I have always wanted to stay here and was totally disappointed. Our suite needed some updating, wallpaper in bathroom was peeling, bathroom door had damage and there was a stain on the couch. Unable to use the bar both nights as it was crowded, nowhere to sit so went to another establishment both nights. Ate at hotel restaurant Shuckers and had one of the worst meals I have ever had. Crossed this hotel off my bucket list but will not return, not worth the $$$$$

Our midnight check in was marred by my credit card not registering on the computer. The person handling our check in would not allow for my daughter to pay for our total stay on her credit card so we could go to bed with the operator saying he could not accept any other card except the one which the booking was made. After phoning Australia and confirming that the card had no "stops" or reason for not working, the operator still would not allow payment by other means. Eventually he moved onto another computer and Bingo, my payment was approved. So more than a hour of unnecessary stress placed on two senior citizens and it was nearly 2 am before we eventually got to bed through no fault of our own. Our friend who was also staying at the the hotel had her jewellery stolen which was later recovered which made us wary of leaving anything out in our room including hanging clothes, toiletries etc. Not a good feeling for a hotel with such a good reputation.

The property was beautiful old world style, spacious room and very clean. The bathroom could do with an upgrade, I dislike shower curtains amd would prefer a sink in the bathroom, not outside. I would also like teaspoons and milk in the room instead of timber stirrers and powder creamer. I think this would be more 5 star. On the whole a lovely hotel, good service and clean. Although they did lock us out of our room 5 minutes before we were due to check out..a little annoying. Would recommend this hotel. I think it is probably one of the best in Seattle.

We were happy with the room and location. The room service was quite expensive with their added fees. We also experienced having room service where the delivery person said we needed to pay cash. We told the front desk when we checked out because the charge was added to our bill. They did credit our bill for the charge after we explained we paid cash. $27 for tea and toast. Yikes! Otherwise the pool was nice and the concierge staff was excellent. They were the highlight of our stay. Very friendly and very accommodating. Our room was kept very clean as well.
