Staypineapple, Hotel Five, Downtown Seattle
Staying at Staypineapple Hotel Five in downtown Seattle was a fantastic experience. Despite its compact size, the hotel’s location is unbeatable—walking distance to the Space Needle and other top attractions makes exploring the city effortless. From the moment I stepped in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and comfortable. The pineapple-themed design elements and modern interior decor added a fun, vibrant touch that made the space feel joyful and unique.

Overall, it’s a well-designed, convenient, and stylish stay with excellent value, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Seattle.
Courtyard Seattle Downtown/Pioneer Square
Staying at the Courtyard Seattle Downtown/Pioneer Square was an absolute pleasure! We arrived earlier than check-in time, but the front desk team happily accommodated us with early check-in—no hassle at all. The checkout process was just as smooth and efficient. Our room was spotless, well-maintained, and comfortably furnished. The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of downtown, steps away from Pioneer Square, shopping, dining, and major attractions. Walking to the waterfront or public transit was a breeze. This hotel offers excellent value for the quality and convenience. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to any traveler visiting Seattle.
Staypineapple, Watertown Hotel, University District Seattle
I stayed at Staypineapple-Watertown Hotel in the University District, Seattle, and was thoroughly impressed. The room was clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed—minimalist but functional with a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. While basic toiletries like toothbrushes and toothpaste weren’t provided (which I actually appreciate for hygiene and sustainability), the room came equipped with a mini-fridge, microwave, and coffee maker—perfect for grabbing a quick snack or brewing a morning brew. What really stood out was the location: just a short walk to the University of Washington campus, and within easy reach of local restaurants, cafes, and shopping spots. Public transit is convenient too—getting around the city is a breeze. It’s a great choice for students, solo travelers, or anyone looking for a no-frills yet stylish stay in a vibrant neighborhood. Highly recommend!
Ace Hotel Seattle
Absolutely perfect stay from start to finish! The staff went above and beyond—friendly, professional, and always ready to help. My room was stylish, clean, and incredibly comfortable with a great bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The location is fantastic, just steps away from downtown Seattle’s best spots. Breakfast was delicious and varied—fresh pastries, local coffee, and healthy options. I loved the unique vibe of the hotel; it feels like a cool hangout spot rather than just a place to sleep. Every detail was thoughtfully done. Would book again in a heartbeat and highly recommend to anyone visiting Seattle.
College Inn Hotel
I chose to stay near the University of Washington because I’d heard the downtown area isn’t the safest, and honestly, this was one of my best decisions. The College Inn Hotel feels just like a college dorm from an American TV show—clean, cozy, and full of charm. The European-style decor adds a nice touch, and it’s super convenient for exploring campus and nearby spots. The only thing to note is that our luggage was quite bulky, and without an elevator, carrying it up the stairs was a bit of a challenge—definitely need some stamina! But overall, the experience was fantastic. Great value, excellent location, and a really welcoming vibe. I’d definitely book here again.
Staypineapple, the Maxwell Hotel, Seattle Center Seattle
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the Space Needle, Seattle Center, and other major attractions. You can easily explore the city on foot without needing to rely on transportation. While the hotel isn’t brand new, it’s been well-maintained with a clean, inviting atmosphere and a unique, stylish vibe that gives it character. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay—always smiling, ready to assist, and making us feel welcome. It’s clear they take pride in their guest experience. Comfortable rooms, thoughtful touches, and a central spot in one of Seattle’s most vibrant areas make this a top choice. I’d definitely return and recommend it to anyone visiting Seattle who wants convenience, charm, and great service.
Four Points by Sheraton Downtown Seattle Center
Staying at the Four Points by Sheraton Downtown Seattle Center was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just a 10- to 15-minute walk to the Space Needle, with a safe and quiet neighborhood that made evening strolls enjoyable. A large supermarket is within steps, offering everything you’d need, and within a 1-kilometer radius, I even spotted the Gates Foundation and the Discovery Center—both well-known institutions that added extra charm to the area. What truly stood out was the front desk staff: every single one, regardless of background, was friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. When I expressed concern about potential noise from an air conditioning unit outside my window, they immediately offered to switch me to a quieter room without hesitation. That kind of service goes above and beyond. This hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and exceptional hospitality—highly recommend for any traveler visiting Seattle.

The cleanliness has definitely improved—clearly some thoughtful updates were made based on guest feedback. Breakfast was refreshed with small daily variations, so it never felt repetitive and the options were fresh and satisfying. The room amenities are well-maintained and comfortable, making for a relaxing stay. Location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the Space Needle and the Chihuly Garden and Glass, perfect for exploring downtown Seattle. Easy access to public transit and nearby attractions makes this hotel a top pick. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
Hotel Max
Staying at Hotel Max was an absolute delight! The location is incredibly convenient—just a 5-minute walk from the metro station, making it super easy to explore downtown Seattle or nearby attractions. The bed was spacious and comfortable, perfect for one person to stretch out freely without feeling cramped. The room felt clean and well-maintained, with a nice balance of modern touches and cozy comfort. Staff were friendly and helpful, adding to the overall great experience. For the price and quality, this hotel offers amazing value. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Seattle.
La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Seattle Downtown
Check-in was quick and seamless, with friendly staff making the process effortless. The self-serve breakfast featuring homemade waffles was a highlight—fresh, tasty, and fun to prepare on your own. I also appreciated the convenient luggage storage option, which came in handy for early departures or late arrivals. The hotel’s location is fantastic—right near Amazon’s headquarters, surrounded by plenty of dining options. Whether you're here for business or leisure, everything you need is within walking distance. It's a great balance of comfort, convenience, and value. I’ll definitely be back.
Homewood Suites by Hilton Seattle Convention Center Pike Street
I stayed here for a five-night work trip, and overall it was a decent experience. The rooms are fairly spacious with full kitchens and even a balcony—though there’s some variation in size between units. My room was on the 9th floor, which meant taking the main elevator to the 8th, walking down the middle of the floor, then transferring to another elevator to go up one more level—slightly inconvenient but manageable. I had a portable fan in the room, which made me wonder if the AC was acting up at times (my coworkers didn’t have one), but it actually helped mask nighttime noise. On check-in day, the front desk agent wrote the wrong room number on my key card. I went straight to the room, tried to use the key, but it wouldn’t open. I called the front desk from the hallway courtesy phone and found out the error—luckily just a small mix-up that could’ve been awkward. Housekeeping tends to leave freshly changed linens piled up in hallways, so if you arrive early, you’ll need to step carefully around the bedding mess. The hotel is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and the waterfront Public Market—great for exploring after work. I felt safe walking around during the day, though I can see how some might feel differently at night. Every Wednesday, the hotel hosts a mini happy hour in the buffet area—nice touch. It’s also directly across from the convention center, making it ideal for business travelers. On my last night (Friday), the hotel got busier, and a party started next door. Even after security asked them to quiet down, I could still hear drawers slamming, shelves rattling, and doors banging all night. But since I was leaving early the next morning, I just dealt with it. Overall, the price was fair, and its central location made everything easy to access. If I’m back in Seattle for work, I’d definitely consider staying here again.
