The restaurant was very overpriced, and only one person working the front desk was in a bad mood. Everything else was lovely

Loved the location and the decor of the hotel. The restaurant was underwhelming with lunch meat on the charcuterie board and not a lot of options. Loved the bed and the room was quiet. Most staff were very helpful and kind. Appreciated the shuttle to the cruise ship as well

I am disabled and was traveling with a friend. The accessible rooms had 1 bed. That's very impractical. Many disabled travel with companions and don't want to sleep together. The worst thing was the toilet. It was so low that even my non disabled friend had trouble getting off of it. I would not stay there again simply because of that horrible toilet. The restaurant is accessible via a staircase. Even if you go around and come in from outside, there are stairs inside to the tables They need an OSHA consult.

It's a beautiful building. The architecture is lovely. The room was very nice. Food and service for breakfast was excellent.

The property is elegant and the decor luxurious. The lobbies were cozy and comfortable for waiting until time to board the cruise ship on the front end of our trip and waiting for time to go to the airport at the end of our trip. We loved the location too. Right next to the monorail Station to whisk us to the former Fairgrounds for the 1962 world fair.

A renovation would be nice

Location, customer service is simply outstanding, is a landmark and guest need to understand is not a cookie cutter otherwise enjoyed my stay

The rooms could be a bit bigger and when I went to breakfast something was going on in the kitchen as I had to wait 45 minutes to get simple scrambled eggs.

The hotel has some old "chique" to it. The location is great, near major tourist spots like the market and the Space Needle. Rooms as nice and have all needed amities.

Location & staff

We stayed twice. First room on 5th floor was OK but room on 2nd floor was better and more what I had expected.

Good central location. 5 mins to Pike Place and monorail. Nice area and within walking distance of good restaurants.

Comfortable and was able to use the Link to reach the hotel from the airport. Was able to walk a few blocks to get to Pike Place. Ferry terminal to Bainbridge was a bit of a further walk but doable if you don't have mobility issues (note: lots of stairs).

We had a lovely stay and would recommend the hotel. Maybe the elevators were a bit slow sometimes.

The location is excellent, we travelled on the 1 line train link from the airport and the hotel is less than 5 mins walk from a station. You are also right next to a transport link to the Needle and to Lake Union. It is a short walk to Pike Place. The bed was very comfy. The food in Oliver's was very good and the staff were very helpful.

This is not against the property specifically, but there are a lot of homeless people on the walk from the hotel to pike market. This is an issue for all hotels and businesses in the area, though.

Large bedroom size, comfortable beds, blackout windows, short walk to pike market, waterfront and space needle

I wish there could be a hot kettle for us to boil water instead of boiling one cup at a time. The lifts are a little slow as this is an old hotel, but maybe that is its charm. It is a pity that the side lounge can only be accessed by climbing the staircase. I noticed that the hotel guests are mostly seniors and so the lounge was empty as walking up the stairs can be quite daunting. If the side lounge could be flat, then there will be more seating space.

The hotel is located right next to the Seattle Monorail to the Space Needle and the Dale Chihuly Museum. We discovered that the hotel is so near to the Westlake Center, so we could have taken the Link Light Rail from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport instead of the cab which we did. We chose the cab as this was our first time to Seattle but if I were to go there again, I would take the light link rail which is cheaper and faster than the cab as there is no need to be stuck in the traffic congestion. I like it that the hotel is only about 5-10 mins walk to the Pike Place, but not too near to be noisy. I would like to commend one of the hotel counter staff Francesco. We reached the hotel before the check-in time after a long flight. We accept that we would have to sit in the lounge area waiting for the room to be available. He was cheerful and came to us as soon as when our room was available.

Parking is a pain, as all places in downtown. There is a parking structure next to the hotel with $50 charge per day, which was stated in the hotel information in advance.

Very quaint boutique hotel that is walking distance to the Pike. The room was clean and quiet.

The staff are friendly and welcoming. They found us a room when we arrived early. The doorman grabbed our bags as soon as we arrived. Perfect location for exploring Seattle-public transport also very close. Large comfortable rooms.

Room decor is a little dated and no water cooler in the lobby.

Great central location, close to the light link rail, shops and restaurants. Big spacious room, very well appointed and very clean. Friendly, helpful staff. We were able to store our luggage on our last day which was very handy.

There was not much room in the bathroom, especially on the toilet.

We had some troubles with the baggage that came a whole day later from the airport then we. The persons behind the desk dit a fantastic job helping us getting in touch with delta airlines and when the bags arrived at the hotel they even brought it right to our room. They also had answers to all our questions about how things work in the US en in particular in seattle.

The shower over the bath. It is difficult to get into the shower, the plug malfunctioned so the water did not drain properly. I abhor having my feet in sloshing in water while I shower.

Location; the Mayflower is within walking distance of all the places we wanted to visit either for food, shopping, entertainment, Seattle highlights.

Rooms seemed a bit dated but maybe that was the decor they were going for. They were very comfortable.

Property was easy to get to. 3 minutes walk from the light rail stop.
