Top South Seattle Hotel Reviews

Coast Gateway Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean hotel and room. Older property, but well maintained. "

Crowne Plaza Seattle - Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. The location is walking distance to all the tourist things to from T-Mobile park and all the way to Space Needle. They offer free complementary water bottles throughout your stay. They also offer cups of lemon water and regular water in the lobby. It’s those simple things that make this one of our favorite places we’ve visited so far. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. I recommend"

Coast Seattle Downtown Hotel by APA

6/10 Okay

"Parking isn’t great. Hard to get I and out of. Shared public garage. $56 per night extra. Didn’t see that in hotels.com. No breakfast or lunch. Restaraunt had limited hits and the wait staff looked cranky. Very blah looking. Comforter was stained - notices on last miring sitting at end of bed in chair having coffee and window taped but wouldn’t close all the way heat and a/c not very easy to control. No amenities and wanted to chart to replenish water- stayed 3 nights and only one bottle each upon checkin and the cheap stuff too! "
