Spokane, Washington Bed and Breakfasts from the Early 1900s

Stormy Brooke Swain
Once Known as Spokan Falls, the city was incorporated in 1881. Many of the homes from that time are still standing today and are used as Bed and Breakfasts. If you are interested in learning about the history of Spokane, one of the best places to start is a historic home. Rent a room for a night or a week and ask the hosts about the history of the home, which will tie into most of the city and other homes. The nightly rates start at a little under $100 and go up, depending on which home and room you choose to spend your stay in.

Angelica's Bed and Breakfast
Spokane, Washington

This Bed and Breakfast makes me feel like I am in a Craftsman/Old English style home. The woodworking is original and is well maintained. The home is modern, but still provides plenty of history in it's decor. The home's landscaping boasts well maintained grounds, that look ready for a wedding or lovely reunion. This Spokane, Washington Bed and Breakfast is a large brick, which towers over the grounds. The rooms at Angelica's are very feminine, but aren't tacky or over the top. Rates are $90 to $155 a night and there are four good sized rooms to choose from.

The Marianna Stoltz House
Spokane, Washington

The Marianna Stoltz House of Spokane, was built in 1908 and the grounds that surround the Bed and Breakfast are timeless as well. The home is has a cozy porch leading to the front door, which is a great place for conversation or an after dinner cup of coffee. There are four rooms in the home for rent and all have queen beds, except for one, which can be a king or two twin beds. Free Hi-Speed Internet, long-distance, robes and extra pillows are great amenities offered by the Marianna Stoltz House Bed and Breakfast. Prices for a room and breakfast range from $89 to $109 depending on the room.

The E. J. Roberts' Mansion
Spokane, Washington

The E. J. Robert's Mansion Bed and Breakfast, is well decorated inside and out. From the flower beds to the perfect sign in front of the beautiful front door, this bed and breakfast makes onlookers stop in their tracks. This mansion was built in 1889 and still displays a the beautiful Queen Ann style architecture, that was popular then. The suites in the Bed and Breakfast all have private baths, and two of them have claw-foot tubs with separate showers for a soak after a long day of exploring Spokane. The price for a suite and breakfast is $140 to $175 a night and well worth it, because this Bed and Breakfast is one of the most historic in Spokane, Washington.
