What guests think

At Finlen Hotel and Motor Inn, reviews highlight a beautifully preserved historic property with a striking lobby, generally clean rooms, comfortable beds, and a walkable Uptown Butte location with convenient free parking and a popular on-site lounge.

Rooms often feel small with compact bathrooms and vintage layouts, and several guests report thin walls or street noise. Air conditioning and heating can be inconsistent, with portable or limited units that leave some rooms warm and some guests relying on open windows. On-site amenities are modest for a historic hotel; there’s no regular restaurant or breakfast, and most hotel rooms lack fridges and microwaves, though many diners and bars are nearby. Expect character, cleanliness, and convenience, with tradeoffs in space and modern amenities.

This was a well-known hotel around Montana in its day, the nicest in what was the very wealthy city of Butte. This is the only building we saw in downtown Butte that has been restored. Only two floors have guest rooms (there are additional rooms in the attached motor lodge). Our two-queen bed room actually consisted of two rooms (a bed in each) and an extra half bath. Secure parking (at no additional cost) is provided. This is my second stay at the Finlen in the past year. If you haven't been to Butte, it is easily the most interesting town in Montana. Once known as the "richest hill on Earth," it provides plenty of signs of its once incredible wealth, including many beautiful buildings in the downtown area. If you are after sights, be sure to see the Berkely Pit and the mine tour at the Mining Museum. Anyway, we can highly recommen the Finlen!

They have done a marvelous job of maintaining the historic integrity of ! Old hotel yet integrated modern services. Parking was goid. Checkin was great. We were on the third floor but the elevator was readily available and quick. We always haul more items than we need and they had readily available carts. The room was small but very clean and well kept. Air conditioning is orovide by a floor portabke unit vented rhrough the window which took up more room but was effective. The ceiling fan, which was a nice touch, along with the fan kept the room comfortable. Water pressure was goid and water hot. Although towels were adequate they were not large nor very fluffy. Bed, pillows and linen were asequate. I did appreciate the set up for clock and lightscwhichnorovided lots of plug in very electric devices. Now to the diwn side. There is no mini fridge or microwave in the room. Also there is no restaurant. No pool no fitness center. If you want a unique exoerience in a historic hotel this is a great place. If you want modern coveniences find a chain motel. In our travels we found motel prices higher in Butte. Also I was disappointed in the historic downtown. A lot if beutiful well maintain old building that are unoccupied.

Parking was convenient - right next to the building and free. The lady at the front desk was very nice. But we were disappointed to learn that even though Expedia said our room would have a fridge and microwave, it turned out not to. The lady at the front desk explained that since the hotel is over 100 years old, it's not set up for most rooms to have fridges and microwaves...only 4 of the rooms have it, and they were all occupied so she couldn't switch us to one of those rooms. So, if having a fridge and microwave is a must, I would not advise staying here. Otherwise, it's a fun place to stay if you are looking for a cool historic experience. Also, they do have fridges and microwaves in their sister property motel that is adjacent, but just not in the hotel rooms (other than the 4 rooms that do).

I grew up in Butte, but since moved away. I've always wanted to stay at the Finlen; it's a historic Butte landmark! We stayed in the Motor Inn behind the main tower, but the room was very spacious and immaculate. It had a great little vanity desk, a mini fridge, coffee maker, microwave, desk, and lounge chair. My little boy was very excited about it. The man at the desk the morning that we checked out was very friendly, and allowed me to bring the little guy up on the mezzanine to see the hotel, which he was absolutely enamored by! Next time, I will try to book in the tower just for the sake of the view at night, but overall a great experience and stay.

Really fun old hotel. We loved wandering around all the areas we could see. Room large, clean and comfortable. Only issue was the little portable a/c unit was under powered so the room couldn’t cool down enough for us on the hot summer night so it was too hot. There was also a loud high school reunion that was loud in our hotel room, but didn’t matter too much for us as we were up late anyway. Was a great experience… just needed better a/c for the room.

We would definitely stay there again as it’s a fantastic hotel with great history. Brilliant location in the old town. One person couldn’t spoil our trip to this beautiful place. We were disappointed that the bar restaurant was closed on Monday and Tuesday as we were told it’s well worth a visit.

It's an old hotel, celebrating its 100th year, and the lobby is so Charming and beautiful. The rooms are kept up nicely and the linens are crisp and clean. It's fun to stay in Old downtown Butte and walk around

Staff needs retraining on ADA policy. Per the ADA: In situations where it is not obvious that the dog is a service animal, staff may ask only two specific questions: (1) is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? and (2) what work or task has the dog been trained to perform? Staff are not allowed to request any documentation for the dog, require that the dog demonstrate its task, or inquire about the nature of the person’s disability. I was asked for paperwork, when I informed the person working the front desk that that’s not a thing, she assured me it was and that they had looked it up, I admittedly was curt (and apologized for that) as someone with a disability this is exhausting to deal with. I actually had planned to have a few drinks and dinner in the restaurant, but felt unwelcome enough I just went to my room. https://www.ada.gov/resources/service-animals-faqs/
