    The Firebrand has a great location in downtown Whitefish and is a good base for Glacier National Park. The ambience is casual and elegant Western and the rooftop deck was nice although no food service was available there (maybe an end of season thing?). The room had two queen beds, comfy, two large armoires, flat screen tv, Wi-Fi, nice bathroom with shower. There were plenty of towels (thank you!!) and the shower got hot quickly (again, thank you!). I think a more upscale brand of shower items should be considered or at least a larger size. Public areas should be attended to more carefully. There were several large carpet stains all throughout our hallway. Coffee? Pets? Wine? Also the second floor sitting area always seemed extremely warm while the second floor hallway was cold. The Fitness Room could use an update (though I appreciate the 24 hour access).

    This is a very cute boutique hotel! The rooms are cute and cozy. I love the large bathroom and shower. They even have a snack bar in the room with everything packaged so well, with some funny additions. There's a hot tub on the roof with cabanas and a couple of fire pits. It was nice to sit up here in the evening while studying. The view is gorgeous! The staff is friendly and the location is so convenient. You're right downtown and just need to cross the street to all the shops. You can walk to the lake in 15-20 min. I gave only gave three stars because while the aesthetics are great, I didn't feel like the hotel was as clean as most others I stay at, even the lower-end ones. One of the beds had some stuff on it as if someone put their suitcase on it and the wheels left debris on the comforter - which is fine, it's on top, but I would expect this to get dusted off. There was also a hair on one of the pillows that were questionable (did it get stuck in the fibers while washing or was it unwashed?). I also grabbed a washcloth that upon unfolding, had a lipstick print in it (BUT ALSO, LADIES, USE A TISSUE LIKE EVERYONE ELSE). Other than those cleanliness issues, everything else was great.

    Honestly, there is no chicer place to stay in Whitefish This is a small boutique hotel that focuses on service and luxury. Service is impeccable, rooms are gorgeous (just take a look at the bathrooms) and they have an excellent restaurant. While Firebrand may be only four stories, they have a hot-tub on the roof and you can look over this small town and relax in the thought of being no where. Stargazing here is so memorable. This property is right downtown, so there are many shops, restaurants (Craggy's, Amazing crepes.) that are only a block away. I wanted R & R on this trip and Firebrand hit all the buttons. I will be back... if you're looking for the best, look no further.

    I enjoyed my meal at the bar. It's great for when you want to just stay at the hotel and relax. I'm not sure if the menus change seasonally.

    We took a random road trip this last Saturday and ended up in Kalispell at Los Corporales for Mexican food. Delicious! We were wondering where to stay and one of the regulars, I think her name was Holly, told us about the Firebrand Hotel. Beautifully renovated and right in the middle of town! Good price for the time of year (in between seasons) and everyone was so nice - There's also a shuttle that takes you to the sister property The Lodge I think it's called. We walked around town and then went back to go to sleep- MOST comfortable beds and lovely decor. Sunday morning we went up to the rooftop jacuzzi - the views were amazing! Sounds like we have a new tradition after Thanksgiving! Are the beds for sale? If not, they should be :)

    With all the positive reviews I thought this place would be a home run, until you realize the recent reviews are terrible. First impression started with the check-in...where we waited 15 minutes while the front desk was on the phone. And without acknowledging us with even a "hi be with you in a moment!". We waited so long I decided to grab us some beers from the bar while we stood there... Later that night we had drinks and listened to the live duo band, that part was awesome, and the room was nice- for these reasons I add a star. Unfortunately things went down from here, when heading back to Our room we ask the front desk (same girl who eventually checked us in) for a wine key to take back to the room. She directs me back to the bar, who then directs me back to the desk- then tells me they don't have any. We have quite a bit of a back and forth - she has a combative approach to my request, and I'm left kind of stunned. (And might I add that for a $300/night hotel this seems like a very simple request). We left the lobby and met two women in the elevator who were just as astounded by the terrible service as we were. The next morning the hotel sent us a text asking us about our experience, so I'm thinking "ok they are directly asking us- so we'll tell them!" They ask for a rating 1-10 and we give them a 2 with a simple note about why. And hear nothing back. I would think that this would have been a great opportunity for them to rectify... but they didn't even reply. It's actually laughable. The location is great, the rooms are nice, the live music was cool, but the service sucks :/

    I had an incredible stay at this wonderful hotel. The staff were so courteous and attentive. My favorite person here was Margaret- she was an absolute sweetheart. She made me feel like family. She checked-in with me often to ensure that my stay was wonderful. She checked me in and provided me information about the amenities and local activity options. The hotel was extremely clean and well-maintained. My room was wonderful and if I needed anything the staff helped make my stay comfortable. Shelby was also fantastic. All around I had a wonderful stay.

    We spent two dreamy and cozy nights at the Garden Wall Inn. The inn is a lovely historic building…read morein Whitefish Montana - immaculate inside and out. The gardens are superb! It's walking distance from a vibrant downtown with very nice locally owned shops and restaurants. The owners of the inn are so welcoming, friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable! We felt so at home in this cozy, lovely decorated and comfortable b 'n b! The breakfasts, prepared by one of the owners (a chef!) in their own kitchen, are absolutely scrumptious and gorgeously presented. We departed wishing we could have stayed even longer. We will return! Thank you so much, Garden Wall Inn, for a memorable stay. See you soon Chris and Rhonda

    Wow! Attended a Montana wedding. My husband and I can't recommend enough Chris and his top-notch…read morechef Rhonda in this most charming B & B in Whitefish, "Garden Wall Inn". It is perfectly located just next to the lovely small town. Chris made sure we were comfortable, checked in with us morning and evening, and gave us suggestions on places to go, what to know from a local perspective and how best to get there. He is so knowledgeable about the history, culture, terrain and everything you need to know. The accommodations were comfortable, with a large closet to put all our stuff. We could not believe the French press coffee brought to our room each morning at the time of our choosing (really?!!) and then the local offerings for breakfast!! A glass of wine in the evening if you choose. The comfort and the pleasure is all right there. And I am a fussy sleeper/traveler... this was true fun. Just beautiful up there!
