    “The hotel is well located with lots of bars and restaurants located nearby. The staff was extremely friendly. We didn’t have a room for early check-in but when we got back, our bags were already in our room, which was great customer service. Just make sure to make reservations for the breakfast”

    “Husband on a trip with teenage son. Arrived at hotel to be told check in was 4pm so they went away returned at 4 and room was still not available due to 70 Lionel Ritchie fans taking precedence. Eventually checked in at 7.15pm. They were told by the man on the front desk to go and wait in the bar area and given free drinks tokens which were only for wine. Son was ID and told to get out and that if he wanted to eat or drink he could on the street!!! What sort of a hotel is this. We have stayed at Kimpton hotels many times but this takes the biscuit. They claim to be a pet friendly hotel which is obviously more important than being family friendly. To also add a sour taste when purchasing drinks etc in the bar and being encouraged to pay cash for the drinks and tips the female server would then disappear off and not give any chance. Appalling attitude and a really bad start to my husbands and sons holiday.”

  • Comfy beds and great cocktails - great combo!

    “Rooms were just the perfect size for what we needed and were lovely and cool during a couple of hot days in Seattle. The bed was oh so very comfy. We slept well, which is what it's all about. We thoroughly enjoyed the Reception Staff and the Bar Staff and their expert cocktail making skills. The only down side was that one elevator was out of service which could lead to lengthy waits. Would definitely stay again if we need to be in Seattle. Location was great - 10 mins to the water front, 5 mins to Pikes Place.”
