A charming place with a nice restaurant, which was unfortunately only open on weekends. Coffee, too, was only available on 2 of the 5 days I stayed there and Index itself has little or no other amenities. I would suggest they put small coffee stations in the rooms!

I love to stay at the Bush House Inn while traveling along Highway 2. Index is a really wonderful place with amazing history and you’ll wake up surrounded by mountains and the Index Wall. The Inn has charming rooms with very comfortable beds and linens. This is an experience for people who want to stay in a beautifully renovated historic building and enjoy a quiet and calm atmosphere. They do have an elevator on site to the second floor. The second floor great room is a community space with comfy leather sofa seating and a television but it’s also a wonderful space for reading or playing games or puzzles. There is an upper level sun deck and a wonderful front porch as additional relaxing spaces. The restaurant offers a wonderful Northwest selection for every palate and there is a bar and coffee shop (serves breakfast pastries and hot items) on site, as well. The shared bathrooms are always wonderfully appointed with extra shower soaps and exceptionally pressured hot water. I don’t know this for a fact but I think the floors are also heated? There are several trains (Amtrak included) that go by through the night so if you are a very light sleeper I would suggest earplugs for restful sleep. Again, this is a historic building in a town with rich history. If you get a chance to visit the area and you want to experience something special, I can’t recommend Bush House Inn enough. (Book Room 8 for the best morning views!)

Beautiful and cozy Inn! The shared bathroom was not a problem as I was the only one using it as other reviewers pointed out. It was a really nice and clean bathroom. I knew about the train noise and there were a few that went by until 12am and then one at 4am. If the Inn offered a noise machine or earplugs that would go a long way. My room (#2) was also facing the tracks so that didn't help. When I checked in, I was told there would be coffee and pastries available at 8am, but the young lady at the register first told me there were no pastries on Fridays then perhaps because I looked puzzled, she corrected herself to say that she had not yet put them in the oven. Oh well. Nonetheless she made a really tasty latte! I would consider staying here again.

Very clean and cozy room. I stayed in the room with the private bath and big tub. I think I was in room 5 and I could hear the person next to me coughing throughout the night. It was an adjoining room and the sound just pours right in. It was pretty frustrating. Just a warning to my fellow lite sleepers! The staff was great, the food was average. Overall a pretty great stay besides the noise from next door.

Beautifully renovated historical hotel with a super friendly welcome. Our room was spotless and really comfortable. There is some train noise during the night but it didn’t bother us that much (and would have been solved by ear plugs). The coffee and muffins from the bakery downstairs were sublime.

Man, this place is my absolute favorite. We’ve been here so many times and every time I fall more in love with the area. I love that they don’t have tv’s, you get to actually disconnect a bit. The bathrooms are newly remodeled and very nice. Can’t wait to come back.

The only constructive feedback I have is that…they should consider going through the games and cards in the common area room and throw away the ones that have missing pieces and the decks that are missing cards. I brought a book so it wasn’t a big deal and I forgot my card deck at home. Wasn’t end of the world. And second, I wish they would replace the cushions on the furniture out front. Not even the furniture, just the cushions. I could sit there for hours and they are in very sad condition.

Beautiful building, service needs improvement

The Inn has been beautifully restored and the styling of the spotlessly clean room is in keeping with the age of the building. Having a private bathroom was really helpful. A cafe is next door, convenient for coffee or something to eat - but once the cafe is closed there are no facilities for making a hot drink either in the room, lobby or common room. We had to wait some time after the official time to check in.
