Hotel Review of the Paramount Hotel Seattle
Apr 4, 2011
I have stayed at The Paramount Hotel probably a dozen times and I will never
stay anywhere else (unless they are booked solid). The staff is always friendly.
The room are very clean (which is really important to me) and the restaurant
below (Dragonfish I think?) is really good as well and has great happy hour
prices. The location is perfect!!! It's across the street from the Paramount
Theater and it's within walking distance to all of the stores and Pikes Place
Market (10 minute walk or so). You can even walk from the ferry, which I have
done on nicer days. It can seem like a long walk, but if you know the right
route, it really only takes about 15-20 minutes. I've noticed some negative
comments about parking at the hotel, but it's a decent rate compared to
privately owned parking structures in the city. I've seen some places charge
$12.00 an hour!! I never complain about the parking price at the hotel because
it is cheaper then some places and the valets have always handled my car with
care. I always stay on the 11th floor and get a corner room. Those rooms seem to
have the best views. In fact I have a room reserved the end of this month, one
in May and one in June (lol). I'll never get tired of staying there.

diagonal across the street from the Paramount theatre (Billy Elliot the musical
was a one minute walk) and central to all the shopping, transit, museum areas
etc. Five minute drive from ferry terminal so avoided all the notorious highway
traffic. Free wi-fi. Not a lot of street noise (sirens, drunks, honking etc)
which was important as I was to find out. Top notch location. Price was pretty
good for downtown Seattle (I paid $145/nt for two doubles) parking was extra
$27/nt, and all the usual heap of taxes. Rooms aren't big, just enough room for
two people, bathroom had smallish tub but everything was clean and worked. Beds
comfortable but the windows seemed to have drafty gaps and the air conditioning
unit on it let in outside air and sound as if it was an open window. Had there
been much noise it would have been uncomfortable; I wasn't taking chances and
jammed the earplugs in before bed. That was my only real complaint, that weird
gappy window/air thing.

My two girlfriends and I stayed here for New Year's 2011, and it was a wonderful
surprise to find out how centrally-located the Paramount was. Our room was
beautiful-we still talk about the beds-and we couldn't get enough of the sushi
restaurant downstairs! Small portions to share, beyond cheap happy hour prices
(we didn't pay over $5 for anything we ordered.) The Paramount was a lovely
hotel. Only downside was the valet parking. At $24 a night it seemed a bit
pricey, but all in all we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I would love to stay
again.

I was attending a conference being held at the Grand Hyatt. I was unable to get
into the Grand Hyatt unless I paid $269/day. I went on line and found the
Paramount directly across the street at $129/day. It is an older renovated hotel
but it was clean and comfortable. There are a number of excellent restaurants
within walking distance. The staff was very friendly and helpful. If you need or
want to stay in downtown Seattle, I recommend this hotel.
