Top Foss Waterway Seaport Hotel Reviews

Emerald Queen Hotel and Casino - Tacoma

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and upscale decor plus the spacious room. Would stay there again!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Tacoma - Seattle

8/10 Good

"Everything was good."

Hilton Garden Inn Tacoma Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"So after a brisk walk outside, I ended up falling due to the downline of the street. Cut up my face, my mouth, my hand and my knee when I came inside the hotel they did not have a medical kit available. No medical supplies only offered Band-Aids, not even alcohol wipes. I was told that I can go to the hospital or call 911 and get an ambulance…. Just because of that factor I would really give a poor rating. I’ve never heard of a hotel not having a medical kit in case there’s an accident. So I have to remember if I fall or one of my kids falls and scrape their knees. I can either call 911 or go to the hospital which was down the street on my next visit. Thank you but no thank you."

McMenamins Elk Temple

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent people at the front desk. My only complaint is the type of music and the volume (very loud) at breakfast. I don’t want to have to compete with opera music when talking."

Courtyard by Marriott Tacoma Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Room was huge, clean, and they got us in early for our check in. View was beautiful, staff was extremely helpful and definitely felt like they liked their jobs. Ive stayed here a few times and each time had an extremely positive experience. Will absolutely stay here again and would recommend."

The Nest - 4BR Historic Duplex • Walk to Park + Free Parking

8/10 Good

"The townhouse (really the second and third floors) has excellent space — four bedrooms and three baths. There were plenty of bath towels and the washer and dryer were greatThe neighborhood is going through a transition, though we always felt safe. It’s only a block to Wright Park, which is great. We were frustrated that we had to walk past overflowing garbage bins every day (we were there six nights) as we walked to the front door. We messaged the owner, who said the cleaning crew should have taken care of that and we could put our garbage in other bins. There was never an offer to empty them."
