Top Downtown Kirkland Hotel Reviews

The Arctic Club Seattle

8/10 Good

"Lots of character and history in this hotel- we loved being downtown and within walking distance of lots of restaurants, shops and sites. One drawback to being downtown is the homeless people but I felt very safe in the hotel. The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful."

Coast Seattle Downtown Hotel by APA

10/10 Excellent

"We checked in early at 9:30 am after a week’s cruise to Alaska. We were not feeling well and were dreading that we could not check into our room for many hours. How ever when we arrived, the kind man at check in said we could check in now. That made our day. The rooms and view were great. Highly recommend."

Quality Inn SeaTac Airport-Seattle

8/10 Good

"I liked that they had lemon water and hot coffee available at all times. The breakfast was hot and good. What I didn't like: I had to go thru 3 irons before I got one that worked and the drink and snack machines were directly across from my room and he came and filled them up in the super early hours of the morning!"

The Belltown Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived early and used the luggage storage service and parking. Staff were great and took care of everything. Parking for check in can be a little tricky if there are multiple people arriving at the same time. But, we didn’t have any issues. Although you must pay additional for parking, you are in downtown Seattle and you could pay much more on your own. Area does have some homeless issues, but so does any area of Seattle. But, the doors are locked at night with on site security checking for any issues. Overall the hotel is very clean and is in very good condition. Bed was comfortable, shower was warm, and everything is in walking distance. I will stay here again if traveling to Seattle."
