WestCoast Grand Hotel at the Park P336
 
We were in this hotel last summer (2000). It was remodeling the lobby. More than a year later it appeared to be still remodeling!

Our room in the Tower was fairly compact but it did not feel cramped for two people. The view of the Spokane River from the 8th floor was very nice.

Several quality control items down graded the rating for this hotel. The bath soap was missing. The shower head was much too noisy and the tub drained slowly. The room service menu/order sheet was used. Some of the fixtures and picture frames were in need of dusting.

The quality of food at the Atrium Cafe was a pleasant surprise. My Seafood Linguini had clams, a couple of really nice prawns, scallops, salmon and white fish cooked in a tomato saffron broth topped with freshly grated Parmesan. The glass of Caterina (a Spokane winery) Chardonnay went nicely with the linguini.

My wife had the West Coast Grand at the Park Chopped Salad. It had a load of Dungeness crab meat, cucumbers, olives, bacon, artichoke hearts, bleu cheese, eggs, avacado, tomatos, and fresh field greens. The salad was served with a mustard seed vinegarette. The New England clam chowder was excellent.
