We stayed at Residence Inn Seattle Downtown/Lake Union from May 10th - 18th. The hotel was very nice. The rooms were clean and very pleasant. Very good selection of breakfast items - and complimentary. Most importantly, the entire staff was cordial, helpful, and professional. The front desk staff members were so knowledgeable at any time we had a question about... More

We waited three and a half hours to get a room and we were not the only people waiting. We asked multiple times about how much longer we would have to wait to be told they didn't know how long it would take. The hotel was not up to the usual standards of cleanliness. Checkout time is noon, they called... More

We recently spent two nights at the Residence Inn Downtown in Seattle. This hotel has a lot of good things going for it. It is a very nice, relatively new hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful and there was an ample complimentary breakfast. I have two teenagers, and we like two bedroom hotels where the kids can have their... More

This Residence Inn is located in the area to the north of downtown Seattle, across the street from Lake Union. Probably beyond walking distance for most people but the streetcar to downtown runs from directly outside the hotel every 15 minutes. Rooms are quiet and very spacious, great bed, full kitchen, free decent breakfast, good free wifi, clean, friendly staff,... More

I stayed here this past week for a conference, which was also held at the hotel. The staff was fantastic, the entire front desk was knowledgeable and attentive. They provided me with some toiletries at no charge that the TSA had liberated from my bag during my travels. The staff addressed me by name (which really impressed me due to... More

This is an excellent location for quiet time and it's pretty romantic too! We spent our wedding anniversary at this property and it is clean and well kept, with very courteous staff!! There is a boat marina across the street with great restaurants and the streetcar to go downtown stops a block away from the hotel...extremely convenient!!! All the rooms... More

We just returned from a three day trip to Seattle from Portland. Four of us planned to view the Gaugain exhibit at the Seattle Art Museum and then do some shopping and see a few sights. The Residence Inn allowed us to be together in one suite with two bedrooms and two baths. A perfect arrangement for old friends. We... More

We chose to try a suite here recently. Check in was painless. We went to our room and found someone hosting a major party next door to our room. We called in and quickly got another room at the other end of the hotel while they sorted that out. Our room was big enough for our party of one pre... More

Stayed here with my family over Spring Break in a 2-bedroom suite. Great location, right on the Street Car Line with easy access to downtown and Space Needle. Staff was very pleasant, and hotel was clean and beds were comfy. Breakfast was ok - free and ample, but not the tastiest. Worst thing about the hotel (and it's not really... More
