Stayed here while on business. Good Internet connections with wireless. Close to Key Arena, Space Needle and various other tourist locations. Quick drive to stadiums if that's what you want for your stay. Staff was excellent even though I checked in early they made my stay tremendous as I was sick at the time. I would stay here again for sure. Lots of restaurants as well within walking distance.

It's too bad that the hotel was under renovation, as there were a lot of good things and I can only asume that it will be even better once the construction is finished. The staff was the best part of our stay; they really shown. Everyone from the front desk to the breakfest manager were wonderful, helpful and attentive. The room we had was a nice respite from the construction. Clean and comfortable, with free wi-fi it was what I have come to expect from Hampton Inn. Parking was a problem, several times the limited on-site parking was full. There was no pool, just a small fitness room and a pleseant courtyard that was overrun with smokers. The location is extremely convenient to the Space Needle but requires a car or bus ride to Pikes Place or Safeco. The breakfest was free but (probably because construction had taken over the regular breakfest area) the food was all prepackaged and not what I expected. Overall though, the hotel was a good value and I would certainly come back!

We have stayed at this Hampton Inn many times in the past. We have always enjoyed the friendly staff and the clean, comfortable rooms. We primarily choose it for the location, within walking distance of many restaurants and just down the block from the fantastic 500 Mercer QFC. Our most recent stay, however, was very disappointing. The Hampton is in the process of remodeling; while the suite that we typically reserved was cozy and well appointed (fireplace and kitchenette), the updated suite oddly designed, with poor-quality furniture. The bathroom has a dungeon-sized, very heavy and squeaky door, perfect for waking your partner in the middle of the night. The window dressings were a poor fit, leaving city lights streaming into the room at night. The heater was very loud (clunking). An overwhelming, sweet-orange air freshener is now pumped through the ventilation system in the hallways. I hope that this stay was an anomaly during the remodeling phase.

Our family has stayed in a number of Hampton Inns in various places, and this one ranks right up there. The staff members were very helpful and accommodating, the breakfast area was large and well maintained, and the hotel is conveniently located. On our last day at the hotel I asked if it would be okay to check out a little late, and the desk person was able to take care of it with no hassle whatsoever. Not only was the breakfast area large, they had a good selection of things to choose from including freshly cut up fruit. Conveniently located means that there were a number of good sounding restaurants within a block or two and two food markets within several blocks. In addition, Pacific Northwest Ballet and a couple of theaters were also within a few blocks while others have mentioned proximity to the Space Needle and that area.

A couple of potential downsides. The website for the hotel mentions a $15 fee for parking, but I was not charged for parking .... perhaps because I am a Hilton Honors member? Anyway, good news. Our room had a private patio and a nice view of the Space Needle, but the door to the patio had a rather flimsy blind so that a lot of light leaked into the room at night. The heating/air conditioning unit was one that turned on and off all the time to maintain the set temperature; my personal preference is for a unit that runs continuously to provide "white noise". Other than that, the room was clean, quiet and comfortable.
