Three major performance venues - The Bing Crosby Theater (756-seat capacity), the Knitting Factory, and the Fox Theater - are within walking distance.

“I found this boutique hotel in Spokane's Entertainment District appealing, especially its dog-friendly policy. The in-house Sapphire Lounge, with its craft cocktails, is a definite plus after a day exploring nearby Riverfront Park. While some rooms face a busy street, the custom Ruby Hospitality mattresses promise a good night's sleep.”
