The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Tacoma Hotel

Comfort and Convenience Just Outside Downtown Tacoma

Modern, clean, and well-equipped, the Best Western Plus Tacoma Hotel offers a comfortable escape just 6 miles from downtown Tacoma. With easy access to highways and major music venues, it's a practical hub for concert-goers looking for a balance of affordability and amenities. Guests love the free parking, 24/7 front desk, and the relaxed vibe that makes this hotel feel like a home base between shows.

Why Concert-goers love it

Whether you're heading to a packed arena or a smaller club in Tacoma or nearby Seattle, the hotel’s location makes show nights stress-free. It’s just a short ride to downtown Tacoma’s main music venues, while still offering a quieter atmosphere for post-show unwinding. With flexible late check-in at 3 PM and a quick hop to the freeway for rideshares or taxis, getting to and from concerts is easy. Plus, the hotel’s soundproofed rooms let you actually sleep after a night of music.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable, convenient base
  • Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list tour stop
  • Couples wanting a weekend getaway with music in the mix
  • Fans needing a quiet space to rest and recover
  • Budget-conscious listeners who still want comfort and perks

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a daily buffet breakfast—perfect after late nights out. There’s also a 24-hour snack bar and drinks available at the on-site bar. While it doesn’t have a full-service restaurant, it’s within walking or quick driving distance to several late-night eateries and fast-casual spots. Fridges in every room also make it easy to stash leftovers for the next day.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no on-site live music, the hotel bar is a laid-back spot for a drink before or after a show. Downtown Tacoma is just a short ride away, where you’ll find craft cocktail lounges, breweries, and live music venues. It’s a great setup for catching local acts or keeping the night going.

What People Say

Guests praise the friendly staff, clean rooms, and quiet atmosphere. Many comment on how easy it is to get around with a car and appreciate the free parking—a big bonus for concert-goers. The reliable Wi-Fi and 24-hour front desk also get consistent shoutouts.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests noted that the hotel is not directly in downtown Tacoma, so a car or rideshare is usually needed to get to most venues. Others mentioned that the surrounding area isn’t particularly scenic, but most agree it feels safe and well-lit.

The Bottom Line

A convenient, affordable choice for concert-lovers who want to skip downtown noise but stay close to Tacoma’s music scene.

Ashley the Frontline staff is...

Liked: The pillows were very comfortable. And the clean rooms.Running a business is being customer centric, and making sure the experience one gets is invaluable from inception. This is exactly what your Frontline staff Ashley did. She went out of her way to help with the little seamingly small things like showing you where breakfast is, the directions of stores around, and generally being nice. Most importantly, she didn't make you feel like u were bothering her with questions. She was happy to take them all.I think she is exceptional and the highlight to the stay
Disliked: The fact that I didn't have body lotion in my room and toothpaste but Ashley at the front desk assisted with toothpaste..

Great hotel, great customer service

Liked: The best sleep I’ve ever had! The beds were incredibly comfortable and everything was spotless. I loved that there was a coffee machine available in the lobby, such a nice touch. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of options—bacon, sausage, eggs, waffles, donuts, cereal, and more. From check-in to check-out, the entire staff was amazing. Highly recommend!
Disliked: Water bottles in the room would be a nice touch.

and Ok stay, I didn't...

Liked: the staff and cleanliness were great. The room looked out on buildings and the highway was extremely loud until very late. Next time I would ask for a room away. Breakfast left a little bit to be desired compared to Holiday Inn express. I think that could be approved upon a little bit and a little more attention to coffee needing to be replaced when empty in early 6-7:30 hour when many are getting coffee.
