Frommer's "Across Alaskan Way from Elliott Bay, this sleek hotel doesn't have superb views like the Edgewater, but it's the only other option if you want to stay on the waterfront." Full review
Fodor's "The decor in the public spaces is warm, rich, and somewhat interesting, while guest rooms fall back on standard hotel decor." Full review

"There are very few Seattle hotels this close to the water, so if you want to enjoy everything this scenic city has to offer... the Marriott is a great pick." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Marriott is an eight-story property with rooms on the downtown waterfront, directly across from the Seattle Cruise Terminal (Pier 66) where ships bound for Alaska dock." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This waterfront gem with excellent views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains is Seattle’s first full-service hotel. There’s a fitness center and two restaurants."
Star Service "This is a tour-de-force fueled by commercial grandeur and excellent meeting facilities, helping it to compete with the likes of the Monaco and Alexis despite its strong business overtones." Full review

Request a higher floor here, because despite double glazing, some guests are disturbed by the passing trains, and docking ferries and cruise ships.
Gayot "When Seattle's downtown waterfront area began its renaissance, one thing was missing: a new upscale hotel."

"Pike Place Market is just a "short elevator ride" away from this "excellent" waterfont chain outpost offering "fantastic views" of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains."
