Top University of Montana Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Missoula Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I brought a pet, it would have been nice if you had a dog yard area."

Comfort Inn Missoula near University

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is in perfect location to walk to campus for games or concerts. My family stays here often. Hotel is old and starting to show its age. But is clean and coinvent."

Holiday Inn Downtown - Missoula by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed here many times. Always great."

The Wren

10/10 Excellent

"The Wren is exactly as described—a simple, beautifully designed hotel that encourages you to get out and explore Missoula! The rooms are modern with a charming Montana flair, impeccably clean, and mine had a cool street view. The staff were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely accommodating. Their flexibility with a late checkout made my final day so much better! Valet service was seamless, and the complimentary access to a nearby gym was a lovely touch. The location is fantastic, within walking distance of great restaurants, including Plonk, which I highly recommend. Although the coffee shop isn’t open yet and amenities are limited, the little convenience store is wonderful. Despite uncooperative weather keeping me tucked up with takeout most evenings, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Missoula is spectacular, and I’d happily return to The Wren!"

Bel Aire Motel

8/10 Good

"Staff was accommodating with the TV issue and moved us to another room. This room didn’t have a fridge so they let us move the fridge also. Over all a decent experience. Hopefully they invest in better tv’s though and fridges for each room. Renovations were cheaply done but a good investment to an old motel."

Edgewater Missoula, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Lovely remodeled (Old Red Lion) on the river. Everything costs extra however: breakfast, all parking even self park, WiFi. We did not have a balcony at all just a tiny patio overlooking the parking lot. Oh well."

City Center Motel

10/10 Excellent

"What was unique was having our dog at a clean friendly hotel in walking distance of the beautiful river, bars and restaurants and the library. I asked for bottom floor so we could take dog out, motel style. Next time I’ll ask for sunset side on 2nd floor. Amazing views everywhere in Missoula. Beds and pillows were comfy, we slept very well."

AC Hotel by Marriott Missoula Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Rooftop bar is spectacular. Can’t beat the location."
