It was 1914 when entrepreneur Louis Davenport first began welcoming guests to his vision for a luxurious nights stay with all the feel and comforts of home. Nearly a century later the Davenport Hotel remains the crowned jewel of downtown Spokane.

Located in the Northeastern corner of Washington is the city of Spokane, gateway to the inland empire and twice voted an All-American city for its beautiful parks and family-friendly atmosphere. Within walking distance of upscale shopping and an array of the cities finest restaurants stands the Davenport Hotel. The Davenport has long been rated as one of the top luxury hotels in the nation and perhaps the world, but it’s not often a decadent nights stay is accompanied with a trip back in time. From the moment you’re greeted by the hotel doorman there is a definite feeling of being somewhere very special.

THIS IS A REMARKABLE PLACE. I HAVE TOLD THE OWNERS OF THE HOTEL WALT AND KAREN WORTHY WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS NOT A HOTEL AT ALL BUT A TIME MACHINE. AND I THINK YOU’LL UNDERSTAND AFTER WALKING A FEW MINUTES IN THESE HALLS THAT THAT’S TRUE.(Tom McArthur, Communications Director)

The Grand Lobby with its Spanish feel and ornate beauty has a true feeling of comfort and serves as a relaxing spot for guests to visit, dine or just enjoy the warmth of the fireplace. The original hearth and artwork have been restored and remain today as the centerpiece of “Spokane’s living room.” Louis Davenport knew how to make his guests feel right at home.
