- Seattle, United States
A handsome historic home on Capitol Hill, the Gaslight Inn charms with its beautifully furnished rooms, a sunny backyard pool, a well-stocked book library, and the kind of unhurried morning coffee in the parlour, accompanied by the family cat and a gentle black labrador, that only attentive, warm-hearted hosts like Ryan and Joelle could make feel so effortlessly like home.
- Seattle, United States
Anchored by century-old old-growth timbers, a Nature Library for lounging, window seat nooks, and staff who greet you with warmth from front desk to restaurant, Populus Seattle offers an authentically Pacific Northwest character that sets it apart from the sterile luxury of so many of its neighbours.
- Seattle, United States
Housed in a beautifully restored 1918 building, the MarQueen charms with spacious, whimsically decorated rooms, a welcoming staff who greet every guest with evident delight, and the adjoining Tin Lizzy pub serving cocktails that guests describe as the finest they've ever tasted, though prospective visitors should be aware that undisclosed amenity fees have left a number of guests feeling misled.
- Seattle, United States
With a rooftop deck for watching the Seattle skyline at night, free morning coffee, friendly and accommodating staff, including the notably helpful Anna, clean, well-appointed rooms with espresso machines and large fridges, and a walkable position just ten minutes from Pike Place Market, the Belltown Inn offers an unpretentious, well-priced base in downtown Seattle that most guests find quietly impressive.
- Seattle, United States
Thoughtfully designed rooms with dual duvets, pour-over coffee, and a lobby water bar, paired with staff who go quietly and cheerfully out of their way, from early check-ins to farewell souvenirs, make this modern Seattle boutique feel less like a hotel and more like somewhere you'd actually want to return to.
- Seattle, United States
A stately historic hotel in the heart of Seattle where the breakfast draws particular praise, staff warmth shines through, especially from individuals like Jesse, and thoughtful touches such as a complimentary welcome drink at the bar make for a stay that feels considered, even if the compact bathrooms and occasional inconsistency in lobby service temper expectations a little.
- Seattle, United States
Stylishly decorated rooms in a walkable downtown location, with friendly staff and easy access to Pike's Market and the waterfront, make Hotel Andra a solid and comfortable base for exploring Seattle, though a few guests have noted the bathrooms feel a touch dated and the Wi-Fi falls short of expectations.
- Seattle, United States
Friendly staff, clean rooms with thoughtful little touches like bedside chocolates and bathroom essentials, a downstairs area with tea and coffee tables for relaxing, and a loyal following of repeat visitors make the Georgetown Inn a reliably decent, affordable base for exploring Seattle.
- Seattle, United States
A wine-themed Kimpton in the heart of Seattle where the staff are reliably welcoming, complimentary morning coffee and happy-hour wine are thoughtful touches, and the comfortable beds earn particular praise, though the dated décor and ageing facilities may give discerning guests pause.
- Seattle, United States
Perched steps from Pike Place Market with sweeping views of Elliott Bay from a fifth-floor patio where guests are welcome to bring in fresh market finds, this beautifully refreshed small hotel charms with newly fitted rooms featuring custom cabinetry and modern bathrooms, all looked after by a notably warm and attentive staff.
- Seattle, United States
The hotel trades on its historic character and exceptionally well-appointed, restful beds, with warm personal touches from staff like Kristy, though the small rooms and noise issues prevent it from achieving true cosiness.
- Seattle, United States
A beautifully appointed boutique hotel in the heart of Ballard, where spacious, well-dressed rooms with Juliet balconies, Nespresso machines, and impeccably made-up beds are matched by consistently warm and accommodating staff, a well-regarded brunch at the on-site restaurant Stoneburner, and a lively neighbourhood of independent shops and farmers' markets right on the doorstep, though those sensitive to street noise would do well to request a quieter floor.
- Seattle, United States
A century-old Seattle landmark steps from Pike Place Market, the Moore wins over budget-conscious travellers with its large, characterful rooms, a welcoming lobby coffee shop, and staff who, on a good day, go out of their way to make arrivals feel at home, though the no-AC policy and the occasional dark corridor are worth bearing in mind before you book.
- Seattle, United States
The Baroness has the bones of a classic Seattle building, original furnishings, a Great Room with a library, and spacious apartment-style rooms with dressing-table lighting, though inconsistent cleanliness and the absence of an on-site front desk mean it suits a patient, independent traveller rather than one expecting polished hotel service.
- Seattle, United States
A locally owned hotel sitting prettily on the water at Lake Union, the Silver Cloud wins over guests with its enthusiastic, phone-answering staff, including standouts like Luis and Melissa, a solid breakfast, and a bus stop right at the front door for a quick ride into the city.
