Fairmont Olympic Hotel - Seattle

[jmk22574]

My husband and I just received our Alaskan cruise invoice, and we have a free night's stay precruise at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel in Seattle. Looking at the website, this hotel seems quite nice. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this hotel - good or bad.

It used to be the Four Seasons before Fairmont bought it out. It is quite a nice property, and right down in the central downtown core.

Thanks Karen....it sounds like we'll be within walking distance to some sites and good restaurants. Now the waiting begins (or continues I guess)......

It'll be here (and, unfortunately, gone) before you know it.

This is a lovely hotel, we stayed there last year compliments of HAL prior to our Nordam Alaska cruise. We were upgraded to a large suite and really enjoyed our stay. The doorman arranged for the hotel's car to take us to Pike's Place and a restaurant near there for dinner (we gave the driver a very nice tip!) and he returned to pick us up when we called him after dinner. I would say this was a wonderful way to start our vacation.
