Westin Hotel Seattle Guest Reviews
Aug 10, 2010
This was a combined trip for my husband and myself, one for business and one for
pleasure. As a conference sight it was adequate with a bar in the lobby and
decent meeting facilities, but the rooms are older and shabby looking, not what
you expect for 300. a night. Our room on one of the highest floors smelled badly
of old cigarette smoke and the carpet was torn and stained. I hate staying in a
high priced hotel where they make you pay for internet service, plus there is no
microwave or refrigerator (although they did bring one of a limited number of
refrigerators to our room upon request ), and a sign states you have to pay for
additional coffee packets. The hotel has two restaurants with typical mediocre
food, but the "cafe" style of the two was seldom open, and when it was it took
forever to place an order and receive the food. The desk work area is very small
and the setup is awkward, although the view out the window is lovely. If you are
here by yourself for business and hardly ever in the room I'm sure it would be
fine, but if you plan on using the room as a guest facility, you can make a much
better choice. I love Seattle and there are many hotel options downtown.

In a nutshell, this property is in no way up to normal Westin or 4-star hotel
standards.
Rooms are worn out and in dire need of renovation. Carpets stained and tattered,
mold and mildew in bathrooms, smoky and musty smelling rooms.
Most amenities such as bath robes and slippers are only available upon request.
(you will want slippers if walking on the carpets)
We viewed a total of three rooms on all different floors and each one was in the
same sub-standard condition.
My husband and I moved after one night due to the lack of cleanliness and
machinery noise right beneath our room.
There are so many other 4-star options in Seattle that are better value for the
money. We spent the remaining nights of our vacation at the Pan Pacific - great!
The one positive is that the management at the Westin recognized these
deficiencies and made it easy for us to leave.

We had a great experience - the staff was friendly and helpful, the location
quite good.
When we arrived we were a bit shocked by the $36 parking, so we just asked the
attendant whether he could recommend any less expensive options, and he gave us
printed instructions on how to get to the alternate parking, which is $22 and
attached to the mezzanine level by a skybridge. Then, when we checked in (we'd
purchased our room on Priceline for only $105 for a weeknight, so the value was
great), there was no lineup. It was after our dinner out and 11:30pm so that
probably accounted for the lack of lineup. The service was friendly and when I
asked if they had any rooms with a king bed, she said that sadly those were all
spoken for, but they did have a "parlor rooom" on the 45th floor with views over
the city and harbour. Amazing views. Great stay, Comfortable bed, and the room
we were given was twice the size of a regular room. So nice that she thought of
it; by 11:30pm it isn't likely that anyone else is going to buy it, so she made
us happy!
I would be very pleased if Priceline or Hotwire selected the Westin for me
again, and if I were a business traveler I would be very happy with it.

I stayed at Westin Seattle from July 29th to July 31st.
I checked in late. The airport is about 25 mins from Seattle airport. Check in
was smooth. I requested a room with a view and they were accomodating. I got to
stay in south tower on 27th floor. Room had a good view I called in room
service. Room service took about 25 mins to get the dinner.
Bed was comfortable. Room had a desk facing the window which was nice.
I saw many folks from cruise staying there
Hotel is nearby to Westlake shopping center and other attractions. You can walk
to Pike Public market. Very nice place

Arrived @9 30pm. Room booked with expedia and feel sure this is why we had 2
full sized beds and a view of a ladder and a wall! Beds were too small to
accommodate 2 adults and 2 teens comfortably despite them being 'Heavenly"!
Insufficient elevators for the amount of traffic in the hotel, each time we had
to wait at least 10-15 mins with maybe 4 or 5 stopping but being crammed full.
Bathroom kind of cramped but facilities in the room were nice and it was a good
size. I feel it would have been noisy if we'd been by the elevator though. It
cost $36 per night to park our car! Great location but feel there was probably
better deal to be found.

We got the hotel at a great price on Priceline and for the price the hotel was
excellent.
The room was nice, location fine, bed was dreamy.
Parking expensive (now $39/night - and the same price for hotel guests as
general public).
The check in staff didn't seem to try very hard...they were not rude at
all...but not warm either.
The car parking guys were great - at least if I had to dish out $39 + tax each
day - they were very friendly).
Pool and hit tub were great.
Elevators were almost always a nightmare - only 3 of them for 44 floors!!!!!!
Sometimes the waits were scary - 10-15 minutes - and sometimes, even then, they
were full and you had to wait (the only really "bad" part of this hotel).
I did appreciate a late night McDonalds right next door :)) We were starved late
at night - and it was an easy trip there (except...ugh...the elevators!!)

Had a nice time at this centrally located Westin, such a easy breezy walk to all
the major attractions. Had a adequate gym, a bit small, but serves its purpose.
Facilities were clean, but the rooms are showing some age. I heard that the
hotel is due for a big renovation in the next 1-2 years, so I am sure it will be
back or even better than its former self. I would definitely return again.

We stayed at the Seattle Westin on July 22 and 23, 2010. We booked through
hotwire. The location is excellent. It is very close to Macy's and the main
downtown shopping area, as well as the Pike Street Market. However, our room was
somewhat disapointing. The bathroom was not particularly clean. There was a
strange ventilation- related whistling sound present in the bathroom at all
times. One of the phones did not work. Having paid only $108 per night for our
room, however, we still considered the room to be good value for the location.

I highly recommend this hotel. Very polite and helpful employees willing to
assist every need. Concierge very knowledgeable. I felt comfortable from the day
arrived till I departed 6 days later. Room and lobby very clean. Never waited
for an elevator. Will search for a Westin to stay in on my next trip.
