Top Ballard Hotel Reviews

Coast Gateway Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Rooms are very small, but for one night was fine. Airport shuttle was very convenient and very organized."

Crowne Plaza Seattle - Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"The property is fantastic, clean, spacious, inviting and very taken care of. The staff were great, professional, courteous and the Elevation staff specifically were top of the line and really took care of me. The room was clean, the space was extremely large for a standard room. And I believe the floor was hardwood, it was nice not to be completely carpeted. The only reason I took a star off was because of the light coming through the edges of the room door, there are sizeable gaps in the sides and bottom and it lets a lot of light in. A little bit of light does come through the curtains but only from the top and bottom. Overall the stay was fantastic, beds were also extremely comfortable. "

Executive Hotel Pacific

2/10 Terrible

"Executive Hotel Pacific (Seattle Washington) RM605 to be exact. - Room was way too hot where Cold AC is broken,only Heater is working. Tried to leave it open on 55degrees,until the 3rd day. Never cold. - Refrigerator not working, No microwave. - sink almost falling off, - Shower knob is almost falling off - Lend a hair dryer,but feels like its for the kids (Super Slow Air) - Extension cord was under the head part of the bed (Not Safe). And the 2nd night, the left side table outlet (when you are facing the wall TV), end it up not working and the wirings are visible, not safe. - Lend a Iron (but no ironing board) - parking is not in premises, although you can park 1 block away with additional payment."
