Top Fort Nisqually Living History Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Murano

8/10 Good

"It was ok and yeah was clean not bad at all"

The INN at Gig Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Both staff and property rated outstanding. Expedia needs to consider implementing policy improvement to include granting contract upgrade/extending stay. At same terms as originally set. Not helpful making client arranging extension separately."

Walk to the waterfront The Cozy Cottage

8/10 Good

"The cozy cottage is the perfect place to stay for 1-2 people when visiting the Ruston area in Tacoma. There’s a small convenience store a couple blocks away with coffee, beers, etc. Wifi on site was fast and easy to connect to (once we did a little troubleshooting). Towels and basic toiletries are provided as well as dishes, a Brita water filter, and Keurig coffee maker. The bed is comfy, but the bedroom does get warm in the summer. There’s a large fan in the bedroom to keep cool. Overall, I would recommend this place of looking for a place to stay in Ruston / Tacoma."

Walk to the waterfront The Hobbit House

10/10 Excellent

"It was quiet and quaint, very homey. The communication from the host was impeccable. We'll be a return guest, for sure!"
