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"."

"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 "This hotel, with 1,258 rooms, is the largest in Seattle, and it is evident as soon as you arrive that big conventions are big business here." Full review
OysterUpscale
"Mammoth in size (1,258 rooms), and neutral in charm, the Sheraton capitalizes on its ultimate draw: location, location, location." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Head for The Daily Grill Bar for delicious hot and cold hors d’oeuvres, Washington state’s award-winning wines, martinis, and plasma TVs for sports and news."
Star Service "In the heart of the city...this colossal hotel, Seattle's largest, is synonymous with conventions, and it's no wonder it is next to the convention center." Full review
Gayot "This hotel's proximity to the Washington State Convention and Trade Center, and its role as a premier meeting hotel in its own right, help assure that the large lobby is always abuzz with activity."
Zagat4.2
"A "great hotel for business travel", this "large", "classy" Downtown tower has "some of the largest conference spaces in town" and "beautiful", "well-appointed" rooms and suites."
Lonely Planet "As you'd expect, given the location, the hotel gets lots of business from conventioneers."

Make sure you know which one you're getting if you care.
