Hotel Review of the Paramount Hotel Seattle
July 22, 2011
Booked this as a top secret hotel on Travelocity. Couldn't fault it at all,
lovely large room, good shower. Close to attractions and shops and good value
for money.

We booked for 3 nights through Priceline. A lovely hotel with an updated room
that was spotless. Great views from the room. Nice bed and mattress and it had a
refrigerator. Parking was additional but there is a free computer for use. No
laundry, which would be helpful for those traveling for a long time. The location
is in the heart of Seattle. An easy 10 minute walk to Pike Market and other
attractions or take the free underground bus.

First off we reserved 2 rooms with 2 queens. We got 2 rooms with kings on
different floors. Traveled with two families with small children, so it made it
difficult for us. They did provide us with roll-away beds but then there was no
room to move around in the room. The parking is $27 a night, info they seem to
forget to tell you about. The baggage staff was very slow and had no sense of
urgency to help us with our bags. There is no complimentary anything. There is
no pool..the breakfast is in the restaurant and it starts at like $8, you can't
put out a little fruit for your guests, the paper is 75 cents a day. The choice
of channels for the tv is terrible....for the amount you pay this place you
should get more than 20 channels....the only thing great about this place is the
water pressure. Might be great for a single person but definitely not for a
family

We were paying about $10 more per night than other relatives staying in a Best
Western near Seattle Center, and this was a better area in which to stay and a
nicer hotel. It's in the heart of the downtown from which you can walk to
Seattle Center or Pike Place Market and the water, or go a couple of blocks to
public transport (monorail to Seattle Center, light rail to/from airport, bus to
Museum of Flight).
This boutique hotel has some style as opposed to the big chains, obvious even to
my teenage daughter commenting on the details. We enjoyed the bustle and
excitement of this area of downtown, and we have no complaints about the room or
cleanliness or service or noise. The room was very dark at night and the beds
were comfy, so we got a great night's sleep. The Concierge pointed us to an
outdoor creperie for breakfast (yum!) and helped with our transportation needs.
We opted for a taxi to the Amtrak station to catch our train to Vancouver. It
was rush hour, so the concierge had to stand out there quite a while to catch
one that was empty. Luckily we had allowed plenty of time. It was a short and
inexpensive ride, so don't struggle with luggage on a public bus if going to the
King Street station.

We got the Paramount through Priceline and all we can say is that we were both
pleasantly surprised! The Paramount is a great, clean, modern, and decent-sized
hotel with large rooms, very nice bathrooms and amenities, and a concierge that
you can't forget. Check in through FourSquare for a box of chocolates and note
that you are in the perfect location for getting ANYWHERE in Seattle!
