Can't quite figure out why this hotel is so high priced except that it's close to the cruise ship docks and the quite comfy sitting room literally overhangs the harbor. Totally inaccessible by walking to anything interesting to do in Seattle. Mediocre overprices restaurant and bar and nothing good close by. Beds are GREAT but rooms and baths are date. + NO, NO personal service (a teddy bear on my bed is supposed to make up for not being recognized by any staff?). Roms are down long winding halls. Cool site if you are a diehard Beatles fan but for a lovely time in the Emerald City, go elsewhere!!!

We stayed overnight at the Edgewater on election night 2009. The room was impeccable and pristine clean. We had dinner there. We ordered from the set menu, $30 for a 3 course dinner. The food was excellent and beautifully presented, and the service was perfect. All in all we give them 5 stars

My friend and i were downtown and wanted a nice happy hour after shopping. We were told if we wanted to be on the water, go to the Edgewater. So we did. Big mistake. The service was so slow and our waitress forgot things like water and our second glass of wine. We wanted to order before six o'clock to take advantage of the happy hour and she just left us sitting there. It wasn't even busy. We would've stayed the view was so beautiful but not with that kind of service. They also promote that you can get $6 glasses of wine and $5 appetizers however you have to seem cheap and ask which ones! The happy hour menu doesn't tell you what is what and we ended up paying $11 for the wine and $18 for some of the appetizers! All in all we will not be going back. Pros: nice view Cons: the wait staff

Having just stayed at the Edgewater, I'm shocked to read so many bad reviews on this site. Our room was beautiful and quiet, the view was amazing and the bar was great. We never experienced any problems with the service. Our only complaint would be that the parking is quite expensive. Other than that, though, we loved the Edgewater and would go back in a heartbeat. We've stayed at the W before, which was very nice, but we prefer the Edgewater (especially with a water view room! Pros: Beautiful view, great bar Cons: expensive parking

My boyfriend & I stayed there and we reserved a city-view with a queen bed. When we got to our room, it was an ocean-view with 2 full beds. We had to call front desk to get the room that we asked for. Parking was really expensive and valet only. Not sure if I would come back. Overall...an okay experience. Pros: nice view of the city and water Cons: Parking is valet only/expensive

I just stayed at the Edgewater and it is the worst experience I have had in downtown Seattle. The hotel is old and musty with stained carpets in the hallways. The room was the smallest I have EVER stayed in. The "desk" was a, 18" wide glass coffee table at the foot of the bed. If you squeezed a chair up to it to use the "desk" you could not walk by the bed. The rooms were 50 yards from the train track that trains ran ALL night. The sink was so clogged that you had to turn off the faucet when washing your face or it would overflow. The front desk personnel were apathetic at best. They said they could move me for a $50 up-charge! They demanded to photocopied my license in case they would get a "charge-back" on my credit card! They would not give me back the photocopy when I checked out saying they had to keep it on file for 30 days. Parking is $30/night and even though it is outside by the street and in front of the hotel, it is valet only so you have to tip every time you come and go. Please don't stay here! There are plenty of nice hotels in downtown Seattle that are much nicer and friendlier than this. Pros: Good exercise walking so far to your room down narrow hallways Cons: Poor service, bad attitude, old, musty, tiny hallways and rooms

My wife and I held our wedding at the Edgewater Hotel (Seattle) September of 2008 and were unpleasantly surprised when we got back from our honeymoon and found out that our final bill was almost 30% (over $4,600) higher than the final estimated we received just days prior to the wedding. When we met with our sales representative and her manager we were told that the original estimate was just that, an estimate. They then assured us, however, that our satisfaction is their priority; they?d review the final bill and see if we could ?meet in the middle somewhere.? Our sales representative called us five days later to let us know that the best they could do was offer to reduce our final bill by roughly $1,600. I will say that my wife and I can agree that the location, presentation, and catering made our wedding experience absolutely phenomenal. This was definitely the best day of our lives but we can not shake the horrible taste left in our mouths as a result of our final billing surprise.

Usually when we are in Seattle we stay at the Westin. The Westin was sold out so we were deciding between The W and The Edgewater. We chose the Edgewater and couldn't have regretted it anymore! Sure the view from the restaurant was amazing but the food was just ok. I guess I don't understand what the hype is about the hotel. It has a old, worn out look and feel too it. I know it has been around for a while, but time to upgrade. When wegot to our room our key cards didnt work! We took them back to the front desk and got new ones. The next morning we ordered room service and it took over an hour to get our food. My wife's toast were cold and they brought us the wrong eggs. We called room service and instead of rushing to correct the mistake told us it would be awhile because they were swamped. Next time we will definetly stay at the Westin or try The W, but never again will we stay at this worn down ancient motel style hotel. We think citysearch should take the hint of all the bad reviews and stop reccomending this hotel as high as they do. Pros: View Cons: Parking price, service
