We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Best Western Plus in Moses Lake -- a place that…read moresurprised us with its thoughtful amenities, amazing food, and genuine hospitality. This is not your average three-star hotel. I'm already planning my next visit!
1. The Breakfast Bar - Truly a Standout Experience
Hands down, one of the best hotel breakfasts I've ever had in this category. Nearly everything is handmade from scratch -- no boxed waffle mix or egg-carton scrambled eggs here. The waffles had the perfect balance of savory and subtle sweetness, ideal for anyone watching their sugar intake. The gravy was rich, hearty, and full of homemade flavor -- you could taste the care in every bite. The highlight, though, was the custom omelet station, where you can create your own with a solid selection of toppings. The attention to detail and quality at breakfast alone sets this hotel apart.
2. Stunning Lakefront View & Walking Path
The hotel sits right on a beautiful lake, and you can enjoy your meal or morning coffee with a serene lake view from the window-side seating. There's also a small walking path along the water -- perfect for a peaceful early stroll before the summer sun heats up. I even spotted swans one morning! Paddle boarders and small boats regularly pass by, adding to the tranquil, postcard-like setting.
3. Impressive Room Amenities
Our room was spotless, with crisp linens and a smart layout. I loved that the sink was separate from the toilet and shower area -- much more convenient when sharing the space. A standout feature was the oversized fridge, easily twice the size of typical hotel mini-fridges (even at higher-end chains like Hyatt). It fit all of our road trip snacks and meals comfortably. Other thoughtful touches, like a pre-stocked makeup remover wipe (which I always forget!), elevated the experience. The temperature control worked well, the bed was comfortable, and while the pillows leaned firmer, they were clean and supportive.
4. Fantastic Dinner & Patio Vibes
Dinner on the outdoor patio was a peaceful and delicious experience. I ordered the prawn entrée -- and wow. You get 7 or 8 jumbo prawns in a lemony, buttery broth for around $25, and I happily devoured every bite (and drank every drop of the broth like soup). The salad bar was fresh, with fiber-rich options that made me go back for two full plates. But the unexpected star? The clam chowder. Creamy, hearty, and clearly made in-house, it was easily one of the best I've had -- even rivaling the chowders at Pike Place. I don't usually go for creamy soups, but I happily had two full bowls!
5. Top-Notch Service with a Smile
The restaurant staff were truly wonderful. Every server greeted us with genuine warmth and attentiveness. It's clear this hotel has been around for a while, but the hospitality hasn't faded -- which is rare and says a lot. The team was friendly, caring, and made us feel valued throughout our stay.
Final Thoughts
This hotel impressed me on every level. From the exceptional food to the peaceful lake views, thoughtful room amenities, and genuinely kind service, Best Western Plus in Moses Lake delivered a stay that far exceeded expectations for its star level.
6. Relaxation & Wellness Amenities
The hotel offers a great range of wellness amenities, including a spa, gym, dry sauna, and a heated indoor pool. Whether you're looking to stay active or simply unwind, these spaces provide a perfect balance of fitness and relaxation during your stay.
If you're visiting, don't miss the clam chowder, the shrimp dish, and the custom omelets -- they're all fantastic.
Highly, highly recommend!
