Top Central District Hotel Reviews

Executive Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good

"Good "

DoubleTree by Hilton Seattle Airport

2/10 Terrible

"This hotel has got to undergo a major renovation or at least a deep cleaning. The property is disgusting and dirty. Our AC was broken and the room was hot. They knew it was broken, but still gave us that room. Someone stopped by to check on the maintenance but nothing was done to fix it. The carpet felt damp and the shower was gross. The place is a disaster and we will not stay there again."

The Boylston Hotel Capitol Hill

6/10 Okay

"It’s a very cute property and it’s clean and in a good location. My only issue was that there is no elevator and I was on the 6th floor. They have a dumb waiter for luggage which worked fine on check in. However, I left before the staff was coming in so I had to lock my bag in a cubbyhole the night before on the first floor. Staff was nice about it, but it was very inconvenient."

Motel 6 Seattle, WA - South

8/10 Good

"This was by far the best motel 6 I have ever stayed in. Any issues were resolved promptly, the manager was extremely helpful, we had a minor issues when they were cleaning the exterior and my cost were covered. Overall it was a good experience. I would say you will hear traffic from the major roadway, and the laundry units are hit and miss when it comes to how well they work."
