Top Seattle Hotel Reviews

The Belltown Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful"

The Edgewater Hotel

8/10 Good

"What an iconic hotel. Great staff, room 436 amazing. Loved the decor, booked restaurant well in advance however had to wait for our table… disappointing. Staff lovely, balcony furniture on our room a bit tired looking. Food in bar excellent and food in restaurant great. Position of the hotel perfect for Pike Place Market."

Mediterranean Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and spacious room. Friendly staff. There is sink next to coffee maker. However not a lot of counter space in the bathroom so plan accordingly. Small bottle of drink upon check in. They have martinelli apple cider as non-alcoholic option as well. I was in Seattle recently for Alaska cruise and stayed here pre and post cruise. They offer $10 shuttle to cruise pier, you just have to let them know the day before your embarkation day so they can put you on the list. No shuttle from pier to hotel, but you can prearrange Uber or ask the shuttle guy if they offer pick-up, or utilize Seattle taxis. Actually booked a hotel near Pike Place for post cruise but switched here for a number of reasons: - on-site laundry (coin and app operated, though looks like they will transition to app full time soon) - neighborhood. Space needle is about 10 min walk from the hotel. Safeway across the street, tons of good food nearby, and safer area to walk around in general compared to Pike Place (esp at night) Also, if you're here post cruise, they will gladly hold on to your luggage until the check-in time (while you go and explore the city or something). Will definitely choose this hotel again if I'm in the area."

Coast Seattle Downtown Hotel by APA

6/10 Okay

"Ongoing construction in the lobby and some common areas. 1 elevator was down so the wait got to be a bit longer during busy times (Saturday) - Secret tip is to use the parkade elevator to get down to the street quicker. Room cleanliness was okay overall, some beard/shaving hairs in the sink that weren't washed away and what looked like spilled creamer/sugar on the handle area of the fridge but not too bad otherwise."
