Modern Hotel and Bar

The Modern Hotel is a former travel lodge – recast as a mid-century modern gem – located in downtown Boise’s Linen District.

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.

Our apartments are a block north of the main hotel in the Watercooler Building at 1401 W Idaho Street. These fully furnished, second floor apartments come with all the amenities to make your visit feel more like home. All kitchen and household appliances, including a refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, washer and dryer and cleaning supplies are provided. You’ll enjoy free parking, WiFi, basic cable and Smart TV apps. Housekeeping service during your stay incurs an additional fee.

City-centered, yet close to whitewater, mountains, and rolling hills: The Modern Hotel and Apartments is a home-away-from-home for travelers who value stylish design, the best entertainment, a sociable atmosphere, and a ridiculously comfortable bed.

The Modern Hotel and Apartments are located in Downtown Boise’s Linen District on 14th 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 main hotel is at 1314 W Grove Street and the apartments are in the Watercooler Building at 1401 W Idaho Street. Both provide easy access to many of 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.
