The W is hip and cool, and in a great location (walking distance to everything). We upgraded to a corner room which had floor-to-ceiling windows and a rgeat view. I imagine the quality of the view varies depending on floor and corner, but the room itself was very nice. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was big and clean, and the amenities were great (albeit a pricey mini-bar). The staff was friendly and helpful, although there were times when we had to wait to get our questions asked and answered. Once we got to them though, their recommendations were spot on.

Weekend getaway with wife and 2 kids. We live in the Puget Sound region. Rented 2 rooms online Charged again for the same 2 rooms on checkout. Valet Parking was overpriced at $41/night. Had to pay for internet as usual $29.90/2 days Slavish devotion to image & fashion in the hotel trumps a traveler's need for functionality. For example, their trendy check in lobby only had only one check in clerk to service the entire hotel! Hotel Restaurant is closed on Sunday nights. Look elsewhere

Our experience at this hotel was not a pleasant one. We purchased a corner room with windows from the ceiling to the floor. When we arrived we had a horrible view of a huge parking structure all windows. UGH! The hotel said they would change our room the next day, so we ventured out into the city the entire day only to come back and have to wait 1 1/2 hours to get into our new room. We were charged for parking 2 nights even though we didn't have a car. The restaurant was awful. We spent our ""getaway"" weekend dealing with problems. :(

The location of this hotel is great, but you can get something better elsewhere. If you need service, do not choose the W Seattle. I stayed for the 4th of July weekend and waited to talk to the concierge 3 times. Each time it took 15 minutes for anyone to help us, and the response was unsatisfactory. I requested the concierge arrange a taxi for the evening. His response was "I don't think you'll be able to get a cab tonight. Are you sure you want me to call? You should probably try calling them yourself." I had already called, and failure is okay, but of course I want him to call! I had just waited 15 minutes to see if the W name would help. I cut my losses when I tried to rent bikes. After 15 minutes, I weren't even 2nd in line. Another time, I watched the concierge tell a woman that there was nowhere she could dine on the 4th. Afterwards, I pulled her aside and gave her a list of places I had found on my own. I had already called the places, and all said they were slow for the. Bear in mind that I had never been to Seattle before that weekend. Also, I did all of this research through my mobile phone because the W Seattle does not provide free WiFi. I had to hail my own cabs right outside the hotel, and on my last day, the doormen were too busy talking to one another to help when I tripped going out the door. It is difficult to reach this level of incompetence without intentional effort. These people have forgotten that they are a part of someone else's rare and hard-earned vacation. Don't give them a chance to ruin yours.
