Top South Bay Trail Hotel Reviews

Wingate by Wyndham Bellingham Heritage Inn

8/10 Good

"Hotel is so-so with 3 buildings divided by streets. Garbage outside was overflowing. We are senior citizens, put on the third floor with 2 sets of stairs - no elevators. (although the steps were probably good for us!)Breakfast was really good, clean and friendly staffed. It took over a week to get my damage deposit off my checking account, and that was after I called and got no verification that it had been removed. Hotel is very close to freeway ramp, which was nice for early morning traveling."

Lavissh Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"I stayed here for my 1st night stop of the RSVP bike ride and it was perfect for what I needed. Clean, quiet, walking distance to Whole Foods and Fred Meyer, and a good coffee spot right next door."

Heliotrope Hotel

8/10 Good

"The “suite” seemed to be an old garage. Not at all private or quiet with cars and lamps right outside the windows by the bed. Strange shape. The dog run was a real plus. The neighborhood is a great location. I liked the friendly staff. D as jumped on towels. Lovely property."
