Best Hotels in Boise

There are plenty of amazing hotels in Boise to choose from for yourself and your wedding guests but my favorite options are: The Modern Hotel, The Grove, and The Avery. What started as a ramshackle hotel, The Modern Hotel has been turned into a beautiful, boutique hotel featuring amazing cocktails. Conversely, The Grove is classically upscale and elegant. Plenty of rooms to keep everyone in your wedding comfortable! And The Avery is Boise’s only historic boutique hotel, reimagined and meticulously renovated with a distinctively upscale restaurant and late-night gastrotavern counterpart.
