Top South Bay Trail Hotel Reviews

Oxford Suites Bellingham

10/10 Excellent

"Very close to Bellis Fair Mall."

Bay City Inn

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, staff was friendly and helpful."

Hotel Leo

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very unique property. The hotel is extremely well updated and renovated while maintaining the original charm of the property. The rooms are wonderful. Our only complaint was the noise as there was a wedding at the property one night. Earplugs were thoughtfully provided, however! The addition of the bar - and a superb bar tender, Mossy, made the experience elevated. I would stay here again!"

Coachman Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the Coachman Inn! It was very quiet and the room had everything we needed for our Bellingham visit for our friends' wedding. The free breakfast was clutch and the staff were so kind and welcoming. Thank you so much!"

Bellingham Lodge

8/10 Good

"I stayed"

Lavissh Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Clean & comfy bed with good breakfast. Only disappointment was when we open the cupboard where microwave & refrigerator are, smelled real bad, It wasn’t the appliances, the shelving & drawers. I closed the doors real fast & open the window. Also there was no screen on the window."

Sehome Garden Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great hosts, delicious breakfast, peaceful surroundings…it was a nice way to emerge into the Bellingham scene vs staying at a chain hotel. Will be back!"
