The location of this stylish small hotel is perfect to get out and explore the Belltown neighbourhood. The dimly lit reception and hand written keycard holder straight away gave me a feel of being at home, no hassle, no bright lights and no name badges. There is a cinema in the basement of the building and the warm smell of... more

I've stayed at the Inn at least 4 times and have never been disappointed. The beds are soft and comfortable. I love the furniture and homey feel. There usually is only one person at the desk but they have always been friendly. I have only stayed here on weekdays and it has always been quiet. The packages are a great... more

Awesome!

This place rocks, yes it's small and there's no elevator but other than that it is incredible. Real wine glasses, soft robes, amazing bed. and great location. It was quiet (there were some girls chatting ang giggling in the hall at 1am but someone came right away and asked them to go into their room) We will absolutely be going... more

If you agree, then this is easily the out front outstanding value hotel in Seattle. What may be lacking in 'big hotel stuff' like lots of staff and lifts is offset by a great room with nice touches. A welcome pack (water, cookies etc), an outstanding bed and excellent international TV channels (you can watch the footie on Sky) are... more

There were parties going all night. Not just until 12 or 1 AM but all night. They were in the rooms and in the hallway. We did not sleep at all. Management did nothing to stop it. This hotel is obviously for young people in groups. The room was interesting and VERY CLEAN. The retro look was nice. But I... more

Since we were arriving from Vancouver on the Victoria Clipper ferry, this was a convenient location, though It was all uphill from the ferry terminal. We walked the few blocks and ended up pushing as much as pulling our suitcases up the hill. If you're coming from the ferry terminal, take a cab if you don't want the exercise of... more

This is highly overrated on the internet. The pictures you see aren't what you get in your room. I booked this hotel months in advance asking for a quiet room for pre cruise and post cruise stay. We arrived at the hotel which is in an okay neighborhood with close proximity to the cruise ships. The hotel entry is a... more

This place has a Bed and Breakfast vibe with hotel conveniences. It is centrally located and at the edge of the "Free Zone" for downtown buses, but within walking distance to the Pike Place Market and other attractions. I booked a Belltown Suite at a lower rate with the forewarning from this website that it could get noisy on weekends... more

We visited Seattle on a working vacation trip. We initially had difficulty finding a room as it is the height of the cruise season. We were happy to find something available at The Inn at El Gaucho and based on what we saw on their website, we were looking forward to our stay there. We were, however, very disappointed as... more

We only got to stay at El Gaucho for a night, but had a pleasant stay for sure. The entrance to the hotel can be a bit difficult for people with bigger bags, but otherwise, it's only a flight of stairs into a nice big moody lobby. We checked in on the late side (9pm-ish) and everything was fine. The... more
