Frommer's "The W hotel chain has won plenty of national attention and devoted fans for its oh-so-hip accommodations, and here in the land of espresso and high-tech, the W is a natural." Full review

Although the -09 and -02 "Cool Corner" rooms cost a bit more, they are worth requesting.
Concierge "Self-consciously hip—but never exuding a too-cool-for-you vibe—the W is a haven for the design-conscious."
Fodor's "The W Seattle is like an aging hipster... that said, it's still fun if you can get a good deal." Full review
Lonely Planet "The chain that brought style back to the hotel business is in Seattle in full glory." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Situated downtown within walking distance of Pike Place Market, this 26-story boutique hotel evokes a 21st-century European chic." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This sleek property attracts the hip, trendy, and well-heeled. It offers modern amenities, impeccable service, and signature ultra-comfortable beds."
Rough Guide "Stylish modern tower with a staff of beautiful people and smart rooms in high style."
Star Service "One of the most efficiently run design-hotels in the city, and its prowess as a conference magnate is unimpeachable given its unusually large size for a W." Full review
Gayot "This cosmopolitan hotel offers the seemingly requisite haute attitude to techies, hipsters and people who like to consider themselves part of the in-crowd."
BlackBook "W Hotels are fashion-forward, pet-friendly, and always the center of chic travelers' agendas. While all have recognizable features, all are distinct as well, catering to their specific locales."

Concierge "Hotel Max has secured the honor of hippest hotel in the city, located close to the Fifth Avenue shopping district."
Fodor's "Sassy and art-forward, the Hotel Max (for "Maximalism") blends artsy decor with punchy minimalism for an architect-office effect—though one with cushy trimmings." Full review
Travel + Leisure "You don’t have to love art galleries, vintage-boutique shopping, or indie-rock concerts to enjoy staying at the Max—but it sure helps." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Formerly the Vance, this hip boutique hotel features original artwork by local artists. Located in the heart of downtown."
Rough Guide "Located in a renovated 1920s building a block from the monorail, a stylish hotel whose smallish rooms are kitted out with vaguely aesthetic themes – with original art in each room."
Star Service "In a convenient but slightly out-of-center location for business and leisure...this boutique-style hotel has been doing swimmingly, especially among the business traveler crowd." Full review
Michelin Guide "In the middle of downtown Seattle inside a historic building, the Hotel Max features stylish, contemporary decor with a focus on emerging and established local artists and photographers."
Gayot "This eclectic property features the works of local artists and photographers in each of the 163 rooms, with more than 350 pieces throughout."
BlackBook "Local art above your bed, teak wood desks, mirrored walls. Each floor is dedicated to a different local photographer, and black and white photos cover each door."

"From the turntables and Tivoli radios in the rooms to the free craft beer during happy hour in the lobby, the upscale Hotel Max is distinct and stylish." Full review
