Had to write a review of this outstanding hotel. My wife & I live in Victoria BC, and go to Seattle at least 5-6 times a year. We've always stayed at the Crowne Plaza, for it's convenient location, beautiful rooms (the beds are incredible), great ammenities (the new lobby is beautiful) the Regatta Bar & Lounge, and of course, the incredible staff. A huge shout out to Daunte, (who checked us in on our last trip in December) and pre-confirmed our upgrade to the "Club Floor" for this last trip from the 8th - 11th of February 2013. We were cheerfully greeted at the front desk by Mylisha, who ensured that our upgrade included our travelling companions who were visiting Seattle for the first time. (they're now sold on the hotel!) The Regatta Lounge (temporarily located on the 3rd flloor, as it was under renovations) is a great place to eat, have a quiet drink, or catch a game on TV, and was great as usual, (I highly recommend the Beef Medalions) A huge thank-you to Desiree our "favourite" server, who took care of the four of us, (and, the four guests who joined us for dinner on Saturday nite from another hotel) Thanks also to the manager Rasheed, who really helped Desiree take care of our "lively" table, and Todd, another server who helped us the previous evening.

The Sunday nite "Happy Hour" refreshments on the 32nd floor were delicious, and a thank-you goes out to Ericha, who looks after the lounge.I cannot say enough good things about this place. If you're looking for a great room, at a good price, walking distance to everything, then look no further than the Crowne Plaza.More
