Spokane | USA | - Double Tree - Hilton Hotel...

The 375-room Doubletree Hotel Spokane-City Center in Spokane, Washington is located in the heart of Downtown Spokane along the Spokane River.

The hotel embedded in the middle of the Spokane Center complex, surrounded by the Spokane Convention Center, Group Health Exhibit Hall, and the INB Performing Arts Center, making it a popular place for business travelers, and is directly connected to the venues through a 2nd floor skybridge. Renovated in 1996, the hotel was originally constructed in 1974 as a Sheraton brand hotel to accomodate the huge influx of visitors Expo `74, but construction delays cost the hotel dearly as it missed the opening of the World's Fair. Its design was heavily influenced by Bernard M. “Kop” Kopczynski, who received the AIA Spokane 2005 Master Craftsmanship Award. He also influenced many of the other Expo `74 buildings around the hotel, including many of the pavilions, and the IMAX Theater.
