Top Central Tacoma Hotel Reviews

Radisson Hotel Seattle Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff. Ideal location. Clean"

Clarion Pointe Kent - Seattle South

10/10 Excellent

"First off the new owners should be proud of themselves. The property remodel was done very well and its a beautiful property. 2nd the bed is by far the most comfortable mattress I have slept on in quite some time. Way better than any mattress I have slept on recently in Vegas. The room is tastefully decorated, the staff is very kind and attentive. The location is excellent if you need to hop on the freeway to head down town or if you wanted to enjoy great food and shopping in Kent. The area has changed quite a bit in a good way. Lots of new businesses and buildings. Overall my stay was fantastic and I felt like I booked a hilton vs Clarion. I look fwd to staying again. I hope you all maintain the property because it was perfect!"
