“Fantastic service and hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 15, 2013 via mobile

Came to Seattle for Valentines Day. Location of hotel is great in downtown, close to attractions and valet is convenient. Front desk agent was very efficient and friendly, and since we came for Valentines Day, gave us a complimentary upgrade to an amazing suite. Traveled with our puppy and everyone was very friendly to him as well. After we checked in, a guest services agent arrived with complimentary amenities for us in honor of Valentines Day. Went to Sazerac for dinner, and were able to be seated without a reservation in the bar ASAP. Food was delicious, and the waitress was amazing. She was working hard through the busy evening and still gave great service and was very friendly. Overall, an excellent experience. Second stay at this property, and will definitely come back.

Great that you didnt leave your puppy home on Valentines day, they need love too. Hey thanks for the great shout out about Sazerac, it really is one of those great success stories. the menu is full of small plates for a snack or the full meal deal, try the catfish, it will change your views on Southern cuisine and leave you wondering what all the fuss is about salmon!

“Another fabulous weekend stay with Kimpton in Seattle”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

We loved the renovated Hotel Monaco. The designers who decorate these hotels have incredible style but the staff and the hotels themselves are also really special. We spent 2 nights here and loved every minute from our welcome from Claire at the reception to the gorgeous king premier room, great wine hours and fabulous food at the bar at Sazerac Happy Hour. Kimpton hotels are amazingl. We have never been disappointed and this time was no exception. Bravo to your staff and your style. See you again soon

Room Tip: We were on the tenth floor in a corner room and it was very quiet. although not large, the style ma...

Thanks so much for the great shout out to Claire who really is one in a million, actually we have a million of them here, all very focused on customer care and making a Kimpton stay special. Our recent renovation just made a great hotel even better. Come back soon.

“Great weekend getaway!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

This is the second time I have stayed at Hotel Monaco and each experience has been wonderful! I love the room decor and the beds are so very comfortable.

We enjoyed the wine reception in the lobby and from there we just walked right next door to Sazerac. You got to love a happy hour that goes until 8pm and has a great selection of food and drinks.

This hotel is my first pick for staying in the downtown area. The staff, the location and the rooms just can't be beat.

Room Tip: Make sure and become a Kimpton rewards member. You get complimentary wifi and a free item from the...

You are taking away all my talking points, but what the heck better you the guest than me! The key mention here is Sazerac. We are a hotel and restuarant company and pretty much know what we are doing! The combo of Northwest and Southern cuisine makes just the best off beat experience and no one leaves un happy. Another great Kimpton a block away - the Vintage Park, and Tulio will make even the worst business trip a positive experience. Thanks for the great note, come back soon!

“Awesome botique hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

My wife and I stayed at the Monaco in February, 2013 with our Yorkie. The hotel was very nice, we stayed in one of the Mediterranean rooms with the deep tub. The room was large and very comfortable. This hotel was amazing for staying with a dog. They don't charge a fee, the staff is nice to the pets, etc. They have a wine tasting in the lobby from 5-6 every night which is nice. The hotel restaurant is great.
My wife and I had a nice three day weekend getaway, and will probably stay here on our next Seattle visit.

Room Tip: We stayed in 901, which is a Mediterranean room I think. Very little noise. Bathtub was awesome...

The hotel has about 17 different room types and some have the deep soaker tubs. O1 rooms dont have much of a view but are huge, very quiet and then there is that tub thing. Yorkie or Pony we love them all and nope, there isnt a charge, just a couple of rules. So glad you shared your great experience with us, come back soon.,

“Wonderful - Right in the HEART of downtown Seattle”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

This hotel is not only beautiful, but it is close to everything, and reasonably priced. There is a wine hour nightly and Starbucks coffee served in the lobby in the morning.
The rooms are wonderfully decorated, and the bathrooms spacious.
The staff was great, and if you forget something (toothbrush, shaving cream, etc. they are quick to deliver it to you free of charge.
Kimpton Hotels are my favourite!

Room Tip: choose a suite if you can

Kimpton hotels are my favorite too! we now have 60 hotels across the country and opening several more this year. You can always find the latest and greatest hotels opening by going to our website kimptonhotels.com and checking out the great deals, information and what is happening at the restaurant each month. This hotel was recently renovated and really is beautiful! Thanks for staying with us, we appreciate our neighbors to the North putting up with the border to come down and visit us anytime!
