The Spotlight on Best Western Lakewood Motor Inn

Classic Comfort Close to Tacoma’s Live Music Scene

Modern convenience meets retro charm at the Best Western Lakewood Motor Inn, located in the heart of Lakewood, WA. Just a quick 10-minute drive to McChord Air Force Base and Fort Lewis, this hotel offers a cozy, quiet retreat under tall evergreens with easy access to Tacoma’s top concert venues and nightlife. With free Wi-Fi, a seasonal outdoor pool, and in-room amenities like a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker, it’s an easy, affordable home base for music lovers.

Why Concert-goers love it

Fans heading to Tacoma shows appreciate the hotel’s proximity—just a 15-minute drive from downtown Tacoma venues and Pacific Lutheran University. After the encore, return to a peaceful neighborhood for a solid night’s sleep. The hotel’s 24-hour coffee station is a hit with night owls, and the free parking is a big plus for road-trippers. Check-in is available from 3:00 PM, with check-out at 11:00 AM—giving you time to sleep in just a bit.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends road-tripping for a show
  • Solo travelers on a concert pilgrimage
  • Couples making a low-key weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking quiet after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value

Food and Drink Options

The free hot continental breakfast is perfect for refueling after a late night out. While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel is near several walkable eateries and diners. Fresh coffee is available 24/7 in the lobby, which is a welcome perk for the post-concert crowd. Microwaves and fridges in every room make late-night snacks easy.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is quiet and doesn't have a bar, the surrounding area offers laid-back neighborhood pubs and lounges. If you're headed into Tacoma, you'll find everything from craft breweries to live music bars just a short drive away.

What People Say

Guests often rave about the hotel’s friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and great value for the price. The location gets high marks for its peaceful setting and easy access to both concert venues and local attractions like Lakewold Gardens. Travelers also love the free parking and fast Wi-Fi.

Areas for Improvement

The property is a bit dated in places, with some guests noting the decor feels retro—but many also say it adds to the motel's charm. The pool is seasonal, so if you're traveling in colder months, it won’t be available. There’s also no on-site bar, so you’ll need to venture out for drinks.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, affordable stay close to Tacoma’s music venues, the Best Western Lakewood Motor Inn hits all the right notes.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Siuming Tue, 10 June 2025

It’s advertised as a 2-star...

Liked: Breakfast was good, but the hours from 6:00 - 9:00 am are not ideal. 3 out of 4 days we didn’t make it in time. And the worst was there’s no wifi !!
Disliked: Room was cleaned only 1 out of 4 days… and NO WIFI. The toilet was not functioning properly had to jiggle the chain every time we flush
