Crowne Plaza Seattle Hotel - Page 1

My sister and I stayed here for two nights, one being the 4th of July. We payed a bit extra ($184.00) for an executive level room (floors 31-34), which gave us a spacious room with double beds, and a breathtaking view of the city, Space Needle, and partial bay. Our window was huge, almost an entire wall. Our room also had a safe, mini fridge, 42 inch LCD flatscreen, and plenty of space to spread out. We originally planned to stay at the Hilton, but I'm glad we chose the Crowne Plaza as our floor was higher than the roof of the Hilton nearby: we would never have had the spectacular view had we stayed there.

Staff was friendly, courteous and helpful - which is why I would come back here anytime, and recommend this hotel to anyone. The valet parking was $30.00 per night, which is standard for a downtown Seattle hotel, plus the parking is secured, unlike the Hilton's.

Our room had a nice bathroom with black marble tile floor, and a large granite counter which was fine for two women to share. Shower was hot, good water pressure, and nice bow curtain rod, which gives more elbow room.

Staying on the executive level guarantees a "quiet zone" on the weekdays, and it was certainly quiet for us Thursday evening. No screaming or crying children, no people wandering the hallways, etc... as those floors can only be accessed by inserting your door key into the elevator. They also provide an executive lounge with nice window views, flatscreen TV, and free evening hors d'oeuvres (pizza, chicken satay, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, dip, and cookies), and bottled water. In the mornings we had a complimentary continental breakfast which consisted of coffee, tea, juice, cold cereal, bagels, muffins, danish, lox, prosciutto ham, cream cheese, etc... It was very nice to start our day with a small meal before going out to walk around Seattle.

The only issue was the elevators. They had four shafts, but only two were in service, which made it SLOW going while waiting for the elevator to show up. Fortunately, whenever staff showed up to use the service elevator, they graciously allowed us to use it to get us where we wanted to go. Another plus for the staff at this hotel!

Again, I recommend this hotel for its courteous staff, amenities, location and price.

Crowne Plaza Seattle was a great find. My room was spacious and I really felt like I got my money’s worth. The service was great, I could tell the hotel really wanted to make it a pleasant stay. After enjoying the view from my room I was able to take the monorail to see the space needle in person. I must say this really is a luxurious Seattle hotel.

I recently stayed at the Crowne Plaza Seattle and had a great experience. The room had a great view of the city and was very comfortable, particularly large. My family and I also enjoyed the location. We were able to walk to just about everything downtown as well as the Pikes Market area. Checking in and out was smooth and quick and all-in-all it was a great stay all around.

The room was one hundred and fifty dollars a night and it did not come with a small refrigerator nor did they offer a complimentary breakfast. The breakfast options were very expensive. I would have been happier staying at a cheaper hotel that does offer complimentary breakfast.

The service was as expected, the rooms were very nice and the hotel had a convenient location.
