My husband and I just spent the weekend there with our pup and can't say enough about how wonderful the staff was. Everyone from the parking attendents to the wait staff and housekeepers were friendly and so polite and helpful. The Garden Terrace dinner left me speechless! The best salmon I have ever had by far and I found the... More

Very convienent to downtown activities. The desk staff and concierege were very friendly and attentive. During our stay we had to switch rooms after a few nights. The thin walls made it difficult to sleep with neighbors on each side of you being noisy. The bed in the first room was in need of replacement and had a nice "sink... More

We stayed a the Red Lion while playing in abridge tournament in the convention center. The location was perfect, about a 3 or 4 block walk in one direction to the convention center, in the other to the famous Pike Place market. Front desk staff and restaurant staff were pleasant and efficient, and when I mentioned that the toilet was... More

We stayed in what Red Lion called an "Executive Suite". It had a separate bedroom (with a closing door and its own big TV), plus a large living area with TV, chairs, and sofa. Very nice water view in this 18th floor room. Pros: Very friendly and efficient staff. We brought our 12-month-old baby with us, and they worked hard... More

Convenient to the major attractions in Seattle. This is an exciting city with the best seafood any where. Atop the space needle is spectacular. Pike place market is a must see. The salmon and oysters are worth the trip. The hotel is beautiful with a great view. More

We stayed for 4 nights in early November; attending a conference [at another more expensive hotel!] & general sightseeing. Location excellent; room very good; a great simple classic modern European feel. Bed fabulous; housekeeping discreet & very polite. Our room was missing a refrigerator; we did eventually get it after 3 days & querying one! The concierge, Lalla {?} was... More

We enjoyed our single-night stay at this hotel as a family of three. Our room was nice, street view, on 19th floor. We could check-in early. The only issue was that the pillows smelled like someone had already slept on them. Well, we were tired and did not care to call the housekeeping and deal with it. But, otherwise I... More

Booked two rooms for a girls weekend. I feel very pleased with our choice of hotels. Location, Location, Location is great. Two blocks from shopping and a few blocks from the pike place market. Many places to eat and drink right around us. Never needed to use the car. Parking a little stiff at 30 plus tax a night. Rooms... More

I really enjoyed my stay at the Red Lion downtown. While attending a conference just two blocks away, this hotel was in a perfect location. Check-in and check-out were fast, easy, and professional. The room had a European feel, small but well-appointed and comfortable. I purchased the parking and buffet breakfast add-on and found it to be worth it. The... More
