The Centennial Restaurant & Bar - Spokane (WA)

1 /5 Mary Mattingly: Our family makes Spokane our yearly reunion spot. We have typically stayed in an Airbnb. This time we decided on a hotel. Big mistake! Ill just speak for my part of the family. Our room was not up to snuff. I was able to get some fresh sheets from housekeeping as the ones left for us had a yellow goo on them. It hadnt gone through to the mattress. There was a chemical smell in our room. I dont know if it was a cleaning product, but given the bed situation, its unlikely. We were there during the week and ate twice in the bar. Our server, Carrie or Kelly, was a nightmare. She has brown hair and a mole on her face. Her tone was super rude and put out. Almost a condescending tone. She looked and sounded miserable. We kind of just settled up and left but we were really hoping to hand out, eat, drink and enjoy our time. We may stay at the Historic Davenport next year. Everyone told us that they have the most amazing service all around.

2 /5 Tamara Thomas: We were never brought silverware my parents received their food an hour in. 2 hours After ordering we were brought our check however I never received my food. The server asked me if Id still like it? shortly bringing out my apatizer apologize saying it wasnt my order but an extra that had been sitting in the back. Graciously I wasnt charged. The hotel is lovely but the dining was less than desirable and pricy for the experience.

1 /5 K Reese: For reference, my normal review mode is to give top stars to great service or to say nothing. If I take time to give a negative review, it means it was B.A.D. I recently took my best friend there for birthday lunch. SERVICE: We went in the bar because it was the only place offered to have lunch. We waited and nobody showed up for quite a while. We were surprised there wasnt service anymore in the atrium part where they used to have delicious lunch and salads and such. I kid you not, the server was so overtly disinterested that it almost felt like a comedy sketch like, "yeah what do you want!" She looked around the room and nodded. We seemed like a bother to her, even though there were no other customers seated at tables and only two people on bar stools. FOOD: We got pork tacos and the meat was hard and super dry. To moisten it up, I asked for extra salsa. And get this; the server said that they did not have salsa, even though there was salsa on the taco. DECOR NIGHTMARE: We walked in and it is so poorly decorated and does not fit the Davenport brand at all. It has a feeling like a aging 90s bar, but not in a retro, fun, or fresh way. They spent millions using the colors that are on their way out, very cool blacks, depressing greys and dull white with no breakup of anything. See the picture that Ill add, it is not black and white. It is what it looks like in there. The massive atrium that used to light your eyes up with greenery and warmth in a garden-like feel now is like an outdated government building. SAD Wow, I was so excited to see the updates of this beloved hotel thats gone through different iterations through the years. From Red Lion to DoubleTree to whatever names they had, it always kept a sense of class and charm, cohesive with a garden like feel inside and out from entry to pool. At this hotel, I have attended and hosted events, celebrated milestones and dined countless times, from Windows of the Seasons to the former Garden Cafe to the lovely event spaces, and lodging: this place has always been so special to me. Four final reference, Im not an old fogey, I might eat one night at the Hogwash Whiskey Den, and go another morning to Italia Trattoria or hit the Satellite Diner. I like variety and can roll with and truly enjoy change. This just happens to not be a good one. Bummer

3 /5 Jason Nichols: Food..decent taste, underwhelming in choices, kind of basic, example sausages were small and portion of just 2, eggs werent right (wife said they came back up a short time later), mimosas overpriced for quantity Service.. werent staffed for morning rush, servers seemed rushed and uncoordinated, we arrived and sat 5 or more minutes before the next table, they were served faster but they were friendly Atmosphere.. nice redo since the last time I was here (was red lion), seat yourself, exterior needs some cleaning but otherwise nice place. Front desk staff said our room had a balcony (looked everywhere but no luck finding one) not that wed use it in December. TV in bedroom flat on wall at an awkward angle to the bed.

3 /5 Josh Foley: The good: the staff was very friendly and relatively attentive considering there were not a lot of them. The bad: the food reminds me of Dennys but with less flavor. Most items felt about $5 more expensive than they probably should have been. Our pepperoni pizza only had 1.5 pieces of pepperoni per slice, but otherwise was ok. The ugly: overheard the staff say they had run out of soap to wash the water glasses and it more wouldn’t arrive for a day or two. Hopefully hot water does the job :/
