Top Lake Union Hotel Reviews

The Belltown Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Easy access"

Crowne Plaza Seattle - Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"A typical American hotel, I’d say it’s a 3 star. We booked with breakfast, that’s a ‘must do’ you get $50 pp per day allowance, that’s gives you a good selection of food. Rooms were tired although clean. This hotel was probably originally built in the 1960’s, it’s been renovated, in particular the exterior has been re-cladded in red brick, this gives it the appearance of a much newer looking building. 6th Avenue is a 10-15 nice stroll downhill to the waterfront, be mindful the walk back uphill is challenging to say the least, its steep….."

Fantastic 3-bed townhome with A/C near downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The owners were great and returned messages promptly. The house was gorgeous and in a great location. It was literally a few minutes into downtown and had a beautiful view of the lake from one of the bedrooms. A few times we just jumped on scooters and made our way down to sightsee and eat. The house was very clean and the owners did a great job of welcoming us into their home. It is a 3 story house with two sets of stairs, so please be aware of this. My parents got a great workout. We had an amazing time and we would definitely rent this again if the opportunity came up."
