The Red Lion Hotel Kalispell receives mixed reviews, primarily due to inconsistencies in cleanliness and maintenance. While praised for its location, breakfast, and occasional excellent staff (particularly Allie at the front desk), guests frequently report issues with room conditions, pool maintenance, and slow response times from management regarding concerns. Value is a consideration given the hotel's dated appearance and occasional operational shortcomings.

The room was a bit run down but it is a very cheap hotel so you get what you pay for, the blanket was very thin I would maybe call it a sheet and there were holes in it which was a bit gross, the carpets were a bit dirty but other then that just out dated. The staff was nice enough when we checked in, breakfast was great lots of variety and pool was small but fine. If your looking for a cheap stay I would recommend if your looking for somewhere nice I wouldn’t. The location is great right by Main Street and we didn’t find it loud when trying to sleep.

Great location, lobby is very nice. The property is in need of repair. It’s like they are purposely trying to extract every single dollar out of the building without repairing stuff. Broken window (skylight) in swimming pool area, bathroom out of order in the swimming pool area, jacuzzi jets not working. Courtyard was cute but now it has dead trees, and in need of severe clean up.

The hotel was OK for the price we paid. We really liked the central location. The biggest problem was the pool. It was very poorly maintained and my kids all god burning eyes, bad, even with goggles and it reeked of chlorine. The pool towels were stained and one night there were none. On the plus side the location is great, parking is easy, the free breakfast was sufficient and the staff were very nice. It's just the pool really, and when your kids are so pumped to have a hotel pool, it's a real let down that it's literally painful for them to use it.

Always a really nice hotel ro stay at for an over night or even a week or more at a time. It's got alright staff members, altho there are times that these people can be rude and very judgemental towards people. I've witnessed them interacting with people that looked almost homeless and I couldn't believe the way in which the staff treated those people and they WERE STAYING THERE TOO and they STILL treated them as tho they were criminals or doing something wrong and they clearly were not in that aspect I think they need to teach their staff to not be judging a book by it's cover because u never know a person ya know. They may not have looked like it but they had money and paid for everything so I don't know what their problem was with them. Silly and not ok by any means ya know. Other then that the stay was good and the breakfast is always awesome.

I chose this hotel because of the shuttle to the airport, but I was pleased with my entire experience. It was extraordinary in every way. I enjoyed the pool, hot tub and sauna. The room and especially the bed were comfortable. The breakfast was a cut above the rest. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the shuttle driver was professional. I highly recommend this property!

Prior to even entering my room, my card had been rung up in an attempt to pay for someone else’s room. I walked into my room upon checking in and my room smelled horrendous. I left the room and the hotel within 30 seconds of getting in to my room and was not able to be given a refund on my refundable deposit or room fee.

We have stayed here many times in the past. House cleaning appears to be a challenge. The halls were usually not vacuumed, elevator floor sticky. Woke up early, so went to the lobby for coffee. Front desk person said he wouldn't put any out until 3:30. No personality, wrong occupation for this young man.

The location is great, as it is in downtown area where everything is accessible, shops and stores are nearby. Service is good, like their breakfast bit fancier than most hotels. Also love that the hotel have indoor pool, hot tub and sauna, it is really warm inside. BUT, I hate that our room cold AC is so freaking not working right, it didn’t get cold in our room, the AC is for sure due for change, guess only good for heater but not cold ac. Stayed there 4th week of September for 3 days in a 2 Queen bed with 4 people. It was difficult to sleep since the comforters are thick and the ac is not cold at all. It was like 74°F all the time inside with an AC saying supposedly outputting 54°F. End up we just left the window/door open for the room to be cold, since it’s cold outside lol Wasn’t able to change room since we were busy and have a lot of stuffs out to even bother moving.

The only reason I gave 2 stars was because the breakfast was excellent. Front desk staff were so unfriendly, unprofessional, and unhelpful. It was disappointing. They are often not there at all. I emailed the general manager to share the feedback there instead of here but received no reply. We were overcharged & our room was not to our satisfaction but we couldn't get help because there was no one at the front each time we went. We ended up tracking down a room cleaner to get what we needed. Use a different hotel in the area.

My family and I were extremely disappointed with our stay at the Red Lion Hotel. We had two rooms, and both were in equally poor condition. The carpets were filthy and heavily stained, and we even found garbage under the beds — including some pills, which is completely unacceptable. The towels were stained and frayed. The curtains were dirty, and there was hair left on the bathroom counter. Everything we touched in the room was sticky. The worst part, however, was finding what appeared to be a fingernail or toenail on the sheets in one of the rooms. It was clear the bedding had not been properly cleaned between guests, which is both disgusting and concerning from a hygiene standpoint. The only positive part of our stay was the breakfast. There were plenty of options, and the breakfast staff was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, a good breakfast doesn’t make up for the lack of cleanliness in the rooms. We would not stay here again and do not recommend this hotel until serious improvements are made in housekeeping standards.
