Hotel Planter

A nice basic historic hotel. Reading the provided history helped us appreciate all the place has gone through and the planning that was put in place during its initial construction. The staff wasn’t particularly friendly, but that was okay. Very little sound insulation but not bad. Overall, a very pleasant experience, and we’d definitely stay here again given the other options we saw around town.

We enjoyed our stay… it was very clean… the staff very helpful and friendly and the bed was super comfy!

Nice staff, free water bottles, and nice location. However if it wasnt for a coupon I got on Living Social, I would not have spent full price for the room. Very small, old tv, and creaky bed.

This is a cute little place and la Conner is a quiet quaint town. The building is very old and isn’t this fancy place but it is historic. The walls are thin and you can hear everything going on and also feel like everyone can hear you. It is right in town so the location is great, parking is terrible however. A big thing for anyone weak, handicapped, older in age, etc, there is no elevator and you have to haul your luggage up two huge flights of stairs to even get to the check in desk. There’s no bell boy, nothing. If the price was right, I would stay here again but ultimately id rather try another place out next time.

Charming, clean, impeccably decorated, tastefully furnished, gracious staff, can’t say enough about this refurbished hotel. Totally loved our stay & would definitely return. What a gem.

My wife and I stayed at this facility a couple of Months ago and I must say that it was a very pleasant experience from the time we checked in to the time of our departure. Not the most cosmetic on the outside but certainly nice and comfortable rooms. We stayed in room 6, with a view on the street side (Great people watching). I would most certainly stay there again and will do so before the summer ends. Lastly on the way home I received a call from one of the staff members (all were very nice). I was informed that I had left my Nook, it was mailed to me within the week with a note «The shipment is on us please come again! With that type of thoughtful service I most certainly will!

We had a groupon deal and really enjoyed our stay! Nice and quiet with a view of the courtyard, nice natural light, friendly service, very clean, not smelly/​stuffy, and cozy. Love the tall ceilings. Very surprised by the negative reviews! Perhaps people expect more than what’s advertised. It’s a historic building that’s been well taken care of, not a fancy hotel with all the amenities. I would come back.

Old and historic, yet it has been kept up nicely with all the conveniences that we could ask for. Very friendly and helpful staff. We will be back.
La Conner is a quaint, quiet, and romantic town, and the Planter is the perfect romantic stay.

Charming historic building. Clean and unique, hand-​made early 1900’s windows and molding. The town is pretty neat, everyone is nice and friendly. This was only 90 minutes from our home in Kirkland, but you definitely get the feeling you are on a whole different place.

We got a deal on Groupon so that’s why we chose this place, and on first impression it wasn’t bad at all. I thought the décor was charming — and not in a motel/​hotel kind of way — and the big windows facing the street awarded some good people/​rain watching. Unfortunately we were directly across from the front desk, and with no music playing in the «lobby», we felt our every word was overheard by the staff. It was a weird, quiet place that didn’t feel private at all, but almost as if we were sleeping in Grandmas guest room. At night we tossed and turned on the very uncomfortable «mattress» (we later found out is was just a pillow topper, not a proper mattress) and stuck to the synthetic sheets that made us sweat even though it wasn’t hot in the room at all.
The good stuff: The bathroom was cute (though no bathtub), the view was good and La Conner was interesting enough — especially the pub across the street ;)
But I wouldn’t go back to this hotel — not even for the $ 69 we spent through Groupon.

Beautiful, neatly kept historic hotel in La Conner. It’s not modern, but its beautifully kept and serviced. Lovely courtyard, cosy rooms and great friendly staff. Tea/​coffee served in the lobby all day. This is the ONLY place to stay in La Conner for sure. Beautiful high ceilings and lovely bathroom.

Okay… don’t kill the messenger. These reviews are very subjective. This place was booked for us by my friend. If you are a fan of the color dusty rose and blonde wood with box style tv’s, no microwave, no mini fridge, no ice maker… then this place is for you. We didn’t make it through the night. We parked. It was late and the key (a REAL HONEST TO GOODNESS KEY!) for the room was left for us in a «secret» hiding place… where you wipe your feet… and we proceeded up to our room. I wondered if this place is haunted… the stairs creaked… and it had a very historic fragrance to it. I couldn’t stop giggling about the fact that I could jump from the bed into the Jacuzzi tub. The manager was really nice about the fact that we found the room not to be «us»…and allowed us to return the key and checkout the same night without penalty. $ 160.00 +…in my opinion was a bit much for the room. But then again, we were there at the tail end of the busy season, so I guess I understand. My friend was surprised when he saw the room as he said the photos were kind of deceiving. Anyway, the room wasn’t totally bad, it just lacked a lot of the modern amenities that we’ve become accustomed to. Oh. it did offer complimentary wi-​fi. Bonus note… it is located kitty corner to the La Conner Tavern where they have a very unique character of a bartender. She’s a real kick. :) (Drink until the room looks good?)

Sweet, clean hotel in a great little getaway town. Rooms are on the cozy side but the towels and toiletries are first rate.

The TV is old. and there is no Air Conditioning. but we didn’t go to watch TV and the AC was not an issue in mid June.
This is clean and nicely restored historic hotel that is very romantic.
We stayed in the Deluxe Queen Suite. It has its own 2+ person jacuzzi (The largest in-​room tub like this in the several Western WA Hotels we have stayed) and there was a pair of campaign glasses next to the tub when we arrived.
A clean and classic bathroom with shower. Very comfortable bed.
It is up a long flight of stairs and has not been retrofitted with an elevator. so it was nice to have been offered help with out bags as I have bad knees. Very nice staff.
Its walking distance to great shops and good food on the waterfront of La Conner.
My wife and I had a wonderful time and will be back.
My only suggestion to the owners would be to add some kind of small music system with a plug in for MP3 players (not just iPods please) We used the small speakers on my smart phone for music.
