Concierge "This quirky 11-story hotel in the heart of Downtown is so animal-friendly that if you don't come with a pet, you can "adopt" a goldfish for the length of your visit."
Fodor's "Thanks to a massive $5.2-million renovation completed in 2012, the once slightly dated 189-room hotel has sprung back to life with a modern-meets-global look." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Like a moneyed earth mother who trolls Whole Foods for overpriced organics, this 189-room hotel strikes an odd balance between simple elegance and conspicuous glitziness." Full review
DK Eyewitness "What was once a phone company’s switching center is now a sophisticated hotel. All rooms come with a CD stereo."
Rough Guide "Luxurious boutique hotel with designer furnishings, plus a striking lobby, gym and elegant suites with CD players and flat-screen TVs – some with jacuzzis, too."
Star Service "Within walking distance of the waterfront, convention center, Pike Place Market and Seattle Art Museum, this hallmark of Northwest attitude and style is an icon in the city." Full review

Some of the standard rooms are on the small side, so it's best to request one of the larger deluxe rooms.
Gayot "This hotel is anything but drab. Yellow, red and blue jewel-toned accents dominate in the guest rooms, meeting rooms and lobby."
BlackBook "Ceiling prints of fish and coral in the lobby, bright strawberry and cream striped wallpaper in the rooms, leopard print robes for taking intentionally bad Facebook photos."
Zagat4.5
"Guest are "blown away by the red carpet treatment" at this "beautiful" Downtown boutique with "character to spare"."
OysterUpscale
"The 189-room Hotel Monaco is a sophisticated upscale property located right in the heart of downtown Seattle." Full review

There is also a small but well-equipped fitness center, and the hotel offers flexible meeting space, but it’s the thoughtful extras that elevate the stay, including free wine hours, free morning coffee, loaner bikes, and even a goldfish on request.

Frommer's "The Ace Hotel, in the heart of Belltown, is the city's hippest economy hotel." Full review
Concierge "Like its sister properties in Palm Springs, Portland, and New York, the 28 ultrahip rooms at Seattle's Ace exemplify high design on a small budget."
OysterUpper-middle-range
"This petite 28-room boutique in Belltown was the first hotel of the hipster-friendly Ace Hotels mini-chain, and it was designed with young, hip budget travelers in mind." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This hotel, situated in a historic building in the heart of Belltown, appeals to guests who prefer location over luxury."
Rough Guide "A Seattle favourite with modern white minimalist rooms in the heart of Belltown."
Fodor's "The Ace is a dream come true for both penny-pinching hipsters and folks who appreciate unique minimalist decor." Full review
Star Service "Geared to the hip young voyager with a tolerance for small accommodations and communal baths...and kitchens—the complimentary earplugs and condoms in the welcome kit are a fun touch." Full review
Michelin Guide "Ace Seattle is located in the heart of Belltown, near downtown and within walking distance of the Seattle Center."
BlackBook "Design-driven boutique crashpad rocks hotel fanatics, chic travelers' (vintage argyle) socks."
Afar Magazine "Ace Hotels—whose growing brand epitomizes a cool, unfussy, überhip hotel stay—debuted at this site in 1999, and it has become a kind of template for the company’s trademark style." Full review
