Hotel Restaurants You'd Actually Eat In: The Inn at Langley

Where: 400 First St. [map], Langley, WA, United States, 98260

The reputation of hotel restaurants as sad, overpriced affairs is quickly falling away as some talented chefs make the eateries destinations of their own. This week, HotelChatter contributor Katherine Spiers is taking us to some of the best hotel restaurants in the world.

Washington state has great natural products, from fruit to fish, and the Inn keeps the menu pretty local and seasonal: looking at today's seasonal menu, the only thing that couldn't have originated on Whidbey Island itself seems to be the coconut and mango in the dessert; you'll dine overlooking the herb garden.
