SPOKANE, Wash. — The Historic Davenport Hotel is marking a significant milestone as it celebrates 110 years of service alongside a grand opening this weekend. After months of renovations, the hotel’s lobby is now complete and features a brand-new coffee shop and bar.
“It feels like it was always supposed to be here. The materials, the colors, it just feels like it fits here,” said Melissa Green, Vice President and Managing Director of The Davenport Collection.
The new lobby bar is designed as a welcoming space for guests to share conversations, sip cocktails, and enjoy appetizers—a vision inspired by Louis Davenport himself from a century ago.
“In the lobby bar, we had the thought of building it to look like it’s been here since 1914. For the menu, we looked at items that would have been on the menu back then,” explained Patrick Dahms, Director of Culinary for The Davenport Collection.
During the day, another new space, the Emporium, will offer coffee and an array of peanut brittle treats.
