I found this amazing hotel, the Inn at El Gaucho on ILoveinns. The hotel is
intimate, comfortable and the staff is lovely and helpful. The location is
fantastic, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go; Pike Place Market,
the Aquarium, The Space Needle, Shopping, Dining and more. They have extra
touches that make it really nice, delicious chocolate chip cookies in the room
on arrival, cozy bathrobes, Starbucks coffee (and tea) in the morning, room
service from the restaurant at El Gaucho and the food is amazing! I highly
recommend it.

I really enjoyed my stay at El Gaucho. The staff was friendly and helpful. The
small touches here were really lovely--chocolate chip cookies at arrival,
hand-written thank you notes and key card envelopes, water and coffee available.
The lobby's really nice with a fireplace and a swanky Old Hollywood feel. Wall
art was Hollywood inspired. I enjoyed the location...walkable to downtown and
the Seattle Center. Funky neighborhood. Room service available from restaurant,
but that's out of our price range.
The room was sort of small, but did have a great leather seating area with a
loveseat and chair. "Office" area in a large closet. Small bathroom with shower
only. The shower was one of the best I've ever taken though! The showerhead is
high, which is great for tall people like us. Housekeeping was good (not
great--everything was clean though!).
I thought this hotel was fantastic at a reasonable price.

This was one of the largest hotel rooms I have ever stayed in. There was a full
sized leather sofa in my room with a great flat screen! The linens, glassware,
bath products were of a higher quality than you would normally have in a hotel.
The staff was great with suggestions of where to go, and most importantly you
are within walking distance of everything. There are no amenities such as
exercise equipment, but there is a jogging path nearby. It was quiet and
restful. I would stay here again.

We spent a lovely 7 days at this hotel. I love it! Best night sleep I've had in
a long time. The bed was extremely comfortable with lots of pillows and down
comforters. Loved the leather couch with flat screen TV. If you don't want to
watch TV you have lovely built in radio with great sound system. Gourmet coffee
or tea anytime you want it in your room while you're working on your computer
with wireless. If you run out of coffee in your room, there's always a fresh pot
in the lobby with fresh baked cookies to enjoy while sitting in the lounge area.
Very centrally located hotel with lots of quaint eateries and shops. When we
pulled up to the hotel, we were greeted at the door by the doorman who Who
always opened the car door for us and always had something nice to say. The
front desk receptionist were all very nice and helpful with suggestions on what
to do and where to go. Would stay again

I stayed at this boutique hotel for 4 nights and loved the rooms (nice and
spacious), bed, location, only a short walk to pike markets. The only down fall
for me is if there is any noise on the street you can hear it very well in from
your room, reception staff during the week were awesome, not so nice staff on
the weekend. I loved the restaurant and cinema below the hotel i used them both
as i was travelling on my own and didn't go out late so it was good i didn't
have to leave the hotel to enjoy these, very good stay

This was by far one of the best hotel experiences I have ever had. From the
moment we walked into the lobby, we were impressed with the decor, vibe, and
staff. Raven at the front desk was AMAZING. She was friendly, helpful, answered
all our questions, gave us good restaurant recommendations, told us where to
avoid, told us where we should go, and was so friendly and patient. The room was
wonderful! The bed was oh so comfortable, the shower was amazing (great water
pressure and nice touch with the shampoo/conditioner/ body wash in the shower),
lots of choices for channels, and the bed was so comfortable (worth saying
twice!). The location was perfect - walking distance to lots of restaurants,
cafes, Space Needle, Pikes Place Market, and everywhere else we went in Seattle.
Our room overlooked Wall Street with a good view of 1st and we didn't have any
issues with noise. Yes, there are stairs and after a long day of walking it's
not the most exciting thing to face, but it was all made better when the
friendly staff greeted us and we knew we were only steps from our comfortable,
cozy room. I would definitely recommend the Inn at El Gaucho and will definitely
stay there again.

Only stayed one night at this place, but it was an important one, as it was the
night before the start of our 3.5wk road trip. Read a lot of reviews before
booking a place and this one seemed to be a bit out of the ordinary.
And yes, it is. In a good way! The room are cozy, the sofas give it an important
extra touch, the bed was super comfy and the staff was very helpful!
Would definitely recommend this place to friends!!

Took a quick two night getaway to Seattle and decided to try the Inn at El
Guacho. Glad we did as the Belltown location was amazing. The staff were all
delightful and while I missed the full breakfast that a B&B might offer the
coffee and newspaper were a welcome start to the day.
Our room was at the back (corner) and had a comfy queen bed and lots of space
with a great sofa and flat screen TV.
While all of this was great what I really liked was the funky vibe of being
above a fab restaurant in a cooly decorated space.
Don't go if you need a chain hotel but if you like different, funky and friendly
this is an inn worth visiting.

Read a few (albeit older) reviews of The Inn at El Gaucho and wanted to clarify
(1) yes there are stairs but (2) the staff was overwhelming willing to carry our
bags up/down whenever we entered. The location was pretty good - centrally
located between Space Needle, Pikes Market & Cruise Terminal - with plenty of
stores, cafes, etc near by. Overall, our 2 night stay was lovely. The room was
great, the bed VERY comfy and the service was fantastic - very helpful and
hospitable. PS: And, yes it was helpful to know in advance that the Inn entry
was the door next to the restaurant entry - just in case you arrive at an off
hour when the door person is not out front. |
