My husband and I stayed at The Modern Hotel Friday May 18th and we loved it. We were in town one night to pickup a car and rrive home and I researched what I thought was a really neat hotel to stay at. I wasn't disappointed! Rooms were outfitted really retro and were clean. The bathroom was smaller but very... More

The retro decor is really fun and we loved the fabulous atmosphere when the sun went down and all the blue lights came on!! The happy chatter around the... More

Our company uses this hotel constantly for clients and guests and we are never disappointed. Our clients enjoy staying here and request it every time they are in town. Not only is the staff very accommodating and great to work with, the hotel is fun and "modern". It is perfect for personal and business needs. Thank you Modern for being... More

This was an excellent hotel stay! The hotel and its rooms are all fitted to modern style architecture, and are done very well. The beds are very comfortable, they provide alarm clocks that have iPod fittings, and the showers you might find a little different, though my hotel mate didn't like it (but I thought it was a nice change...

A tip, if you're planning on staying on a Saturday night....don't get a room on the ground floor facing the parking lot. Around 12:30 people started leaving the bar and because of the location of the bed, your head is going to be about 6 feet from a passageway where everyone who is 'lit up' is going to walk by....

We found the Modern to be comfortable, clean, and quite fun. The restaurant and bar served very good food and had a good selection of drinks. We would surely stay here again. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful.

A great deal if you're looking for a comfortable, clean and quiet place. The staff was energetic and friendly - you could tell that they really like working there. The minimalist decor was refreshing without the typical insipid piece of artwork looming over the bed. The breakfast bar had fantastic coffee, juice, very tasty bagels, yogurt and fresh granola.

Once you get over the fact that it's a converted Travelodge and that the doors open right to the street, it's a very good place. It's not too far from downtown Boise (15 min walk, maximum) and each room has a minimalist European feel to it, which reminded me of places in Amsterdam and Oslo. Definitely not what I expected...

My wife and I stayed here one night based on a high recommendation from a friend. Very cool concept and it almost works. We liked the design of the rooms but they just didn't have a good balance, especially the bathroom. The style is high end but it somehow clashes with the fact that the hotel used to be a... More
