My family and I stayed at this Marriot for two days before a Holland America cruise (which was beyond fantastic by the way!). The hotel was well-appointed, clean, helpful, had great amenities and had a perfect location. It is a five minute walk from the Pike Place market, a short walk from the aquarium, and a few minutes from many great restaurants. As to the room, the beds were wonderfully comfortable and the bathrooms were perfectly adequate.
On a side note, I would suggest a stay here especially if you are heading out on a cruise. the piers are right outside the hotel for Celebrity and Norwegian cruise lines and a five minute cab ride for Holland America and Royal Caribbean.

We stayed for a night before our cruise to Alaska. Beautiful hotel, great location for access to our cruise ship and for seeing Seattle waterfront area. Just steps away from Pike Place Market and all the sights along the waterfront. Walk or take the free trollys to lots of area sights including the Space Needle. We made reservations months in advance so the price was reasonable (under $300.00 per night for Concierge level which included breakfast, snacks and evening wine and cheese). Wonderful friendly and accomodating service, really yummy apples at the front desk, we enjoyed all the perks of this beautiful hotel. Our room could have had a nicer view but we were gone except to sleep. The train runs along the back of the hotel but the noise was faint. There wasn't enough wrong to keep us from staying again in the future.

Stayed in this hotel whilst on a business trip. The location was ideal - plenty of restaurants nearby, the market and downtown Seattle is no more than a few minutes (and fortunately one lift) away. The hotel restaurant, although on the high side of the price window is excellent - had by far my best Clam Chowder there. The hotel itself is not the cheapest but you get what you pay for, staff were excellent, rooms spotless and very comfortable, the bar and restaurant equally relaxing and room service without fault. I shall be returning soon and will have no issue with using this hotel again.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 10th anniversary with a 4 day stay in Seattle at the Waterfront Marriott. I cannot say enough good things about our time there. With the help of the wonderful concierge Margo, my husband was able to surprise me by having local cheese and wine waiting in our room on arrival; on her own, Margo had added some chocolate and a lovely bouquet. Margo also arranged reservations for two fantastic dinners (Palisade and the Waterfront Seafood Grill) during our time there. The staff--from the front desk to housekeeping to valets--were all extremely courteous and attentive. Our view, which looked out on Elliott Bay, was magnificent, and the room was very clean, quiet, and comfortable. I enjoyed the modern decor of the hotel. Very convenient location, just down from Pike's Place and right across from a free shuttle that goes to Pioneer Square. We had a perfectly wonderful stay and look forward to returning sometime.
