When you attend a meeting in Spokane, Washington, everything you need (or want) is all around you. Your hotel is close to the convention center, the convention center is close to great bars and restaurants, and it’s all close to unparalleled Pacific Northwest nature.
The Convention Center, Connected Hotels and Riverfront Park
The main meeting area in Spokane is located right on the riverfront downtown. The Spokane Convention Center offers 300,000 sq. ft. of meeting space, including a theater, ballrooms, a performing arts center and four outdoor spaces.
The Davenport Grand Hotel and DoubleTree by Hilton both connect to the convention center—making the morning commute as simple as can be—and both hotels offer meeting spaces of their own.
The star of the show, however, is Riverfront Park, which connects 100 acres of green space to the convention center via the Centennial Trail. The park is perfect for a quick breath of fresh air, a leisurely stroll or some quality networking time with colleagues.
The Historic Downtown District
As the unofficial “meeting district,” downtown is home to most of Spokane’s venues and they all feature plenty of coffee shops, lunch spots, breweries or cocktail bars nearby. This area also showcases Spokane’s stunning and eclectic architecture, a shopping center and great views of Spokane Falls, including the Numerica SkyRide, which lets you ride in a gondola over the rapids.
The Pacific Northwest Nature
Spokane’s best feature is its mix of city amenities with natural beauty. Whether at Riverfront Park, minutes away in Riverside State Park or in the surrounding area, your attendees can get their fill of rest and relaxation to go along with their meeting. It’s not uncommon for people to add an extra day or two to their trip so they can spend some time out on a lake, on hiking and biking trails or on the slopes. After all, they have no shortage of options, with 76 lakes and five ski resorts within two hours of downtown.
