve others, no "hey I'm ready now" or " I can help you now" When I finally ordered my $6.07 coffee I paid in cash. I could tell by the "humph" that this annoyed her. I don't believe I have stayed at a Marriot Courtyard that did not have house coffee in the lobby! I know I have never been verbally accosted like this. Look you are in the hospitality business m, I myself have been for 45 plus years, that ain't how you do it! She should maybe pursue a different career! This doesn't fit the Marriot guidelines I am used to! I will also say they during my stay I interacted with two other employees at said Bistro , Jasmine and Hellen and they both were extremely pleasant

This review is for McMenamins Pub at the Elks Temple…read more Looking for breakfast, we decided the Pub at McMenamins Elks Temple was the place to go, not only for some good food but also to get my McMenamins Passport stamped. Since the Pub was the only place open at the time of day we were there, only one stamp was to be had... but the delicious breakfast made up for it! I had a half order of the Fungi Benedict which was made with half a toasted English muffin & one scrambled egg, covered with herbed wild mushrooms, sautéed spinach and Hollandaise sauce. Several choices are available for sides and I chose the fresh fruit (fresh strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and more). It was very tasty and perfectly done. We sat by a window inside, since the outside seating areas were still closed, but the beautiful sunny day made for a perfect venue for breakfast. Our server was attentive, quick to refill water, and made sure to check back in with us regularly. I enjoyed this McMenamins location a lot. I think I'll have to go back to get the rest of my Passport stamps and to sit in one of those outside seating areas that overlook the harbor. I feel another road trip coming on.

We have also had the opportunity to swim in the pool when friends were staying here a few months back and it's very clean and even though it's outdoor, it's a very inviting environment. Everything is clean and everyone is so friendly... The fire pit out front is really nice and they have a little market at the front desk if you just need a couple of small things and don't want to run to the store. The rooms are well appointed with what you need to cook, and that was really nice considering we had left everything behind at our water damaged house. We will definitely stay here again if the need arises.

I documented the room's condition with photos, although I am not including the toilet photos due to their graphic nature. At 4:12 a.m. on July 8, while getting ready for the airport, I discovered there was no running water. Although the front desk brought me bottled water, guests were never informed about the plumbing issue. Because of the poor room condition, lack of communication, and no water on the morning of my departure, I requested a price reduction/refund. I have not received any response from the hotel staff or manager, despite sending an email. When I checked out, there was no one at the front desk available to speak with. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this location. I also stayed here in December and experienced similar issues. I chose to give the hotel another chance, but I encountered the same problems with the condition of the room. It is very disappointing to have had the same experience twice. Areas for Improvement: The biggest opportunities for improvement are communication, room readiness, and quality control. * Guest communication: If there are known facility issues, such as plumbing problems or loss of water service, guests should be notified as soon as possible. Clear communication allows guests to make arrangements and avoid unexpected disruptions. * Room cleanliness and preparation: Rooms should be fully inspected before guests arrive to ensure they are clean and ready. This includes checking bathrooms, dishes, floors, surfaces, and all areas of the room. Guests should not have to clean upon arrival. * Quality checks and accountability: A final room inspection process would help identify issues before check-in and ensure housekeeping standards are being met. * Front desk availability and follow-up: Having staff available during checkout and responding promptly to guest concerns would greatly improve the overall experience
