10th Anniversary Magic
Pros:

My husband and I stayed at the Inn at 500 for our 10th anniversary, and it was nothing short of magical. We have a longer trip planned for later this year, but we still wanted to mark the actual day with something special—and this hotel delivered beyond our wildest dreams.
​I called the day before to see if I could drop off a few surprises for the room, and the front desk staff were incredibly sweet and accommodating. However, the biggest surprise was waiting for both of us: they upgraded us to a stunning suite with a breathtaking view. Honestly, we were both moved to tears by the gesture.
​The room was gorgeous, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. We’ve already decided to make this a semi-annual tradition every six months and we can’t wait to bring our pups along next time! Thank you, Inn at 500, for making our milestone so unforgettable.

Charming downtown Boise boutique hotel
Pros:

You will truly feel like a guest at this hotel. Everything from the free snacks and beverages throughout your stay to the perfectly bagged ice to take to your room to the cozy lobby area. It was close to downtown for great food. Another highlight was the valet app made things so much quicker and easier. The subtly themed rooms were charming.

The room was so comfortable and the reception was very welcoming. I enjoyed being able to grab a cold water from the refrigerator and take to my room. The fireplace in my room was an added bonus! I really loved the ambiance it created.

Boise Stay
Pros:

The Inn at 500 Capitol was wonderful! We stayed there twice during our trip to Boise since we liked it so much the first time. They provide free snacks and water and a glass of wine or a beer at check in.

Pros:

A rough start to our 2-day stay. We were going to stay & relax before we had to do a Formal, then to a Funeral. Because of the issues we paid for a night without staying in hotel & it was even commented on when we arrived before our event that we wasted a night. We spent as little time at the hotel as possible. Since we didn't book directly through the hotel, booking through Expedia at over $400 a night w/ a tiny discount, we were treated like we 2nd class or something. Not a great stay. I can say this will be the last time we stay at this hotel unless something major changes. We stay because our friends stay and they get great service. They are absolutely dismissive with us. Weird because we tip better, we're never loud, we never ask for anything, never complain about the room. The issue is always the handicapped parking they continue to violate and act like we're the issue. He ask nicely and theyre dismissive orthe last time their chef ws parked in the slot and told me I could come back later. So we did, a day later, wasting over $450 on a night not to stay the night. Then he made flipped comment about "well your reservation were made through Expedia so things were bound to go wrong" & told me to make it w/ the hotel next time to get service. We had requested the romantic package w/ red wine for the challenging week we'd ha. I followed up the day before & put the credit card on file. Got to the room & receipt was on stick in flowers. Not Romantic. They just didn't care.
