Visit Post Falls: Red Lion Templin's Hotel on the River

Our Pacific Northwest Road Trip took us from Washington to Montana, and then to Idaho, where we spent the night at the Red Lion Templin's Hotel on the River.


The first thing that popped into my mind when we pulled up to the hotel was how expansive it was.  Spanning three buildings and surrounded by lush green lawns, the parking lot of the Red Lion Templin's Hotel on the River was full of cars, and I also noticed one of the buildings was being painted.

My concerns about busyness or being disturbed by any renovations were immediately quelled when I walked into the welcoming lobby - complete with refreshments and seating areas overlooking the Spokane River - where I happened to meet the General Manager, who, along with the Front Desk employee, took the time to chat with me about the hotel and the general area.


How relaxing to just sit here and enjoy the view!

The 163-room hotel offers the same signature comforts found at other Red Lion Hotels - plush pillowtop beds, mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker, to name a few.
Our Premium River View Two Queen Beds room was on the smaller side compared to other hotels we've been to, but it was still sufficient for our stay, and the incredible views more than made up for the lack of space.

I could've just spent hours on the balcony gazing at the sparkling river and admiring the natural beauty of Idaho!


Red Lion Templin's on the River also has an indoor pool, a fitness center, and easy access to a private beach.

Other amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi, complimentary bike rentals, and complimentary parking!

On-site is Mallards Restaurant and Lounge, as well as a little convenience store to purchase snacks and drinks.

In addition to the numerous services and amenities, another great reason to stay at Red Lion Templin's on the River is the ideal location.  Just 35 minutes from Spokane International Airport and 15 minutes to Downtown Couer d'Alene, the hotel is also just a very short drive to popular Post Falls attractions Treaty Rock and Falls Park.

Despite the renovations and the number of people at the hotel, we had a very pleasant stay, and it was surprisingly quiet even though there was a lot going on!  We were never bothered by any of the painting or construction, and we never dealt with any noise or disturbances from other guests.

Service was excellent, the views were gorgeous, and the location was convenient.

I hope we can stay longer the next time!
