The Ballard Inn, while smaller than the Ballard Hotel, is a gem of a property and we highly recommend it! The reception area is often closed so you have to go to the Ballard Hotel to get your room cards/check in, but it's only a couple of buildings down and not a hassle. The shared bathrooms are very well-maintained and clean; the rooms are small but beautiful and are the perfect size if you're staying in Seattle for a night or two. All in all, a great place with a wonderful history that shouldn't be overlooked!

The staff was very helpful and friendly- we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The history of the the location was very interesting as well. We were able to walk to the Ballard Locks and the Botanical Garden from the inn.

Small room, but a good deal for the Ballard area
We arrived super early and the folks at the Hotel Ballard (the sister property) were super welcoming. Our primary reason for not giving a 5-star rating is that the room was very, very small. It was too small for two people to stay in very long. But if you want a nice, clean place to stay in a great part of Seattle at a very good price, the Ballard Inn is a good choice.
