Michidoeme Posted February 9, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Looking at this hotel for our 2-day post cruise stay without car in September as it seems to be very central. Any experiences ? Also recommendable for 60 plus ? We´d like clean rooms, comfortable beds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDinWA Posted February 16, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2014 You might want to ask this on the West Coast Departures board, there are several folks there familiar with hotels in Seattle. (I live in the region so never have had to stay in a hotel there.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2gamble Posted February 16, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Looking at this hotel for our 2-day post cruise stay without car in September as it seems to be very central.Any experiences ? Also recommendable for 60 plus ? We´d like clean rooms, comfortable beds. I just booked SpringHill Suites by the Marriot for the night b4 my cruise. I did a lot of research looking for best price, downtown close to port. I have not stayed there before but it looked really nice. Its $149 and Free Hot/cold breakfast. 1/2 mile from space needle and only 1 mile from port. They also provide a free shuttle that will pick you up at the rail. The light rail is only $2.75 from the airport to West Lake. West Lake is where the shuttle picks you up to take you to the hotel and that is about 1 mile from hotel. All is walking distance and no need for car. My second choice was going to be Holiday Inn Express but this was closer to the space needle and pikes market and I heard its much cleaner :). Hope this helps you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biojeep Posted February 16, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 16, 2014 We stayed at the Crowne Plaza which is very close to Pike Place Market. Nice hotel & good food in their restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Gardyloo Posted February 16, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 16, 2014 The Hotel 5 is a former Ramada Inn taken over and modernized by a quality local firm, Pineapple Hospitality (who run the Maxwell Hotel near Seattle Center and a couple of decent places in the University District.) It's very well located and reports are that it's nothing like the rather shabby Ramada operation that preceded it. I wouldn't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michidoeme Posted February 19, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks for all replies. Found a rate of $ 158 excl taxes, which does not seem to be bad for September weekend in Seattle downtown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ish drakes Posted February 19, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks for all replies. Found a rate of $ 158 excl taxes, which does not seem to be bad for September weekend in Seattle downtown. Is that rate for hotel five or spring hill suites? We are looking for a hotel in Seattle in September as well. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
