Overall great style and fun ambience. Staff is welcoming with good customer service. Rooms need updating and are way overpriced in their current condition. Ear plugs would be a nice, and inexpensive, addition to the rooms given noise level.

Beautiful, unique property to stay at. Love all the bars and restaurant options within the hotel. Some place everyone should try at least once if you like decor and whimsy and not cookie cutter hotels!

Elks Temple like other McMenamin properties is a unique building with clever spaces even a secret bar we couldn’t find the first time. The lighting is dark and moody inside. The restaurants are staffed very well. Parking is street only and free parking is limited. The area around is urban and walkable for dining. The view of the bay is top notch.

After reading other reviews we were concerned about parking and riffraff. Neither were an issue. We would happily stay again.

We have loved visiting this property for concerts, to go to the restaurant and finally got to stay in one of the rooms this weekend. It’s fun, funky, beautiful and unique and the staff is really great. The issue we had this weekend had to do with the fact that there is no parking garage and you have to park on the street. Unfortunately, our vehicle was broken into just outside of the hotel and we had several thousand dollars worth of items stolen from the vehicle and the back passenger window broke out. They do apparently have a security guard who walks around and they did report the break in to the front desk sometime in the middle of the night but we weren’t notified and no one at the front desk could tell us anything more about those details when we checked out. Police responded quickly and we filed a report but obviously, won’t be much they can do beyond that. Not sure we’d stay again, for this reason alone. Just too risky in this area.

This is such a unique property. It was very quiet and clean and comfortable and so many fun bars to go to and different foods to eat. It is also walkable to many different restaurants downtown Tacoma. We really enjoyed this experience and front desk staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming!
