Top Phinney Ridge Hotel Reviews

Mediterranean Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to stay. I highly recommend it!"

Renaissance Seattle Hotel

8/10 Good

"There was a room mix up, which was resolved quite quickly. However, room amenities were not updated for 3 people. Bedding was poor quality, thin and inadequate for a decent night sleep. Sofa bed pillows, blanket very poor quality. Location was good. But for the price, I would probably not stay there again. Partly, it is due to the fees/taxes added on by the city of Seattle and state of Washington. It’s an industry issue these days with outlandish amounts in taxes, parking, resort fees, and as in Seattle customers paying for marketing and convention fees. Just a note to not take the room rate at face value but contact the hotel to find out exactly what you’re going to be charged."

The Boylston Hotel Capitol Hill

8/10 Good

"This is a very European style hotel located in a vibrant neighborhood. There is no elevator to get you to the upper floors. Parking is also separate. Communication with the host was excellent. It can be quite noisy from street noise. They do provide ear plugs. All in all, reasonably priced and comfortable."
