Top Athena Hotel Reviews

The FINCH

10/10 Excellent

"The Finch is a charming boutique hotel where every detail feels intentional. From the beautiful architecture to the thoughtfully selected bedding, everything has been carefully curated to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The bedding is luxurious, and the bed itself is incredibly comfortable, making for a wonderful night's sleep. One of my favorite features is the outdoor fireplace—it's the perfect place to unwind in the evening with a glass of wine from one of the local wineries. The games in the lobby and the cornhole on the lawn add a fun, welcoming touch, and there are cozy seating areas scattered throughout the property that invite you to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The location couldn't be better. Situated right in downtown, it's an easy walk to fantastic restaurants, local wineries, and adorable shops. What truly sets The Finch apart, though, is the customer service. The staff is exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. This was my second stay at The Finch, and it was every bit as wonderful as my first. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning again."

Courtyard by Marriott Walla Walla

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was real good and I'd stay here again...however 2 things could be improved upon....1st: since there was no housekeeping in between the 2 nights we stayed ( I could have requested but didn't...I try to re- use) it would be nice if a few more paper cups were available in the room for morning coffee from the in room keruig ( we re - used 1 cup...shared for our second day ...not the end of the world but prefer a clean cup) and #2 it would be nice to have lotion available in the large multi use pump format as the shampoo/ conditioner/ body wash....the little separate one provided is barely useful.I did request 2 extra pillows when we checked in and they were delivered promptly! A/C worked well. Liked the spacious room and couch. Overall a very good stay!"

The Marcus Whitman Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay! My husband and I were passing through on a road trip and stayed here. The hotel bar was lively, the decor and architecture was incredible, and the room itself was fantastic. We loved it so much we are staying again on our return trip. Highly recommend, especially if you are a wine drinker. I'm a beer person and even I had a great time in Walla Walla."

Radisson Hotel Pendleton Airport

8/10 Good

"This was our first time staying in Pendleton at this hotel. We were in town for a music festival. The location of this hotel was substantially far from the action downtown. If you are flying the location is perfect as it sits next to the airport. Much to our disappointment the hotel did not offer a shuttle service to the music venue and Uber in this small town was almost not a thing. However; the manager Brenda was awesome and offered to run us back and forth so we could enjoy some beverages and not drive. She was awesome. We love Brenda! The view from our hotel window was awesome as it overlooks the valley. We would stay here again but will check on shuttle service first before we book."
