Hotwire Hotel: 5* Downtown Seattle???

[peagreenid]

It shows a 5* for $180. We are going to spend one night in Seattle pre-cruise for our 20th anniversary. I'd like to get something nice, but most websites I have checked don't even show a 5* in Downtown Seattle. I did find one site that listed the Fairmont Olympic. The amenities listed are Fitness center and restaurant only. Any thoughts?

From the hotel list at Hotwire Seattle Hotels , the amenities match exactly with the 5* Grand Hyatt.

Thanks Will Travel-

I seemed to miss the 5* since it was listed amongst the 3*.

The Westin and Sheraton seem to come up a lot on Priceline and both generally get very good reviews.

I recently bid this area for an upcoming trip in August and was provided a lot of useful information from other board users. You can see the thread here: PRICELINE SEATTLE.

If you don't mind the cost of the Hyatt, it is my absolute favourite hotel in all of Seattle. I have nothing really bad to say about the Four Seasons -- their service is excellent, the rooms were large, albeit uninspiring. If you really like traditional styles (Queen Anne furniture etc.) I'd pick the Four Seasons. The Hyatt is very urban and stylish and the rooms (and bathrooms) are luxurious in a very modern way.

Check the web rate at the Hyatt (must be paid for in full with no cancellations, just like hotwire) before booking -- just to make sure you really are getting the best rate for the date you've selected.

Thanks for all of your help. I'm going to review some of the other hotels in the area before I proceed with anything.
