MarQueen Hotel

This was one of the best Hotel experiences my wife and I have ever had. It began with an amazing Valet named Earnest. He was the most congenial and friendly valet I have ever met. He was unable to park our 1 ton truck in the underground parking. I had a bunch of tools in the back for a IT installation job I was in town to complete. Earnest felt genuinely concerned for the wellbeing of our vehicle and my tools. He went out of his way to help me empty the vehicle, and checked all of the items (which was a lot) in the baggage area of the hotel. He then helped to find street parking which was in a safe area, and actually saved us $60 in parking fees. After all of this Earnest then made an amazing dinner suggestion and even provided us with coupons which saved us a great deal on our dinner. As I returned to the hotel each day during my stay Earnest greeted me by name, without reminder. That is a feat in my book as I often can't remember coworkers names whom I interact with daily, for years. My wife and child accompanied me on this business trip. They eventually became visibly stir crazy. The Desk clerk noticed and provided all sorts of coloring books, crafts, games etc for my 4 year old. This without us asking. I did not get her name unfortunately. After our trip we thought we had left some items behind. We called the hotel frantic because the items were irreplicable. The staff (each and every one we spoke to, one of whom named Cindy) were genuinely concerned and eager to help us locate the items. Calling us back to update us with their search regularly, and even offering to ship the items to us immediately once found. Beyond the absolutely impeccable staff the hotel itself is beautiful. If you love pre-war architecture and design it is an absolute gem. It is like a time capsule. Every room has a milk door, and the electrical is all retrofitted because the building clearly predates electricity. AS bonus they have a café, salon, skin care facility, and speakeasy on site. The speakeasy was closed during our stay, but the café was wonderful. We did not try the other services. I will likely stay here on each and every visit to Seattle. It's an absolutely perfect hotel!

Nice enough, great value for the price, parking is an issue

Staff were all amazing! So friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time. Also, anyone who is planning on attending a game at Climate Change Arena- took us less than 5 minutes to walk there. Highly recommend!!

We always enjoy the MarQueen. It our go-to when needing to stay in Seattle. The staff is always kind and welcoming. The valet, secure parking is a great bonus. The area is walkable for food, entertainment and necessities. The Victorian ambience is so fun! Love the MarQueen!

Great old hotel that was likely apartments at one time. Awesome if you are into subway tile, tall ceilings, and built-ins. If you want modern, this is not your place. Gorgeous stairway and lobby, no elevator.

The location of this place is hard to beat if you are looking at spending time in Seattle Center. It's only a mile walk to downtown and nearby public transit options make it easy to get around town. I enjoyed the unique qualities of this hotel and feel it was a great choice as someone staying in town for several days. The kitchenette area, small lounge space and comfortable bed gave me enough space to hang out and not feel cramped. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys a place with character!

The place is quite old and has poor ventilation. The smell of mold or old bones is so thick in the air all your clothes will become scented with it. Hard to be in the room with the smell. Also there are no sitting arrangements for the large room. No couch coffee table. Just an old dirty chair. And an uncomfortable kitchen area. I would not stay here again.

My friend and I stayed in Room 123 which was right next to the reception hall. It was very loud and we were woken several times by voices and especially the staff changeover. There was a musty old smell everywhere which was a bit off-putting.
