Fodor's Expert Review Inn at Gig Harbor

The city's largest hotel is a four-story midrange property that looks and feels a bit like a cookie-cutter chain, but many of its rooms have Mt. Rainier views, and suites have a fireplace or jetted tub. The Heritage restaurant serves classic American fare with Northwest flair. Browse through the little shop, which is jam-packed with good-quality regional crafts, treats, and local beers and wines. The inn is a major base for business travelers driving into Tacoma and Bremerton.
