Our Story
The Modern Hotel is a re-animated Travelodge located in Downtown Boise's Linen District in between 13th and 14th streets on Grove Street. The Linen District is named after the Linen Building – a historic building that was originally constructed in 1910 as the American Laundry Building.
The Modern provides easy access to Downtown Boise’s restaurants, bars, shops, entertainment, parks and attractions. If you like you can take one of our bikes out on the Boise Greenbelt, which is just a short walk or ride from the hotel.
At today’s Modern Hotel, a rich history still radiates amidst Boise’s unique, vibrant culture. The Modern’s bar and restaurant has classic and original crafted cocktails, a talented chef, music and a courtyard with stone fire pits. The space also features 39 intelligently designed rooms with high-tech finishes, making traveling easy and low-stress.
City-centered, yet close to whitewater, mountains, and rolling hills. The Modern Hotel and Apartments are a home-away-from-home for travelers who value stylish design, the best entertainment, a sociable atmosphere, and a ridiculously comfortable bed.
