The hype
Guests are obsessed with the views and the 'wow' factor of the design, but often mention the high price of food and parking.
Lotte Hotel Seattle
$300-550 / nótt
Pantaðu þetta ef You want a Philippe Starck-designed glass tower experience with killer views, but don't care about having a pool.
Af hverju fólk elskar þetta
- Floor-to-ceiling windows in every room with dramatic city or bay views
- The Sanctuary: a stunning historic church turned event space connected to the hotel
- Charlotte Restaurant's 16th-floor panoramic views and inventive cocktails
Stutt samantekt: A visually stunning glass box that feels more like a high-end design showroom than a cozy retreat, with a bathroom privacy situation that demands intimacy.
Farið yfir af @katwalksf: I checked into the Lotte Hotel Seattle for a rainy weekend getaway, and it was exactly the cozy escape I needed. The floor-to-ceiling windows made the gloomy weather look beautiful, and the bathtub was a dream. Definitely grab a drink and just watch the city from bed.

Reality check
The 'city noise' is real—sirens and street sounds penetrate the glass walls, especially on lower floors (below 10).
- You are a design nerd who loves Philippe Starck's whimsical, mirror-heavy aesthetic
- You need a power-lunch spot (Charlotte) right in the building
- You are comfortable with your roommate seeing you shower (literally)
Hreinlæti og viðhald
9.5
- Housekeeping: Near perfect. Daily service is thorough, though a few recent reviews noted missed dust in corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Stone and glass surfaces are kept streak-free, which is hard to do.
- Maintenance: Excellent. The hotel is still relatively new (opened 2020), so wear and tear is minimal.
- Linens & towels: High quality, plush, and consistently fresh.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh. No masking scents, just clean.

Áður en þú bókar
Gott að vita
- The entrance is subtle; look for the F5 Tower glass building
- The 'Sanctuary' is an event space, not a public hang-out spot, but ask the front desk if you can peek inside—it's gorgeous
- There is a $25/night 'Urban Experience Fee' (resort fee) that covers Wi-Fi and Nespresso
Hvað á að pakka
- Eye mask (blackout curtains can have gaps)
- White noise machine or app (to drown out sirens)
- Smart casual outfits for Charlotte (it's a scene)
Herbergis-Genie
Bestu val
- Corner Suites (ending in specific numbers like 01 or 10 depending on floor) for dual-aspect views
- Premier Rooms on floors 12+ for the best bay views over the buildings
Herbergi til að forðast
- Lower floor rooms (floors 2-8) facing 5th Avenue if you are sensitive to street noise
- Rooms near the elevator bank if you dislike hallway foot traffic noise

“I would love a room on a high floor (12+) facing Elliott Bay to minimize street noise. If available, a corner unit would be amazing. Please ensure the blackout curtains are fully functional.”
Algengar spurningar og falin ábendingar
Allt sem þú vilt vita áður en þú bókar.
Is there a pool?
No. There is a spa and a gym, but absolutely no swimming pool.
How bad is the bathroom privacy?
Significant. There is a large window between the shower/toilet and the bed. You can close blinds, but it's still acoustically and visually intimate.
Is it safe to walk around at night?
It's downtown Seattle near Pioneer Square. It's generally fine, but can get gritty after dark. Stick to main avenues and take Ubers late at night.
What is the parking situation?
Valet only at the hotel (~$75/night). There are public garages nearby for half the price, but they close overnight or have lower security.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it's pet-friendly. There is a $100 pet fee per stay, and they provide a bed and bowls.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It's a la carte at Charlotte and pricey (expect $30-40 per person).
Innherja ábendingar
- ✨
Happy Hour at Charlotte Lounge runs daily 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM; great way to see the view without the $100 dinner bill.
- ✨
The front desk is carved from a single 3,000-year-old sequoia tree—touch it, it's real.
- ✨
Ask for a 'turndown service' specifically if you want water and slippers refreshed; it's not always automatic.
5 hlutir sem þú ættir að vita áður en þú ferð
💡The elevators can be slow during peak times because they share capacity with the office tower floors.
💡The 'closet' in some standard rooms is more of an open rack, which feels cool but hides nothing.
💡You might hear the 'hum' of the building's mechanicals if you are on certain floors near the plant rooms.
💡The mirrors are EVERYWHERE. You will see yourself from every angle, whether you want to or not.
💡The lobby is actually on the 16th floor (sky lobby), so you have to take two elevators to get to your room from the street.
