Outstanding hotel

It was the first time we had been to Seattle. We would definitely stay at the Fairmont again. The pool was wonderful. The location was wonderful. Everyone was very nice.

Quiet and very nice

This beautiful, older hotel had amazing staff, great restaurants and was very quiet. Perfect location for Pike Place and all downtown attraction. Easy walk to monorail to Space Needle. Beds could have been a little more comfortable and bathtubs were small, but that did not overly impact our stay. We loved the hotel and Seattle!

Wonderful stay!

I can't say enough about this hotel. The way we were greeted by the staff at every moment, the great comfort of the rooms, and the excellent restaurant Shuckers. If you are planning a stay in Seattle, this hotel is perfect. Located just walking distance from great shopping and also the world famous Pike Place Market.

Very nice

Overall, the hotel was very nice. It had the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. The room was very quiet; I felt like I was the only one on the floor. I was able to get a discounted rate but don't think I'd stay there at the full rate. If you like the ambiance of an older hotel, then this is perfect.

Threadbare and Expensive but Beautiful

The service was top notch and the hotel is old-school beautiful. However, the place is badly in need of updating. The carpets and fabrics are all really threadbare and seem neglected. Also, our suite clearly used to be a smoking suite and still smelled like it. I would have been upset if I had not found a great rate here. The location and restaurants are all excellent. If they update the place, we would return.

Great Hotel

Wonderful hotel --- with an amazing work out facility, pools and sauna. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The staff is friedly and very helpful with information on "places to see/do in the city" They also offer complimentary driver in the downtown area (which is so great for evening dinners)!

old school

I was here very briefly (less than 24 hours) on business. They had fantastic food and attentive staff (used room service, concierge). It was pretty old school, ornate and a little grandparent-y, but definitely classy and comfortable.

Charming Old World Hostel

I enjoyed my stay at The Fairmont, even if it didn't have a view of the beauiful bay; everything was perfect except for one thing: I was in Seattle for the Seahawk-Bear game and the concierge told me that I wouldn't be able to obtain a ride by the town car to Quest Field--too much trouble and traffic--Ouch! I would have expected more from a five-star hotel! But, other than that, the food, service, etc. was definitely world-class. I would stay there again.
