Overview
The Heliotrope Hotel is located in Bellingham, WA and is a renovated vintage motel that serves as a modern retreat full of unique design, activities, and spaces to enjoy. A short distance from Western Washington University, it is also close to Whatcom Falls Park, Lake Padden, the Nooksack River, an array of brewing companies, restaurants, and shops, and the Salish Sea is close by. Hiking and horseback riding fans will appreciate the Chuchnaut Mountains nearby, and Lummi Island is often described as a must-see for its rural, old-fashioned atmosphere. The Bellingham International Airport is three miles away while the Amtrak station is also a short distance.
The heart of the hotel is the Hub, a public space with a library, hot beverage station, fireplace, bike storage, and more. The amenities also include the Yard for picnicking, cornhole games, a fire pit, and gardens. The pet-friendly hotel also has a concierge service, free parking, games and children’s activities, luggage storage, and free Wi-Fi throughout the entire property.
There are seven different room styles and each provides décor and design inspired by the Pacific Northwest setting. They feature universal amenities like high-end entertainment systems, wet bars, mini-fridges and microwaves, modern baths with tiled showers, premium bedding and linens, work desks with ergonomic seating, and daily housekeeping.
The Heliotrope Hotel can be a good base for exploring the region or a getaway all on its own, and places travelers in easy reach of Bellingham’s many attractions.

Cons (-) We sadly didn’t get to enjoy the nightly fire because we stayed on a rainy night but that’s the PNW for you!!
