We always enjoy staying at Hotel Leo when visiting Bellingham. The location is fantastic and centrally located near many of our favorite breweries and restaurants, which makes it easy to walk around and explore downtown. The bed was incredibly comfortable with great pillows, so we slept really well. We also love having Amendment 21 Bar downstairs — the drinks are great and the staff is always friendly. Overall it’s a great spot for a fun and relaxing stay in Bellingham.

Clean room, comfortable bed, and luxurious towels. Friendly staff and family friendly amenities. Helpful hint: if you arrive before check-in, you can grab a parking spot (get a card for your dashboard from reception) and explore the area on foot. There are amazing restaurants and shops close by. I was in town for a concert at the Mount Baker Theater (MBT), less than a 10 minute walk from the hotel.
