    The best thing about staying at Hotel Monaco was the location. You could walk to just about anywhere in downtown Seattle. If you do come by car, the hotel offers valet parking for $25/night.

    The hotel is very trendy--the high-ceiling lobby is gorgeous and they have some cute perks such as pet goldfish and complimentary evening wine service. That being said, it isn't quite as luxurious as they portray it to be. If you want luxury, go all the way, not just part-way. The rooms are comfortable and tastefully decorated, but their difference to lesser-classed hotels seems to be only in the colour palette and extra wallpaper on the walls.

    If this hotel is within your budget, go for it--you will get fine service and clean, modern lodgings in an ideal location. But if you are saving your dollars for a real treat, keep saving for the real deal.

  • Rooms with pet goldfish (upon request), great location and wine tasting in the afternoon...can't ask for much more. My family enjoyed the hotel immensely (even though it lacks a pool.)

  • I choose this room as i wanted a nice play to stay after driving the whole west coast from San Francisco to Seattle. I bid on a room online and got it for half price. Otherwise, paying close to $300 for a room in this hotel is totally exagerated. I give it 3 stars because i paid around 150 in high season. The service was not very cordial which disapointed me. It would get a 1 star if had paid the full price.

    No pool
    My room at view on a concrete building right beside (thank Lord i got a good rebate).

    Cannot complain about the location, its right in the middle of the action.

    BTW, everyone talks about "the fish" but i had to ask for mine... they seemed surprised i wanted one.

    This hotel is pet-friendly, which is great! If you couldn't bring your pet along, they offer you a goldfish in your room, which they feed. The hotel offers a chance to meet the manager of the hotel, with a complementary wine reception. A nice plus. The rooms are clean and very comfortable, with cool, bright decorations. Excellent location--you could walk to just about anywhere in downtown Seattle

    My wife and youngest son stayed here for a week in 2004, during his senior year of high school. He had "suffered" through our long stays in Molokai and wanted a taste of civilization for a change of pace. I had read good reviews of the Hotel Monaco and we were happy we had chosen the unique boutique hotel right in the heart of downtown Seattle.

    I'm guessing they had about 150 rooms in what looked to be a converted factory or power house. Thick walls and solid contruction. Service was flippant, fun and fast. The decorations were over the top to my taste (read bordello) but son and spouse loved the vibrant colors and stripes. We booked a suite since there were 3 of us and teenagers need their space and found it roomy. A large, cumfy couch and armchairs made it a very pleasant respite from the busy streets of Seattle.

    Location is excellent. A four block walk to Pike's Place Market but most important to my son it was only a block from Nike. Very close to the original REI store which made me happy.

    Rack rate was around $350 for our room, but we had found a great deal and ended up paying about $160 a night.

    Besides the great room, it was the little touches that I remember. Each room has it's own gold fish. Service was fast and personable with first names remembered and good tips for dining and shopping. Checkout was allowed as late as 3PM at no extra charge.
