The Roosevelt, a Coast Hotel

Pretty Good

We stayed here for three nights while visiting friends in the area. We picked it because it was close to where they lived and more reasonably priced for the area. It was convenient to get everywhere from. The room was nice although it obviously hadn't been renovated in a while. It was clean and comfortable though. My only real complaints were that we couldn't get the jetted tub to work, and they left us a bill at the end claiming we had used one of their $4 bottles of water. However, when we checked out, I told them we hadn't touched it, and they took it off the bill with no trouble.

Historic Hotels are what they are

Overall, the hotel was reasonally clean, easy to find, with a great, great, great location. I found parking to be easy and convenient w/ use of valet service. The only negative comment I have is that the lobby and overall "fragrance" of the hotel is kind of like my grandmother's apartment. Not offensive, but just not a "fresh" sent you might expect in a hotel. Even an old one. But especially a "Coast" hotel. A really deep clean might be in order to get hard to see-reach corner dust, etc. that might contribute to that fragrance. I will stay again. The price and location was great for a suite room! Internet access was also easy.

only dissappointment

have been a Roosevelt regular for over 20 years and for the first time found the quality of food not up to par. Have never expected much from the breakfast but have enjoyed room service or the lounge for lunches and dinner. Not so much this time. Service from room service and in the lounge was excellent and there is a small, but very nice wine list.

Great Find

Paid what we considered a great rate for a downtown hotel and were pleasantly surprised to be given a suite. Happy hour at connected restaurant outstanding ambiance/value.

Neat hotel

The Roosevelt is an old hotel with character. It may not be fancy or updated but it is in a great location. The best thing about this hotel is the staff. They were extremely helpful and incredibly polite and friendly. I do think it was overpriced.

Needs Improvement

Elevators didn't work. Staff wasn't well informed. Stairs weren't clear as to the exit. No full length mirror afnd took several tries to get someone on the phone.

Excellent Seattle Location

This was a nice hotel in an excellent location with a price much better than those in the area. Would definitely stay here again.

Would come back

Pros: close to shopping and restaurants,5-8 minute walk to Pike Place Market and museums, nice rooms, computer with free internet access in lobby, very knowledgeable/helpful staff, rental cars available around the corner if you want to take a day trip. Cons: breakfast not included but restaurant next door (not very good!), lower floor rooms are not very private.

Exactly what you'd expect

Older hotel, but right in the middle of everything. 6 blocks from Pikes, in the middle of many malls. We walked everywhere. Slight scratches on the car after using Valet parking (mild scratches on the bumper but buffed out just fine). Hotel had two elevators which caused some brief slowdowns as we were on 8th floor, but all in all we'll stay again.
