Top Lake Union Hotel Reviews

Mayflower Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Convenient location near light rail. Friendly staffs. Shops and restaurants nearby. However lower shower water pressure. bedside device charge outlet not available"

Executive Hotel Pacific

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location for a decent price. Love that I can safely walk to Pike’s Place and Lumen Field. The room was clean enough though the shower head and temp handle were offset making a gross hole in the wall. REALLY thin walls but that’s a lot of hotels. They did provide ear plugs and water."

Astra Hotel, Seattle, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel by Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"It was our first time travelling with our toddler and the staff here made it EXTREMELY easy -- especially when we were checking in after a LONG day driving down to Seattle from Vancouver, with multiple stops along the way which got her quite fussy already. Everybody was nice, but the lady checking us in (I'm sorry I forgot her name!) kept giving me positive vibes as I had to run back and forth to fetch forgotten items from the car, replace a lost key card, and asking for items to be sent to our room one after the other... The hotel itself was well-maintained and I really liked the gym as it was very spacious, tidy, and had a generous amount of cardio and strength equipment. It's also conveniently located near the Needle and Pike Place! Would definitely consider staying here again my next time in Seattle."

citizenM Seattle South Lake Union

10/10 Excellent

"The room is the width of a King size bed it took some getting used to. It located easily to public transportation. I wouldn’t rent a vehicle next time. We had issues with the television in our room the entire stay. The hotel staff gave us a free breakfast voucher. Good dining around the hotel."

180° Space Needle, Lake Union & Downtown Views!

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect our quick one night stay. Having the garage accessible was a huge perk, we were able to fit two mid size SUVs and utilized the ev charger. The kitchen is fully stocked along with the rest of the house. The host definitely put alot of thought and effort into setting this home up!"
