Honeymoon at the Davenport Hotel: what to book and when
For a honeymoon at the Davenport Hotel, book a room with a king bed (Room, 1 King Bed or Room (Davenport)) or the Junior Suite, with Sofa bed, Corner for more space and a seating area; reserve spa treatments at Davenport Spa & Salon and a dinner at Palm Court Grill or cocktails at the Peacock Room Lounge. Aim for late spring–early fall (May–September) for best weather and book restaurants, spa appointments, and any event spaces at least 2–4 weeks ahead; for weekends or special dates, book earlier.

Which room to book for a honeymoon
Choose based on how much private space you want. For a classic in-hotel room, the Room, 1 King Bed and Room (Davenport) are the standard king-bed options; both are appropriate if you plan to spend most time exploring downtown or using hotel public spaces.
If you want more living space for late-night conversations or a second sleeping option, book the Junior Suite, with Sofa bed, Corner — it includes a king bed and a double sofa bed and gives a separate seating area that works well for relaxing after spa time or a long day of sightseeing.
- Room, 1 King Bed — standard king or can be 2 Queen Beds (check availability when booking).
- Room (Davenport) — a king-bed option in the historic building.
- Junior Suite, with Sofa bed, Corner — 1 King Bed plus 1 Double Sofa Bed; more space for private lounging.
| Room type | Why it works for honeymooners |
|---|---|
| Room, 1 King Bed | Classic king-bed room; easier on budget while still in the historic hotel |
| Room (Davenport) | Historic-building king option for guests wanting a traditional Davenport room |
| Junior Suite, with Sofa bed, Corner | Separate seating area and sofa bed for extra space and comfort |
When to visit and how timing affects your stay
Late June through early September offers the warmest, driest weather in Spokane, with more reliable outdoor options like Riverfront Park and Centennial Trail nearby. Shoulder seasons (April–May and September–October) give milder temperatures and fewer crowds.
If your honeymoon includes indoor-focused activities (spa, dining, the hotel’s heated indoor pool), winter dates are practical though Spokane winters are colder and snowier.
- Peak weather window: late June–early September.
- Best combo of mild weather and smaller crowds: April–May or September–October.
- Wintry option: indoors-first honeymoon (spa, cocktail lounges, hotel pool).
| When | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Late June–Early September | Warm, dry days — best for walking Riverfront Park and outdoor excursions |
| April–May or September–October | Mild weather and fewer crowds — good for sightseeing and quieter restaurants |
| Winter (Dec–Feb) | Colder, potentially snowy — plan indoor activities (spa, lounges, pool) |
Dining and where to reserve for romantic meals
Reserve at Palm Court Grill for a formal breakfast, afternoon tea on weekends, or a dinner in the hotel’s historic lobby. The venue serves breakfast, lunch and dinner; check available times and make reservations by phone or OpenTable.
For cocktails or an intimate evening drink, book a table at Peacock Room Lounge (stained-glass ceiling) or the Lobby Bar for a quieter nightcap. Emporium is the quick option for coffee and pastries during the day.
- Palm Court Grill — breakfast through dinner; afternoon tea on weekends; reservations available by phone or OpenTable.
- Peacock Room Lounge — evening cocktails under a stained-glass ceiling; evening hours extend later on weekends.
- Lobby Bar — pre-dinner drinks or relaxed nightcap in the historic lobby.
- Emporium — artisan La Colombe coffee, pastries, and grab-and-go items.
