The Chrysalis Inn & Spa Bellingham, Curio Collection by Hilton

"Top notch customer service! I had to attend a conference and the chances of me getting a room on day two were slim to none. I checked out the morning of day 2, they allowed me to leave my car while I attended the conference and found another hotel. They provided a few contacts and the manager called within a couple hours to let me know they had a cancellation. They went above and beyond to keep me on their radar while they worked hard to find me a room, at their facility! The rooms are beautiful, restaurant was yummy and the service was beyond what I expected. I highly recommend Chrysalis and due to my spectacular experience, I fully intend to stay there again when I am in the area! Highly recommend!"

"The hotel is perfect for family, even if the room is small. The room we stayed has really big and nice bath tub, so my 2 small kids enjoyed playing together. You can walk around the hotel, as it’s connected to the trails. Recommend!"

"Absolutely thrilled with our stay at this hotel! The impeccable service, luxurious amenities, and attention to detail made it a truly an unforgettable experience. From the stylish and modern decor to the delicious dining options at the in-house restaurant Keenan's, every aspect exceeded our expectations. I can confidently say this is our go-to choice for a luxury staycation hotel in Bellingham, WA. We felt right at home. Our room had an electric fireplace, a tub that can fit two people and a reading nook by the big window with a partial ocean view. Worth the money! And I just wanted to add that their spa is also a must-visit. I booked a facial for myself and my husband booked us a massage later that evening and it was heaven. What I am most grateful for is you are welcomed to use the facilities including the relaxing steam room. The locker rooms are very well-maintained. It may be smaller in comparison to spas I've visited but I would say they are always booked up and the atmosphere is quite intimate. The in-house spa practitioners as well as front house staff are very sweet, welcoming and knowledgeable. I believe the inspiration behind the hotel is a relaxing getaway. Although there is no gym in the vicinity, they partnered up with a local training center in town and they will provide free day passes. Now let's talk about the train. A lot of people can be very sensitive to sounds but my husband and I didn't mind at all. They are pretty upfront about it. They also offer sound machines or a fan for white noise when sleeping and also ear plugs are provided. My husband and I cannot wait to stay here again. So take our word for it and give this beautiful hotel a try. You won't regret it."

"Really enjoyed my overnight getaway here at Chrysalis. Make sure you spend a bit more to get the full bay view rooms, it's a million dollar view! Spacious, modern, clean rooms. Will be back. Amazing place if you love trains ... you can almost see the conductor :>. And the walk on the pier ... heavenly. I want to retire in Fairhaven, the bay is so beautiful!"

"Working hard to be objective here- High points- View- corner room. Proximity to water. Free parking,(tight). Spacious room. Mini bar isn’t stupid price. Small fridge. Large shower and jetted tub. Two TVs and fireplace. Opportunities- Noise, of course the tracks are literally right under the window. It wasn’t terrible but it’s not quiet by any stretch. Pretty pricey for the train proximity. Lastly, many hotels, restaurants ask if the reservation is for something special. Was never asked so I have to assume they didn’t care that it was our 40th anniversary and we chose to spend the evening with them. I had originally reserved a place over the mountains at another place but the weather made me pause. They asked immediately about a special occasion. Reservations didn’t ask. Front desk didn’t ask. IMO that’s a huge miss. Will we go back? Probably. We’ve been previously and enjoyed the time. Sometimes it’s the things that cost you nothing that make people return. My total score would be 4.5-4.6."
