Top Green Lake Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Seattle/Northgate

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay here was great. From the service to the amenities and the actual hotel room. The staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions. The room was clean and spacious. The location to downtown was perfect for us because there is a bus station and train station 5 min walk from the hotel. They were able to accommodate an early check in for us at 10 am. The staff was very accommodating. The continental breakfast was great too."

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay. We are still taking about the comfort of the bed and blankets. Best night's sleep!"

Marco Polo Motel

10/10 Excellent

"I really liked my room. It was very clean and had a retro vibe. The water pressure was very good in the shower and the bed was comfortable. Coffee maker, microwave, fridge, all worked. Parking was easy and free. I would stay here again."

Columbus Motor Inn

"Easy and plentiful parking. Large room with fridge and microwave. And Aurora can be a little sketchy but it’s not *that* bad. Just a 20 or so minute walk to the Greenwood neighborhood."

Gorgeous Huge 6-8BR Heart of Seattle—One Block from Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Location to green lake can’t get much better. Trung, our host, was lovely and responsive to our questions. The neighbor’s friendly goldendoodle is a super ambassador and gave us a warm welcome. The house has plenty of space for privacy yet feels intimate for gatherings and has plenty of seating for conversations and group meals.Seattle’s recycling is a bit cumbersome but once you get the hang of it, it’s no problem. The house had adequate signage for ‘how to’ properly recycle.We rented the additional apartment for our party of 8 and always had hot showers."
