Top Gates Foundation Discovery Center Hotel Reviews

The Paramount Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was clean although the A/C was a little dirty, staff and housekeeping were incredible and the restaurant inside the hotel was fantastic. Overall I’d recommend this place if you want a good place to stay near the convention center and if you want a short walk to the light rail. 8.5/10"

Hyatt Regency Seattle

10/10 Excellent

"!"

Coast Seattle Downtown Hotel by APA

Mediterranean Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, good food nearby, easy walk to concert"

Hyatt House Seattle/Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great time, make sure to ask staff about the many different transportation options. We didn’t realize there is a seasonal/summer way to get down to the waterfront for free until checkout. Great spot and really enjoyed our stay, thanks!"

Hotel Max

10/10 Excellent

"This property has a very strong Gen X - late Millennial vibe. The staff is friendly and professional. Itʻs a very cute boutique hotel--rooms arenʻt fancy but everything is comfy and clean. If you like laid back with personality, then this is for you."

Mayflower Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Located close to a light rail line with direct links to the airport, this is a conveniently situated hotel from where a lot of the must see visitor attractions are to be found. My room was very spacious with a comfortable bed, clean bathroom and seating area. The staff were great."

Staypineapple, The Maxwell Hotel, Seattle Center Seattle

8/10 Good

"Food selection was minimal. Covers on beds were quite strange and were either way too hot or equivalent to just a sheet. Almost like a sleeping bag."

Courtyard by Marriott Seattle Downtown Lake Union

10/10 Excellent

"The gentleman at the front desk—I’m sorry I didn’t catch his name—was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. He answered all my questions and was always happy to help with anything we needed, from changing our room to even getting us a bottle of hot water after we had already checked out. Thank you so much for making our stay so pleasant. Your kindness and great service really stood out and left us with such a wonderful impression of both the Courtyard and Seattle!"
