Detailed Reviews
I loved my stay at the Finlen hotel. The rooms are older, but this was a plus for me as I appreciated the older furniture and style of the room. The receptionists were very nice. The free parking was great and easy to access from the hotel. If I visited Butte again I would definitely go back to the Finlen Hotel.
Cons for the property are mostly that the bar/restaurants in the hotel were closed while we were visiting. It's a shame as they seemed very nice.

This hotel is right out of the history books in
Butte. All original and full of pictures from back in the day including pictures of celebrities who stayed here. The rooms are nice considering the era with some modern upgrades such as cable T.V. and portable AC units. Just a couple floors of the 9 story building remain a hotel, the rest are used as apartments. The downtown location makes it nice to wonder the streets of historic Butte with remnants of mining all around. Close to several restaurants all in walking distance. If you like history and want to experience what this place was like back its boom i would definitely recommend a stay here.

The Finlen Hotel purports be in be an historic, renovated property. Historic it is with grand bones but the update is a slap dash affair. Flat screen TVs and coffee makers in great profusion but the heating/AC system is antiquated. No central AC. Rather a penquinio serves for cool air, or as an info card states, open a window. The bath room is tiny with little space for toiletries. On the more mundane side, no water or glasses in the room.

In Butte, all the modern chain hotels are south of town, along with the chain restaurants. If you want to stay downtown and walk to bars and restaurants this appeared to be the best choice. There is a motor lodge and an old hotel, we stayed in the hotel. While it certainly is past its glory days as a place to be, it has been very well maintained. It is one of the cleanest rooms I have ever rented. If so, why only three stars? Well, it's just kinda old and empty, no people about, no cocktail lounge, just kinda frozen in time. Also, there was no way to control the heat in our room or to open a window so it was very hard to sleep. But the location downtown was good if you like local food and drink.

The Finlen was was top notch at one time. No longer. The lobby is lovely but that is about it.
Difficult to find the bathroom light... it was a small switch above the sink. Had to grope around in the dark to find it. Talking about lights... the only lamps were on ONE bedside table and the other on the desk. No overhead lights. However there was a bright naked lightbulb showing through the window from another room that was kitty corner directly into our window and even closing the blinds did not keep that light out.
Tiny room. Bathroom falling apart.
The air conditioner sounded like a locomotive was going through the room.
The bed was comfortable.
Very expensive mistake staying there!

Overall a nice historic hotel with reasonably spacious rooms. Looking at pics of the exterior, one might assume that all rooms have a nice view, however our window just looked out into another brick wall. Air-conditioning is a portable unit that stands on the floor and a bit loud. I think that for the nightly fee, which is relatively high for this area, they should include at least a continental breakfast instead of just coffee. Parking is great.

We had a great stay at Hotel Finlen for Father's Day Weekend. It is in a wonderful location, walking distance to all the hot spots in Historical Downtown Butte, Berkley Pit, resturants and bars. The front desk was very helpful when we needed a roll away and a stop in at the bar, was a great way place to have a night cap! We will be back!

Cool historic hotel with great location in uptown Butte, within walking distance of good restaurants and historic district. We stayed in the tower, not the motel. Check-in was supposed to be at 3 but our room was not ready for another 30 minutes, even though the hotel was not full and we hardly saw anyone else. This was not a bid deal for us, but worth noting. Also, as 119ashlynm commented, the small floor A/C cannot cool the room at all and Butte can get hot in the summer months. Despite running constantly and set to 68 degrees F, the A/C never managed to cool the room below 77 degrees. The room was uncomfortably warm and we had a poor nights sleep.

I recently had occasion to stay at Hotel Finlen. I stayed in room 157. The bed was awfully soft, the tub/shower diverted did not work sending most of the water to the tub, and the bathroom sink filled up with waste water. There is no thermostat in the room so you have to manually adjust the radiator vales both in the bedroom and in the bathroom. It is also located in a run-down section of Butte.

The Finlen is Butt'e's historic hotel, built in the late 1920s. We thoroughly enjoyed out 2 night stay there. The front desk staff (especially Holly) went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. Professional staff makes all the difference! The comfortable king room met all of our needs. Food and drink options are within easy walking distance. Looking for a hip, modern hotel? Well, the FInlen might not meet your expectations. If you are looking for a step back in time, personalized service, and a great downtown location, then the Finlen will most likely be a good choice. Heads and shoulders above the run of the mill chain lodging down by the I-90 freeway. And once again, thank you Holly!!!

No, unfortunately we do not have a hot tub.
Unfortunately there is not. The rooms maintain their historic quality and therefore their smaller/historic size.
We accept pet in the Motor Inn only. We unfortunately do not allow pets in the historic Hotel.
Thank you for thinking of the Finlen for your trip to next year's An Ri Ra. We have very limited availability right now because we are the host hotel for the festival's entertainers, but we do have some rooms. I would book fairly soon as the rooms not taken by the festival will slowly fill up between now and next summer.
