Top Green Lake Hotel Reviews

Staypineapple, Watertown Hotel, University District Seattle

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great service"

Graduate by Hilton Seattle

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay convenient location"

Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Seattle/Northgate

8/10 Good

"For those guests traveling with Amtrak, the staff does not clarify they are around 9 miles from the downtown King street Amtrak station - this hotel is a block away from the "light" rail-so when asked...they replied they are a block away from the "train" station . Took a $60 taxi ride to get there!"

Staypineapple, University Inn, University District Seattle

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome bedding !"

Courtyard by Marriott Seattle Northgate

10/10 Excellent

"Great place!"

Gorgeous Huge 6-8BR Heart of Seattle—One Block from Lake

10/10 Excellent

"I went to Seattle with 5 of my girlfriends. It was a great property and so well appointed. We had a few snafus with things not working properly and some of the women were annoyed, but the host was accommodating and very easy to reach. We travel together every two to three years. And my friends said it was the best property we have stayed at."

Seattle at its Best - a Great Neighborhood for Walking!!

10/10 Excellent

"Cozy, cute basement apt. That is in a very quiet neighborhood! Garnett was really great to communicate with before and after we arrived to the apt. Fully stocked kitchen and bathroom and plenty of really nice clean linens and towels. Bed was super comfortable and big and there’s a portable AC unit in the bedroom that you can turn on and use for a while which cooled down the apt. And then, turn it off and use a standing fan if you need some air circulation throughout the night. The location is perfect: So walkable! Everything: Restaurants, grocery store (QFC), Walgreens, etc. all within 10 minutes of walking. Highly recommend to anyone needing a nice quiet apt. And within walking distance of so many amenities at the same time."

Days Inn by Wyndham Seattle North of Downtown

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the staff was helpful. The breakfast was a banana, pastry, coffee and an orange drink. The laundry requires 8 quarters and do not expect change from the front desk for anything larger than a 5 dollar bill. The laundry provides soap and dryer sheets for free. The office is closed and locked from noon to 3 pm so if you arrive at the property before 3 you will not be allowed to check in."

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, clean property and excellent & helpful host!"
