I was here for a conference in July, the best month to be in Seattle. The location of the hotel is perfect. It's in the downtown area surrounded by a lot of upscale stores (J. Crew, Anthropologie, Nordstrom's and Macy's amonth others) and plenty of restaurants and coffee shops (there's a Starbucks every other block). I am not a Sheraton fan but the hotel had a few major positives: 1) THE CONCIERGE: the 3 women who work the concierge desk deserve a raise. They are friendly, competent and available at all times. They booked dinner for us, a cruise of the Puget Sound and a lunch and all worked out perfectly. 2) The beds and linens were very comfortable. 3) You can enter the business center with your room key to use the internet. Most hotels charge for this but their service is free. A few negatives: 1) Housekeeping could do a better job. The room was cleaned, but not well. And a coworker staying with me had to call twice to have someone even come do her room. 2) The food at the Daily Grill was average and overpriced (but hey--you have a thousand restaurants to choose from nearby and we just grabbed a scone at Starbucks after not enjoying the first breakfast!). 3) Most of the employees seem to be going through the motions. Aside from the fabulous concierge, I sensed an apathy among the staff there............as if "this is just a job" was the thing going through their minds as they helped us. I got this feeling with the bellhops, the front desk people, the waiters at the Daily Grill. It is not that they seem unhappy, but their smiles came across as false. But overall it's a comfortable, convenient place to stay and I would come back.

We got this four star hotel for 90 a night on Priceline and it was a very good deal. The hotel is in a great location for checking out the downtown Seattle, you can walk everywhere and shopping is very close. Pike Market is just down the street a few blocks. The Space Needle is a short cab ride or you can take the tram or even walk 20 min. The hotel is super busy! If you want something more mellow I would suggest not staying here, there was alot of conventions and people everywhere and getting your car around noon was a bit busy, but the staff was quick and friendly. The hotel was busy but the rooms were quiet and clean. If you want a view you might want to ask, or you'll be looking a roof tops and office windows. No complaints. Good Stay!

I stayed at the Sheraton for two nights in July while in the Seattle area on business. I was assigned a club floor room in the Pike St. Tower. Although the Pike St. tower is the older of the two, the rooms and corridors are still quite clean and fresh. I happened to be on the 34th floor, just below the fitness center and pool on the 35th floor which were under renovation. There was quite a bit of drilling/jack hammering going on from about 9:00AM until about 4:00PM, which was annoying, but at least it wasn't going on at 6AM. A temporary fitness facility has been setup in the newer tower, and it does the job. The room was comfortable with a nice, large flat panel television and plenty of space to spread out. The hotel staff was friendly and the check-in process was quick and efficient. The location is also great with plenty of shopping and restaurants within a quick walk from the front doors. I stayed at the Westin Seattle last year and the Sheraton's location is much nicer. All in all, a pleasant stay.
