The rooms are decorated with just enough modern flair to give you that little lift when you walk in. The beds are ultra-comfortable, and the top-floor suite has twelve-foot ceilings. Some rooms even have views of the Idaho State Capitol building or the stunning Boise foothills.

Comfortable, artsy, and perfect for business.

Chandlers Steakhouse is as swanky as the food is delicious. The booths are black leather with white linen cloths, and there's live jazz playing seven nights a week. The bar is backlit with blue light—and it's home to the famous ten-minute martini, winner of Boise's Martini Mix-Off.
