Seattle Marriott Waterfront

We stayed here for one night during the World Cup season. Despite the exceptionally high prices during this period, we chose Marriott mainly due to its convenient location near the pier where we would board our cruise the next day. Overall, the hotel felt rather average and did not fully live up to the Marriott name. We were initially assigned a Level 2 room, which we requested to change after finding out it was on the same floor as the pool and fitness centre, as we are light sleepers. We were moved to a Level 5 room, but the air-conditioning unit made loud motor noises throughout the night, which was quite disruptive. Since we had already unpacked and were only staying for one night, we decided not to change rooms again. We did notify the front desk during our check-out. Front desk service was a mixed experience — some staff were helpful, while others were less welcoming. The location was the biggest advantage. However, a word of caution for travellers heading to Pike Place Market: the nearby lift/elevator was not working during our stay. Those with mobility concerns or heavy luggage should be prepared, as the route involves climbing and may be challenging. Considering the premium price paid during the World Cup period, the overall stay was rather underwhelming.

Great hotel in a good location with a nice view over the water.

The location is close the restirants and the cruise terminal.

The hotel itself was in a great spot (Royal Caribbean cruise customer) and was clean and pleasant. The staff accommodated our early check in request (we arrived around 1pm) which was terrific - didn't have to wait YAY!!! The rest of the staff were all wonderful except for the bar staff. We placed an order for drinks/snacks at the bar and then sat off to the side nearer the restaurant. We had to ask at least three times for our order and the bartender/server was abrupt and rather surly. Everyone else was wonderful.

Every was decent for work and business staying.
