I had booked this hotel due to my previous terrific experience with a very nice
room and bath. Upon arrival, I requested the same room as previously, if
available. I was informed that entire floor was currently being re-furbished and
there were no rooms of that quality available. He hoped re-furbishing would be
complete in January. Interesting, as the beautiful room I stayed in previously
was very new-gorgeous bath and soaking tub. I can't imagine those rooms would
need refurbishing! I was then given another "Hilton Honors" room. I arrived to a
room on the very ground floor that had a glass door that opened to the outside
parking area. Due to security, I did not think this was a good idea for a single
female traveler, however, I did not want to 'make waves' and request another
room as I was only there for one night. Upon further inspection of the room, the
older bathroom wood doors were dirty from years of use-these "Hilton Honors"
rooms really need refurbishing. I had such a great experience the first time, I
am disappointed-and-as a single female traveler, will never stay on the ground
floor of any hotel again, if at all possible.

My husband and I stayed overnight last week, between flights. The check-in
experience was excellent, including the hot cookie. The reception area was
beautifully decorated for Christmas, with trees and lights, and a blazing fire.
Our room was in the Tower. We were on a high floor, facing trees, and found
everything extremely quiet. Very little noise from the airport, and no noise
from other rooms. It looked as if the management had sensibly spread the room
occupants out along the corridor, to ensure quietness: is this a policy with the
hotel? If so, it is to be commended. Special thanks to the friendly bartender,
who found some fresh fruit and fresh milk for us to buy. The shuttle to the
airport was efficiently run, with very courteous and helpful drivers. A pity
that there is no free internet access in the rooms. When clients are tired, they
do not wish to make the journey to the foyer to use the wi-fi there. However, I
would definitely stay here again.

Across from Airport, free shuttle every 20 minutes. The most polite and helpful
staff I've EVER encountered as a whole. Very clean. Short 10 min walk to light
rail system to downtown. Nice lounge and really decent food. I would stay here
again in a heartbeat. The rooms in the back overlooking the lake are the
quietest; they graciously moved me after my request. There is a bit of noise
from airport/street if you are in the towers facing the street so I moved. But
they hauled all my things for me. Large property and walk can be long to the
rooms but bell staff is very efficient. Pool was heated; hot tub nice and hot
and everything was great. Nicely decorated especially at Christmas. The room
rate was excellent buy rather than staying downtown and the light train system
is so easy to use it's a bargain.

The hotel was perfectly fine for a quick stay before or after a Seatac flight.
But the $17 breakfast buffet was unnecessarily expensive - just walk across the
street and down 1/2 block for some local places at one quarter the price.

We stayed here for 1 night before flying overseas. The hotel is well situated
near Seatac and there is a free shuttle to and from the airport. The hotel was
clean, friendly (free cookies upon arrival), and we found the rooms quite
spacious.
We had a fabulous dinner in the lounge and then a large-ish group of us stayed
drinking for hours until they closed. The service was super friendly and the
atmosphere welcoming and relaxed. It was a very comfortable place to gather.
We would most definitely stay at this hotel again!

We stayed at this hotel one night before an Alaska cruise. We arrived very late,
were greeted at the desk by a friendly employee who handed us a warm chocolate
chip cookie to munch on while we were waiting for our room key. The breakfast in
the restaurant was amazing, and the staff was very attentive and friendly. The
room was very clean and comfortable. The gift shop was well stocked and very
reasonably priced. We would highly recommend this hotel for before and after
cruising because it is minutes from the airport and is lovely.

We have stayed in many hotels in the Seattle airport area and finally found this
gem. The location is great, the beds are the best ever! The shuttle is
convenient and the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Thankful we finally
found such a great place to stay before our flights.

We stayed at the doubletree because we were catching an early flight the next
morning, and they had a free shuttle service (takes a little more than 5
minutes). Checking in the night before, the lady at the front desk was a little
rude. We booked a room for 2 beds, and she said non were available. We said we
wouldn't mind being compensated if you couldn't grant us our booking. She then
said, that's ok, we'll give you 2 beds. Got to our room and we probably got a
larger than normal room, very nice, impressed. The room was very nice, but could
use better customer service. |
