Top South Seattle Hotel Reviews

Coast Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable, & convenient!"

The Boylston Hotel Capitol Hill

10/10 Excellent

"I had an excellent check in experience at the property. I arrived about an hour before check in and had every expectation to wait for check in time. I used the number posted at the front desk to notify the staff I had arrived and got an immediate response. The agent informed me he had just started his lunch break and that housekeeping was still working on the floor my room was assigned. I told him to enjoy his lunch and I would wait out my hour in the well appointed sitting area. Instead he came right down after communicating with house keeping. I was in my room and had my bags delivered less than 5 minutes later. The agent asked about my departure, which was scheduled for an early the next morning and told me that he would leave a note to have the morning staff assist with baggage. He suggested I message the same number again when I was ready. The next warning I sent a message asking for assistance within 5 to 10 minutes again the agent quickly replied and was at my door five minutes later and had me on my way very quickly afterwards. It was a seamless experience with highly competent, accommodating, and pleasant staffing. It went above my expectations as I understood the property to be more of a self style check-in and was very pleased with the experience."
