We had a great time staying at the Modern!! The rooms are cool, comfortable and functional. The location is ideal for exploring downtown Boise and the restaurant is excellent- fabulous food and cocktails!! The staff was super friendly and helpful. The entire property has a groovy vibe, down to the in-room TV channel dedicated to short films. Oh- and the breakfast is lovely!!

Great hotel within walking distance to many things. There is construction work going on around the hotel but nothing that interrupted the stay. I did stay in the interior rooms and requested a mini fridge be added which I would recommend. The breakfast provided in the mornings was great along with the bikes guests can access. I did have issues with the Wifi some days in that it would say connected but nothing loaded. If you book directly on their site, they provide an Uber to and from the airport which is a great add. 10/10 would recommend.

Not very kid friendly and does not give all that great check in service unsafe look and very adult so I cannot recommend this as a dad and a husband. My wife said if this was our honey moon noooooo waaaay!. They did comp my additional bed because they knew they got caught ripping a from what we paid for to what we got no microwave as advertised and multiple times misquoted our reservation this hotel is like trees that cannot be trusted very shadySo I stand corrected in an email about what they gave us. Even screen shots from them. In my defense and the defense of out awesome travel agent, who did an amazing job, it still does not match what she set up for us. So I still keep my one star as a family man because this trip is my daughters and I want her to have the best time ever and they still do not live up to kid friendly. I do thank the staff for being nice and accommodating, and that they competed our additional bed. And I also want to end by saying our travel agent is amazing and jumped right in to assist us. Thank you so much. And again because of screenshots I stand corrected

Sadly, I haven't stayed at Modern Hotel yet. I was supposed to stay last night through Sunday, but my flight was cancelled and there weren't any other flights I could take. But, Modern Hotel was gracious enough to cancel my booking without charge. When I finally make it to Boise, I'll definitely be staying at Modern Hotel.

What a great place! I had a quick weekend trip to Boise and my wife found this very cool hotel that use to be a travel lodge now converted to a very hip and unique vibe. Everyone there was so nice and accommodating. The rooms are very quiet and comfortable.The bar is super cool! Great signature drinks by the bar tenders. I went with Megan's delish mixology drink! Bravo. Great place, great drinks, great environment, and I will be staying there again soon!

Update: The manager at Modern Hotel called me the next day, apologized, and let me know there was a miscommunication; our pets ARE allowed on the beds and the extra blankets are for them! The manager also comped our night, which was so thoughtful! Thank you!

I've stayed at the the Modern many times--it is one of my favorite places to stay anywhere in the country. Love the rooms, shower is amazeballs, restaurant is fantastic, prices are reasonable, staff is always gracious, and it's located within an easy walk to downtown hubbub. I could do without the complimentary Idaho Spud Bar, but it's a quirky local touch.And contrary to Peter D's completely asinine hit piece, I've never once had an issue staying here. Not once.

Great spot. Very unique and creative cocktail menu and the food is extremely well crafted. I had the Venison Carpaccio and the grill endive salad. Really good stuff. The atmosphere is very nice and clean, but abtad weird because it's basically the lobby of an old motel. But don't let that scare you away. It's awesome and the staff is great.

I'm giving my homeboys and girls here at The Modern, 5 Stars *****. One for originality, one for authenticity, another for the food, another for the drinks and another for the vibe and stylishness of it all. CAN I GIVE a 6th Star for the outdoor dining space with gas fire pits and ample seating with privacy to boot?........Oh, and a 7th STAR, for the jammin' vintage record album in the bathroom that you get to play with while having a slash (That's English for going #1?) I have been frequenting this establishment since my obsessed with mid-century modern everything, friend Amy invited me out for a drink one day. I was so impressed with the drinks. OMG. They are up there with the best in town and might just even be "The Best". The food is high end. It's a little pricey, but worth it. The last meal I had there was with another friend that frequents the place pretty often. I ordered the octopus salad which was gorgeous. It was presented impeccably and had fresh, crunchy celery with very tender octopus, grilled to perfection and warm potatoes and picked peppers! I found this to be a very unique way of preparing it. It's now one of my favorite dishes (appetizer to be exact). My friend ordered BREAD which came with olives and pickles. She also got some homemade soup (sorry but I cannot remember what kind it was, but it looked divine!). I saw that someone posted comments about the location. The building has been there over 70 years, so other things will happen and pop up around it, but the Modern will remain, strong and unimpeded. That is not something that you have control of and to boot, Boise is a relatively safe place to live and explore, so the person who mentioned that it was a bad area.......well, that's just not true. It's just fine and I think that the growing diversity of this town, not to mention people who might be suffering in the area is no reason to avoid any establishment, and instead of criticizing the location and the "Other people" that you consider lower class citizens, that make you uncomfortable, maybe reach out and help instead? These are people in need and hurting. I like that the Modern is where it is and I bless them with good vibes and prosperity. See you all soon!
