    I was not too impressed with the "newness" of the carpets and hotel interior as I arrived, but my opinion of the place went higher and higher as I stayed. The staff was excellent. I asked for a microwave oven and it arrived in minutes. The employee who delivered it and set it up refused a tip. I discovered in the morning that I had forgotten to bring […] an antiperspirant. I called room service and had one in less than one minute. The bed was very comfortable, and the buffet breakfast in the morning was wonderful and less than $7.00. The next time I go to Olympia, I will stay here again. No question. Read more

    Usually I am skeptical about most Red Lions because they have been outdated and not remodeled to more modern standards. This Red Lion was a diamond in the rough in the fact that even though it hasn't had a major face lift, it has held it's beauty over time. The area where the hotel is located is beautiful. The view from the lounge is alluring and the […] drinks and food are good. The room was clean and spacious with good linens. If you are on a business trip, I would definitely recommend this hotel to prep for a meeting. Read more

Lounge staff were not particularly attentive but food made up for that. Outside of main lobby furnishings were a little worn. Great location once you found it.

    An older facility; smelled musty EVERYWHERE. The room left much to be desired; water left in the ice bucket from the previous guest, channels on TV remote stuck all the way in when pressed (Yuck!)

    There really aren't any "great" hotels in Olympia. The Red Lion is showing it's age in many ways, but it's clean and everyone tries their best. The location has it's pluses and minuses. It's not near anything, but it's quiet. If you don't have a car, it's a hassle, but if you do, it's convenient to the freeway, very easy to get to downtown Oly, plus […] the malls and businesses in the surrounding areas. It's a bit of a weird tucked away location, but once you find it, it's not a problem. The wireless works most of the time and the speed is not too bad. All in all, when I come to Olympia on business, I keep trying other hotels, but return to the Red Lion because it's the best balance of everything. Read more

    Great location, beautiful views. Restaurant decor very bland and boring but rooms are clean, although very basic and decor also bland. Fine for business travel of 1-2 days but I would not stay there if I was on vacation.

    I've stayed in many hotels over the years and rarely take time to write a review. This Red Lion was really a disappoint though. Service checking in was awful - only one person for several clients waiting, no one to answer the phone, etc. The room was dull, old and although clean it just felt creepy. The sheets were scratchy and the bed looked like someone […] had already been sitting on it when I entered. I love taking baths at night time, but didn't even consider the tub. Noise was an issue as well. Every time someone walked by the room each word of their conversation could be heard. I'm a light sleeper and this was a big issue. There aren't any places to eat within walking distance, which surprised me too. The price was FAR too high for such an accommodation, especially in this town. Read more

    I will never stay at your hotel again. I have dog allergies and when I asked about the policy of the hotel regarding dogs I was very unhappy to learn that dogs are allowed in any room. While there I saw 3 dogs on leashes walking the halls of the hotel. One dog was barking loudly and very disruptive. My greatest concern is that dogs are allowed in any […] room. Pet owners love their pets and allow them to sleep with them. Dog dander lingers in mattresses as well as on bedspreads. Read more

    Some of the most friendly staff I have ever encountered at a hotel. The restaurant had some of the best food and atmosphere also... All you can eat prime rib on a Tuesday... That was AWESOME!! Spacious room layout. Adequate fitness facilty but the pool and hottub were outdoors and closed for the season. It seems somewhat odd for a place with the climate […] of Olympia to have an outdoor pool and hottub. The only compliant I have is with the cleanliness of the bathroom. There was a large lump of hair stuck to the wall of the shower. Housekeeping obviously didn't wipe that down very well but everything else was just fine. Read more

    Great stay. Nice room, great bed, clean, nice restaurant (great veiws). Easy access to the highway and even a gas station nearby for picking up forgotten items. The only negative I could give is that the walls in my roof were scuffed up, time for a repainting but nothing major. I'd stay there again.

    As stated before the reason we got a room for the night in Olympia is?was to enter our son into his new dorm at college at nearby Evergreen College, we picked the Red Lion because we don't know the area at all and it is only 7 miles. from the college. As if dinner had not been a nightmare enough, the man in room next door was so loud I at first thought […] thier was a group and they were getting extremely intoxicated, but no it was 1 man screeching into his phone all night untill my husband finally called the front desk around 2:30A.M. to report him. They called him and gave him a warning which just angered him so he became louder and ruder his laguage had been ripe with foul words befe, but now he really let loose with the obseneties...So my husband called back after about 1/2 hour more of his abuse,& a hotel attendant came to the man next door& he told the man he must quite down as guests in rooms around him could not get any sleep and he roared back that he had better just move any other guests to different rooms! We could hear everything as if we were in the next room with him, the walls are paper thin. Needless to say we spent to much for a room where we got almost no sleep, and did not arrive home untill 3:30A.M. that night, we live quite far away. Read more

    This is a very nice hotel. My only issue is when I was checking out I asked to have my bill split and the guy at the front desk had no clue. Other than that it was very pleasant. If you are looking for a nice breakfast I would not recommend it. They only have buffet and it was not very good. The person working was obviously over stressed and could not […] handle the people or the tables. There were many tables that had not been cleared. Read more

    The hotel was fine...but my daughter left behind a pair of her favorite woven leather sandals - we called the next day. They said they found nothing. Well, she remembers exactly where they were left. Someone has a nice paif of leather sandals.

    Beautiful grounds, nice view, right on the bus line for easy 5 minute trip to downtown for $1. The only downside was the roof was being replaced so we got one night of hammering right above our heads until 8:30pm which I thought was a little late for people to be working. I'd definitely stay there again though.
