Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma
A downtown Tacoma address at a fair rate
About this hotel
Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma trades the higher ratings of the Lakewood corridor for a genuine downtown Tacoma address, four minutes by taxi from the Tacoma Art Museum and within reach of downtown restaurants on foot. Its own on-site restaurant, free breakfast, free parking and fitness center cover the practical basics, and it costs noticeably less than Hotel Murano for a similar downtown location. Its 7.2 rating from 64 reviews is more modest than the area's top performers, reflecting a straightforward, dependable rather than exceptional stay roughly twenty-nine minutes from Chambers Bay by car. Accessible and smoke-free throughout, it works as a fair-value downtown fallback for a group that still wants to walk somewhere in the evening after golf.
- Downtown location
- On-site restaurant
- Free breakfast
Our take
Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma suits a budget-conscious group wanting a downtown Tacoma base without paying Hotel Murano's premium; the location does real work here even if the review score does not match the area's leaders. I see its 7.2 from 64 reviews as solid rather than standout. Groups that want the highest-rated stay above everything else should look at Comfort Inn & Suites or Thornewood Castle instead.
- Walk downtown for dinner rather than driving — that's the main advantage of this location over the Lakewood options.
- Eat at the on-site restaurant on a night your group doesn't want to venture out after golf.
- Compare directly against Hotel Murano if downtown location matters more to your group than the top rating.

Why guests love itBest Western Plus Downtown Tacoma is the downtown base I would suggest to a family watching costs. The on-site restaurant covers the evening when nobody wants to go out, free breakfast works before an early Chambers Bay tee time, and free parking matters for the drive of roughly twenty-nine minutes to the course. Downtown restaurants are within walking distance. Its 7.2 rating from 64 reviews is modest, so expect a dependable stay rather than a memorable one.
