Axel's take

A practical 3-star chain hotel near the Space Needle

7.9/10

A convenient sightseeing base with improving rooms, but a few lingering operational rough edges.

This practical 3-star hotel near the Space Needle is a good pick for travelers who want straightforward comfort and a walkable sightseeing base. Now operating as a Holiday Inn Express, it includes hot breakfast, plus room refrigerators and microwaves. Recent Expedia and Trip.com guests frequently praise clean, comfortable rooms and the location; summer 2026 feedback is more reassuring than reviews written during the conversion.

The transition has not been entirely smooth. Tripadvisor guests reported ongoing renovation and elevator trouble in May 2026, while Trip.com reviews mention uneven breakfast service and occasional unfriendly reception. Later reviews are more positive, but renovation completion is not clearly confirmed, so check before booking. Parking costs extra, and there is no pool or on-site restaurant despite some older listings. We'd skip it for a full-service stay; it makes more sense for sightseeing or a pre-cruise stop.

Best for

  • Space Needle and Seattle Center sightseeing
  • pre-cruise overnight stays
  • travelers wanting breakfast included

Watch out for

  • paid parking with low garage clearance
  • confirm renovation and elevator status
  • uneven breakfast and front-desk experiences
Location
Walkable to the Space Needle and MoPOP; Pike Place Market is a longer walk.
Rooms
Recent guests describe clean, comfortable rooms; refrigerators and microwaves are included.
Cleanliness
Generally strong recent feedback, particularly after the disruptive conversion period.
Service
Mostly praised as friendly and helpful, with some reports of inconsistent reception and housekeeping.
Amenities
Free hot breakfast, Wi-Fi, fitness center and paid laundry; no pool or on-site restaurant.
Fees and surprises
Parking is extra with a 6-foot-4-inch clearance; confirm renovation completion and housekeeping frequency.

Axel's take: 7.9/10

A convenient sightseeing base with improving rooms, but a few lingering operational rough edges. A practical 3-star chain hotel near the Space Needle, scored for what it is.

This practical 3-star hotel near the Space Needle is a good pick for travelers who want straightforward comfort and a walkable sightseeing base. Now operating as a Holiday Inn Express, it includes hot breakfast, plus room refrigerators and microwaves. Recent Expedia and Trip.com guests frequently praise clean, comfortable rooms and the location; summer 2026 feedback is more reassuring than reviews written during the conversion.

The transition has not been entirely smooth. Tripadvisor guests reported ongoing renovation and elevator trouble in May 2026, while Trip.com reviews mention uneven breakfast service and occasional unfriendly reception. Later reviews are more positive, but renovation completion is not clearly confirmed, so check before booking. Parking costs extra, and there is no pool or on-site restaurant despite some older listings. We'd skip it for a full-service stay; it makes more sense for sightseeing or a pre-cruise stop.

  • Best for: Space Needle and Seattle Center sightseeing; pre-cruise overnight stays; travelers wanting breakfast included

  • Watch out for: paid parking with low garage clearance; confirm renovation and elevator status; uneven breakfast and front-desk experiences

  • Location: Walkable to the Space Needle and MoPOP; Pike Place Market is a longer walk.

  • Rooms: Recent guests describe clean, comfortable rooms; refrigerators and microwaves are included.

  • Cleanliness: Generally strong recent feedback, particularly after the disruptive conversion period.

  • Service: Mostly praised as friendly and helpful, with some reports of inconsistent reception and housekeeping.

  • Amenities: Free hot breakfast, Wi-Fi, fitness center and paid laundry; no pool or on-site restaurant.

  • Fees and surprises: Parking is extra with a 6-foot-4-inch clearance; confirm renovation completion and housekeeping frequency.
