Hotel Ändra, Seattle
Expert reviews
“A Downtown Scandinavian-themed boutique property with 119 guest rooms, two restaurants and a Northwest-meets-Nordic design aesthetic featuring Alvar Aalto-designed lounge chairs and stacked firewood beside the lobby’s large granite fireplace.”
“The word ändra in Swedish means “change,” and change is what Hotel Ändra is about. The building dates from 1926, but nearly everything in this trendsetting boutique hotel—furniture, fabrics, even bathroom fixtures—comes from Sweden or Scandinavia and reflects a sophisticated and richly textured European aesthetic.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Seattle.
“Modern Scandinavian style defines this 119-room luxury boutique hotel in Belltown. Ideally located for shopping, dining, and attractions, it’s also in the heart of a small foodie empire–several of celebrity chef Tom Douglas’ restaurants are right nearby, with Lola, a fan favorite, on the premises.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Seattle.
“Subtle Scandinavian design laces this 1926 brick and terracotta building in the trendy Belltown neighbourhood, close to the city centre. Highlights of the hip hotel include a cooking school and the restaurant Lola, both run by Seattle celebrity chef Tom Douglas.”

Great stay!
Good location, clean and comfortable. We were also given a free upgrade for the second stay, which we really appreciated! Hotel Andra was also clear in their communications about storing luggage overnight as we made an overnight stay to Portland.

Location was walking distance to all the hotspots, as well as amazing food places. Stayed here on Christmas and was able to check in early and got a complimentary room upgrade as well which was an amazing surprise. Staff were incredible! Bed was so comfortable.

Very good
Most of the staff was very friendly and helpful.
I would really like to give this hotel a 9 or even a 10 because I was very happy with my experience overall; however, I encountered an issue at checkout. The receptionist initially stated that she could not print the receipt because the booking was made through booking.com. Although she eventually provided the receipt, I believe this policy is flawed and could potentially alienate customers who frequently travel for work. For those of us who travel for work and need reimbursement, it is essential to present a payment confirmation along with proof of stay. The receipt from the receptionist at checkout is the ideal document, as it includes the checkout date, transaction details, and incidentals. If this policy is intended to encourage customers to book directly with the hotel, it may backfire, as many of us rely on third-party services for their competitive pricing. Moreover, business travelers often have a set budget per night. A hotel might be out of budget based on its direct price, but it could fall within budget on a third-party site. In addition, as a software engineer familiar with hotel management systems, I can assure you that even if a transaction is made through a third party, it still needs to be recorded in the hotel's system. Therefore, it is entirely feasible to print a receipt for those transactions. If this is a general policy, I urge your hotel to reconsider this approach. Providing a printed receipt upon request is in the best interest of customer service. Booking.com does not send receipts to customers. Telling customers to contact booking.com for their receipts only adds unnecessary red tape and diminishes what would otherwise be a superb customer experience.

The perfect central location in Seattle with cloud-like beds that ensure you will not be sleepless!
The BED. Oh my gosh, it’s like sleeping on a cloud! Probably one of the most comfortable hotel beds ever. Everything else was great, as well. Super central location close to all the attractions; spotlessly clean; and the restaurant downstairs was great, as well.
Nothing!

Clean, quiet, comfortable rooms, helpful staff. Great restaurant next door. Pleasantly surprised! Good location.

Fabulous
The size of the room, we were in a corner suite. Two restaurants on site. Could walk to all attractions.
After dark, the Belltown area can be a bit daunting with the undesirable characters.

Design was wonderful, furniture was very comfortable, and staff was great. I let them know it was our honeymoon, and they put out complementary champagne and a little note!

really enjoyed the stay. would recommend
The food was lovely however not being included in the booking was a little inconvenient from an expenses point of view
Highlighting that the wine left out in the room was not complementary would be good. Expected that mini bar is not for free but anything left out on a table like water would seem to indicate that it is complementary.

Terrific, great stay
What's not to like? Location, customer service, room, wifi, etc. There was nothing wrong with this hotel. Especially the staff, they were on point in looking after the customer. Waking distance to main tourist sights. Shopping, restaurants, coffee, etc. all there.
Only thing not to like is that I cannot stay here more. I thought the room bar was overpriced but not much more than the Seven/Eleven so for the convenience was still within price. Best bet is to go to the Target for better prices.

Great value and a safe , centrally located hotel.
Felt like home . Staff were willing to help with anything needed and having a restaurant next door so convenient. Great views. Excellent!

Hotel Andra offered a luxurious stay in the heart of downtown Seattle
The hotel is gorgeous, staff is great, comfortable and well appointed. The room was equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our stay and housekeeping did a fantastic job.
The location is mixed, while downtown is great, the nearest train station is notably one of the worst in Seattle from a drug user standpoint and makes traveling at night very uncomfortable. The construction outside of our window was extremely loud but really can't be attributed to the hotel.

Would definitely recommend the hotel; the staff was great
Very conveniently located, nice room, modern, great shower, lots of outlets, great mirrors
The lighting was a little odd and hard to figure out at times; streaming was flaky too

We loved our stay at the Hotel Andra- great hotel. great area- would definitely stay there again.
We loved the aesthetics, design, and comfort of the room. The bed was exceedingly comfortable, and the seating area was perfect. Everything in our room was well thought out- functional and beautiful!

Very stylish and comfortable with lots of delicious food options!
Loved the decor, restaurant Lola was delicious (both breakfast and dinner!) as was Dahlia Bakery across the street. Room layout with sitting area was very comfortable and there was plenty of room for toiletries and makeup in bathroom and additional mirrored area by closet- very nice touches with a bar space too!
Nothing really- bed maybe a little soft but still very comfortable.

Very nice aesthetic
Nicely designed, comfy bed
Small rooms if you’re staying with more than 2 people a room

Pleasant but could have been an exceptional stay.
Centrally located in a clean part of downtown Seattle, within easy walking distance of major attractions. It is surrounded by good eateries and coffee shops.
The room was tastefully decorated but impractical. Bedside tables were far too small, insufficient cupboard space for hanging clothing items and insufficient drawer space. There was little space in the bathroom to place or store toiletries. The concept of having to ask the front desk to request housekeeping to make up the room each morning is strange for a hotel of this stature.

Super beautiful hotel! Great location!
The room was so pretty, it was walking distance to the market and a great coffee shop called Dahlia’s bakery!
Not great parking options unless you just use the valet

Receptionists are friendly and hospitable. They welcomed us back every time. The room got well cleaned up every day.

Home away from home only better.
This was our second stay. The location is perfect, within walking distance of most everything. The neighborhood has wonderful restaurants and bakeries. The staff is welcoming and wonderful about accommodating requests.
The pillows. I like firmer ones.

The staff was very kind and informative. It would’ve been nice to stay longer but our schedule not our budget would all
Easy to get to. Great location.
Not the hotel’s fault. I’m sure it will be better when they aren’t in the middle of a construction zone.

Great spot for exploring Seattle!
Most hotels have lost a step since Covid, but not the Andra. The Andra was very clean with a great attention to detail. Location was perfect for all of Seattle.
Chromecast didn’t work in our rooms, but not the worst thing.

Wonderful stay in a prime location!
The bed was very comfortable, and the water pressure in the shower was amazing. I also liked the location since it was close to many of Seattle's highlights.
While it was nice to have a Nespresso machine and capsules in the room, the hotel didn't provide complimentary water. It was $10 for a bottle of Voss.

Deluxe downtown
The staff is very kind and professional.
Street noise so perhaps a sound machine would have been nice. But that goes with choosing a downtown hotel which was wonderful, so walkable to Pike Place, etc.

Nice suite. Good location
We liked having a suite
There was a noise probably thru ventilation system that came on periodically. The 1st night we did not hear it after 10 but the second night we did. Also the AC filters clearly needed changing. They also did not refresh the coffee pods sufficiently. Also provide shelf stable half and half, not coffee mate

There was a light underneath one of the bedside tables that we couldn't figure out how to turn off, so it stayed on all night while we were trying to sleep. If there was a way to turn it off, the control could have been more obvious to find.
