“intimate stay in the city”

My wife, Judy, and I recently stayed in Seattle and Portland, and had a wonderful trip. We chose to stay at the inn at el gaucho, at the recommendation of a friend, and I have to say that it was a good choice. We were right downtown in Belltown, but felt that we were staying with friends. The staff was friendly, always there, and we felt safe and welcomed. Our room was a jr suite, with a view of the bay. The bed was comfy, amenities were great, and espresso at Macrina was just a one block walk in the morning. All in all, a most restful and enjoyable stay.

“Something a little different”

3/3 found this review helpful

I stayed here for 3 nights in December 2007.
First impressions were great, at check-in we were upgraded from the cheapest room to the most expensive. Always a lovely thing to happen.
The hotel was very quiet - only saw one other couple during our stay.
The rooms were super comfy - one of the comfiest beds I have slept in, big leather sofas, lovely toiletries, Bose CD player with complimentary CD - jazz, very mellow.
Reception staff unobtrusive but very helpful when looking for information about Seattle - running routes, opening times etc.
A short walk to Pike Place market, 1st Starbucks, stores about a 10-15 minute walk. Lovely pizza place open across the road from hotel - they do take-out. yum.
The breakfast is a bit pitiful. Coffee, fruit and pastries. But so many places around the hotel it was not a concern. Also no cookies :( A bonus would have been a small 'fridge in the room.
A great and comfy place to stay in central-ish Seattle. A really nice place to come back to when you have been out shopping/doing tourist stuff all day.
(Have a meal up the Space Needle, then entry to the top is free, nice food, fantastic views and great service.)
Would be glad to stay here again! Above average for the price.

“Loved it...will definitly return”

We were meeting out of town guests at the Teatro Zinzanni and were looking for a room nearby. Found the Inn at El Gaucho on this website and everyone is right. It is fabulous. Loved the decor and the staff was great. The restaurant if to die for if you love a REAL steak house.

We were a little bummed to learn that they have an araingment with the Zinzanni people but if we go again, we will work with inn for our tickets.

Don't want to repeat all the other reviews...they are spot on.

“Deilightful Surprise”

I booked the Inn at El Gaucho because it's located near the ferry line to Victoria. We had 1 night and very little time in Seattle, but I wish we could have stayed longer - the Inn at El Gaucho is delightful. Thebed is great! Add to that good electronics and bath stuff and it was hard to leave - I'm really sorry to have missed the breakfast.

My wife and I stayed for three nights after a cruise to Alaska. I'm late in writing the review as we stayed at the beginning of August. We chose the Inn based on the reviews in Tripadvisor and we weren't disappointed at all. It was a fantastic room, perfect location for walking to Pike's Market or the Space Needle. Found a great breakfast spot 2 blocks away, C J's Eatery. Even the Cyclops across the street had great food and a fun spot to sit outside with a drink.

Love this hotel and would stay again without hesitation!
