This stay was disappointing as the front desk staff had no costumer service. Upon parking, signs to enter the hotel were extremely unclear and lead you to another business within the same building. No where upon booking does it depict that it costs another $60 plus to park your car in the hiltons garage for the night, having to move it by 7am either way. I ended up parking in the lot across the street for $20. The jets were broken in the hot tub downstairs, and no breakfast was included. The rooms was comfortable enough but nothing special about it.

Thank you for your comments. I will have our engineering team double check that the hot tub. We do make sure that our parking price is very competitive downtown and do post this cost on all websites. Guests get secure underground parking with in and out privileges. We hope you return.

This was the 2nd time we've stayed here in the last couple of years to watch the Braves play the Mariners. We love the location because of the access to I-5 and the walkability to reataurants and T-Mobile Park.

We enjoyed this hotel for the convenience of location and accessibility of parking. However, the shower room near the pool was in poorly cleaned and hot tub was not warm at all for two of the days we stayed. Overall, the room was in good condition.

Overall the property was good. But the lower rating is because they didn't inform us about the parking fees. Its $64/night.

It was right in downtown parking is not free but it was very convenient to have the parking garage. The hotel is very nice and beautiful, breakfast was good the room was nice and clean, pool and hot tub were great too a little smaller than expected but kids really had a blast, we enjoyed our stay will definitely be coming back and staying here again.

The last min charges added on to my stay has been ridiculous. Parking was $64 that they dont tell you ahead of time, but since its in the fineprint hidden deep in your reservation its whatever. But i had THREE different reps tell me the pet DEPOSIT would be refunded as long as there was no mess. But once i checked out i found out its NOT refundable. They were kind enough to offer a refund for the misinformation, but now not only did i not get a refund but they charged me an additional $59 and they cant even tell me what its for. All i got was transferred to a vm to voice my complaints. All together a one night stay here was nearly $400 for a subpar room and shady practices. Im furious.

We celebrated my daughter’s birthday. She wanted to see the “the city lights” so I requested a room with a view and they gave us a corner room with two views. The staff also wished my daughter a happy birthday upon arrival and check out. Usually parking is terrible in Seattle but this hotel’s parking garage was easy to navigate and park (for a SUV). Westlake Center was only a short 10 minute walk to the monorail from the property. The vicinity of the hotel felt safe and clean.
