The staff at the hotel do a great job! Probable the best service I've had a hotel. Wifi is expensive, and at night it slows down to a crawl. I gave up trying to get any work done at night. Since I'm part of the Marriott's loyalty program I got a large room with a great view. I saw a... More

The hotel was good the only minor descrepancy and that was due to the location late eveings you could hear the heavy traffic. The hotel personnel was very friendly. More

Whether or not you like the location probably depends on why you're in Seattle. If you're a tourist and without a car, you might not be too happy. I was visiting a company a block a way so it was perfect. I took the light rail in from the airport. It's reasonably fast and convenient, but be prepared for a... More

I stayed at the Renaissance for just one night, but that was more than enough. There were a few pleasant surprises (namely the ability to print airline boarding passes in the lobby and great sweet potato fries at the bistro), and the location is convenient, but overall the visit was disappointing. This current Priceline description has several inaccuracies: The 28-story... More

This Marriott hotel has a gym and a decent coffee shop, but it is farther from the city center shopping area and Pike Place Market than many other hotels. Wi-fi is available in the lobby, but guests are charged $12.95 per day for access from their rooms. Given the hotel's location and surcharges for Internet access, I will try another... More

I stayed at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel during a convention. The room was great! Service at the front desk and in hotel restaurants was friendly and competent. The top - 28th - floor offers a fine view, a bar, a restaurant and a spa center. The hotel itself is really great; I was very comfortable there. The only thing I... More

I recently stayed in this hotel while visiting my son. The rooms were perfectly clean! Room service was knowledgeable about the menu and food preparation. I was there when Seattle got dumped with snow and they gave me a discounted price since I couldn't get out of Seattle that day. The staff was great! Friendly and informative! I'd recommend this...

Very nice staff. Room was comfortable with plenty of hot water in shower. No HD channels. Mattress was hard and not very fancy linens..but I slept well. I would rate this hotel 3+ and would not pay full price for it. More

I'm getting ready to stay at the Renaissance for the 4th time soon. I've had great experiences every time so far! I always ask for a room away from the highway mostly because I want the view.

We booked this hotel using Priceline and for $70, we got wayy more than what we paid for. The staff was super-nice and patient - thoroughly explained how the parking worked, if I needed a city map and what sort of checkout options I have if i wanted to check out but keep my car in the parking lot.
