Hotel Features. The whimsically decorated lobby features images of dolphins that leap overhead, above a fanciful border of cacti and ocean waves. Lobby décor is rich in detail, with liberal use of crimson, butterscotch, earthy brown and russet hues. A fireplace anchors this lobby brimming with eclectic furnishings and fabrics. New Orleans meets the Northwest Pacific at the hotel's restaurant, Sazerac, known for its Northwest cuisine. The Hotel Monaco Seattle hosts complimentary "Wines of the World" receptions that also introduce guests to innovative beers. Stairs or elevators descend to a lower level that houses a 24-hour business center and the hotel's function space, which accommodates up to 220 people. Wireless Internet access is complimentary throughout the hotel. Recreation includes a 24-hour, complimentary fitness center equipped with free weights and cardiovascular equipment.

    A short guide to Downtown Seattle

    Downtown Seattle stretches along Puget Sound from historic Pioneer Square in the south to trendy Belltown in the north. In between, office towers, shopping gallerias, and brick condos line the leafy avenues. The convention center is here, as is Pike Place Market, where salmon fly. Don’t miss the futuristic main library. Seattle’s twin stadiums and the International District lie south of downtown.

    We have been so happy with this hotel that we have stayed here three times. This has been over a period of a few years, and it's consistently rated well. The Sazarac next door is an inviting welcoming restaurant connected to the hotel. The room was spacious. The maintenance staff was very friendly. We asked to have the room cleaned at special times, and they were accommodating. The wine reception every evening was well attended and a nice bonus. The coffee in the a.m. was great. We would highly recommend.

    Reviewed by Gordon of Chicago on Sep 13, 2009

    We arrived in Seattle for the weekend and had 3 nights booked at the hotel. Our room was not ready, which was fine because we were there earlier than the 3 p.m. gaurentee. We asked to be called if the room became open before 3 p.m. Our call came at 5 p.m. So much for the gaurenteed 3 p.m. check in, but this disaster only got worse. When we got back to check in at 5 p.m. they quoted me the rate for my smoking room. I asked them what they were talking about because I don't smoke and had not intention of staying in a smoking room. They told me it was the last king suite and I would have to take it or accept a smaller room. I asked them what the rate would be for the smaller room and the front desk was not able to tell me because their manager would not be in until Monday. At this point I was upset and just took the smaller room rather than be put in a smoking room. It left a bad taste in my mouth for the entire weekend because the staff could have cared less. I would never recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family. Such a disappointment.

    The hotel was beautiful and the location was great. The only problem is you have to pay $40.00 a night to park at the hotel. Or you can park your car on the street(if you can find a spot) and move it befor eight the next morning; or you can find the parking garage up the street which will run you around $27.00 a night.

    This was a very nice, comfortable hotel. We enjoyed our room, the decor of the hotel, and the nightly happy hour. The staff was very helpful with directions and times for public transportation. The hotel location was great for us as we were able to walk to most of the downtown "hot spots". We also loved the bakery/cafe across the street (Belle's Buns). I thought that the hotel restaurant was overpriced and the menu was not family friendly. No matter, there were plenty of wonderful restaurants nearby. All in all, a very pleasant stay - DO shop around for the best room price at this hotel.

    The hotel is good. It is smaller and happening. If you are young you will love the bar and restaurant. We were celebrating our 40th anniversary and we still thought the bar was great. Customer service was beyond excellence. They made our reservations for dinner at a restaurant outside of the hotel and made it very special. They have wine tasting in the evening and a continental breakfast in the morning. There are many hotels in Seattle that are great, you won't be disappointed with this one. I liked the decor, it's a little funky, but still elegant.

    Reviewed by Emily of Kirkland on Feb 11, 2009

    I chose this hotel because of the star rating, good reviews, and jetted tub in the room. My husband and I stayed in the Mediterranean Suite for one night and thought it was very nice. Big room, big bathroom, and jetted tub. The view was of another building, but that's ok, and the bed was a little harder than I'm used to, but not bad. We were in a good spot to be able to walk to the downtown shopping core and Pike's Place. Not a whole lot on the same block, but there are a few restaurants and a Starbucks next door. Everyone I came into contact with was friendly and helpful. I'd definitely stay there again and recommend to people looking for an upscale hotel in downtown Seattle. The only sticking point is $40 a night for valet parking; that is high in my book!

    Reviewed by Ana of Redmond on Jan 4, 2009

    I stayed at Hotel Monaco on New Years Eve with a few of my friends, with the intention of going out to parties and coming back afterward to sleep. The location was great, everyone was exceptionally nice and helpful as far as the staff goes. Oh, and their hotel dog is so adorable! Unfortunately no one told the hotel manager that it was New Years and immediately after returning from a party around 1 am the manager came up to threaten to throw us out. It was NEW YEARS! Not to mention the room next to us was out of control loud and didn't get scolded. I was especially upset when she came to the door, I was changing my clothes so my friend told her I would be there in a minute and her response was: "You have 30 seconds." I don't really appreciate being spoken to like a child. And I also expect a little bit better attitude considering we were patrons of the hotel, and had been back in our room for less than five minutes when we were scolded. So I would recommend Hotel Monaco if you are NOT planning a night out with your friends on New Years. I am sure it would have been wonderful for a romantic night, but unfortunately for our purpose it was a bit disappointing. But I must say aside from Mean Manager, the rest of the staff was wonderful.

    We had a couple of mishaps - wrong directions, long wait for car - however the hotel went out of their way to accommodate us - with free wine and even taking a night off for the parking - and at $40 a night that was significant, Also the concierge was very knowledgeable and gave us the a sushi recommendation that was out of this world. That alone was worth the trip!

    The room we got was spacious and for the most part, well equipped. The location is central to everything, including restaurants, theatre, etc. Some of the amenities could use updating. For example, there was no wi-fi (there was a cable hook-up), and no i-pod docking station. I've come to expect that from a 4-star hotel. But the service is impeccable, the rooms are quiet.

    Overall we enjoyed the hotel. It was very clean, the room was beautiful and large, and we enjoyed the free drinks in the lobby at 5pm. We were in walking distance to everything we wanted to see downtown. The staff was friendly and efficient. My only gripes were the king bed we had was worn out (low in the middle) and the room was sprayed with a very strong fragrance that made my wife ill (migraine headache). I would recommend this hotel to a friend, just tell them not to spray the room.

    Went to Seattle for Mariners vs. Red Sox series and to do a little site seeing. The Hotel is in walking distance of both the Space Needle and Safeco. The staff at the hotel was more then helpful and the place was as clean a wistle. I will be staying here anytime I come to Seattle. The only downside I would say is that parking at the hotel is a little spendy, but we walked everywhere and saved the money in gas anyways!

    The Monaco hotel is located in the business district. I stayed there on a four day business trip. The hotel staff is very helpful and the hotel has a nice restaurant. There are also plenty of other very fine restaurants nearby to give you a good variety. The room was nice and clean with a 36" plasma TV having a few HD channels. My only gripe was no in-room coffee maker (fresh complementary Starbucks available in the lobby though). This place is pet friendly and a good many guests brought their animals. Didn't bother me a bit but stay away if you have allergies.
