Pacific States Romantic Vacations

We’ve stayed at the Westin St Francis multiple times over the years and always looked forward to returning. Unfortunately, this once grand old hotel is grand no more. The Powell street lobby entrance has been invaded by a huge bar/lounge that looks cool but doesn’t open until 4pm. It takes up a lot of prime real estate in the hotel and serves no real purpose for the better part of the day. To check into the hotel you now enter on Geary into an area that feels temporary, kind of like the vibe you get at an airport gate under construction. It’s just very disjointed. The fake cherry trees and fake flower wrapped columns in the lobby are tacky, and dusty. Two of my family members had sneezing fits while standing under the faux blooms. They chuckled about the paper flower pollen being particularly bad this time of year. The hotel has also done away with any lobby seating. Your only hope of seating is in the garden cafe, which makes it feel a bit like a Greyhound bus station. Some of the registration staff were better at their jobs than others, who seemed generally malcontent. We stayed in the Tower this trip; the best part was the amazing view from our room and the super fast glass elevators. Happily, the mattresses are wonderful. Our room was ok but could use a refresh. One family member found litter in his room. Thinking back on past stays, maybe the rooms were always a bit outdated but the majesty of the hotel overshadowed any shortcomings. Sadly, for us the magic is gone.

Everything about the Edgewater was amazing. Our party stayed in 2 rooms the night before our Alaskan cruise. We enjoyed the restaurant, the bar, and the rooiness of our accommodations. After we checked out, with our suitcases in tow, we walked the easy 10 minutes to pier of our departure. Great stay at a beautiful hotel.

Great room! Super clean, easy access to downtown Seattle. Beware- no privacy in bathroom- glass wall into bathtub and shower for all to see!

Property was beautiful, the cleaning ladies were incredibly helpful, friendly, and kind. Restaurant staff were warm and friendly in both the Fireside Lodge and The Barking Frog.

Staff was friendly.

It was a beautiful property tucked away on the north shore. The bungalows are secluded and peaceful. We got to watch surfers at all times of the day from our room

From check in to check out and waiting for an Uber for the airport the staff was amazing and attentive, grateful that our first visit to Hawai’i was so fantastic!

The bed was way too old…I flipped the mattress…didn’t really help…the guys at the big slide was on his phone 90%of the time, my 6 year old had to literally interrupt him to see if it was ok for her to go down the slide. 👎👎 The Luau was amazing! My kid loved it, only way I could afford it as a single Parent was doing the time share tour, didn’t realize I was going into a pond full of sharks..worth my 2 1/2 hours I think. Saved me $300. Glad I was able to say no…when I was told “no pressure”…😜day care would be nice…
