Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“The Hotel Theodore is a refined 153-room property that reopened in 2017 after a style-minded renovation. In the Art Deco tower that formerly housed the Roosevelt Hotel, guests are now surrounded by Seattle-sourced products, from a collection of local art and artifacts to house-roasted beans in the on-site coffee shop.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Seattle.

Telegraph review:

“This Art Deco skyscraper has undergone a floor-to-ceiling refresh: style-wise, the downtown landmark salutes Seattle’s industrial past, which led to its role as a tech and innovation hub. This luxurious urban escape especially appeals to creatives and entrepreneurs.”

Great location. Very accessible from the Eastside

Great location, great restaurant.

Bathrooms are way too small. Serving 5’pm wine at the social in plastic cups is a no no, and having to ask to get your room made up is so yesterday

The ideal spot for a couple visiting Seattle!

Excellent location in the heart of Seattle, in walking distance to many key sights and transport links. Very modern and clean, with spacious comfortable rooms - big beds too! The 24 hour gym and facility are also ideal. Staff were pleasant and helpful too

Fairly expensive in general but relative to its location in the heart of Seattle

Good overall stay. Hotel is very nice and within walking distance to attractions.

Loved the location. Close to the Paramount Theater where our concert was. Lots of restaurants and shopping near by. Hotel was clean and up to date.

I’m from Alaska so I enjoy a cool room. Had a hard time regulating the temperature. The bathroom was very nice but wish there was more counter space. And at least one towel rack or holder next to the sink. I also was disappointed that there was only one chair in the room. If you are traveling by yourself it would have been fine, but having your significant other with you, another chair would have gone a long way in the comfort department. Parking was also very expensive in this area. Expect to pay $35 - $55 a day.

First visit to Seattle and we fell in love with the city and Hotel Theodore. Cannot wait to return!

Location was excellent for our needs, we did not eat at the hotel so cannot reply to that. I did ask the manager at the desk if we could get tea late in the evening and was amazed that they brought us a hot water kettle so we could make our own just as we wanted. Excellent staff, courteous and helpful.

We had brought our own tea on our trip but a few tea bags in the room would have been nice.

Super boutique hotel in good location.

This is a very attractive boutique hotel with lovely furnishings and art work making it a pleasant place to stay. Our bedroom was spacious with a little seating area. The location was great for everywhere we wanted to go and also close to public transport but also within easy walking distance to many tourist locations such as Pikes Market. The staff were very efficient and welcoming. Riders restaurant in the hotel had good food although at times got very busy. There is also a coffee shop for carry out coffees and pastries next to the foyer. Would recommend this hotel and definitely use it again. Excellent value for money.

There is no breakfast available at the hotel but several breakfast locations close by.

An old little hotel located in the city center

Great location, only 15 minutes walk to the waterfront and the public market. The monorail station also could be reached within 10 minutes by feet. Old little hotel but quite nice designed and beautiful decorated. Bar and restaurant inside the hotel. The room is clean and nice decorated. Comfortable beds. Coffee machine inside the room.

The hotel looked much older and smaller than the pictures showed on booking.com Quite small and old room, not much space for 2 persons. There is no microwave, no refrigerator, no kettle inside the room. Quite disappointed! We tried to call the housekeeping and finally she sent us a small kettle. Thank you!

Nice hotel but management needs to lift its game

Very convenient location in downtown Seattle. Nice room, very comfortable bed. Good in room coffee. Great bar on ground floor with excellent staff.

The hotel will only do room service if you ask for it. We weren’t told about this when checking in and after a day out we got back to the room and it wasn’t done. Pretty disappointed. We asked a TV number of guests if they knew about this and they too were surprised. When I contacted reception they said a text message had been sent after checking in including this information. This is not enough. Most people on vacation don’t constantly check their messages and the reason put forward on the text was based on Covid issues. Covid’s well and truly over and a hotel of this calibre which charges accordingly needs to re-introduce daily service immediately or continue to risk negative reactions from guests. It’s an old building but the bathroom was really tiny with nowhere to put anything. Not sure if the coffee shop is owned by the hotel but to have one poor staff member trying to deal with large numbers of guests queuing up on a Saturday and Sunday morning is simply not good enough. Not fair on that person or the guests. Management needs to re-assess its staffing arrangements.

Exceptional

Our room had a view of the street and was more comfortable than we thought. Everything was clean & neat! 10-min walk to Pike Market Place, in the same street you can find a Starbucks, Cheesecake Factory, Arcade & Regal Cinema. There’s a parking garage right next to the hotel which charges $32 per 18-24 hours. Overall, great location & value!

Really nice location and the food and service were very nice. Just could have been a little cleaner.

Location was great, staff was friendly. Room was generously sized, but the bathroom was oddly tiny. The price was ok, but there was an NFL game in town so the price was pretty high in comparison to other nights in the same week.

When we got to our floor there was a room service tray outside of our room, but it took almost an entire day for someone to get the tray for some reason. TV didn't work at first, but they did call the engineer back from going home to fix it. So all in all, nothing that was a deal breaker, but stepping it up a little would make this an ultimate stay.

A fantastic hotel in the heart of Seattle

The location, reception staff and the hotel’s aesthetics were exceptional.

The room I got was very small and the lack of seating space (desk and a chair) had an effect on my stay. I was able to use the meeting room table in the lobby, but I would have preferred being able to do my work in my hotel room.

Stylish hotel in great location with excellent staff

True what others say about the hallways smelling like campfire, but I did not detect this scent in my room, and it was actually kinda pleasant in the hallway. The room was beautifully decorated with high end products in the bathroom and a very comfortable bed. Perfect location for exploring downtown, including Pikes Place and the Aquarium. A massive shoutout to the housekeeping and front desk staff, who located a piece of gold jewelry I left behind in the room, and held it in the hotel safe until I could return to retrieve it. Many, many thanks.

Woukd I book this hotel for more than one night other than necessity - no

Staff very friendly, common areas nicely decorated.

Bedroom very small - as was stated on the website but access to inside of the bed quite restricted given room orientation. Air conditioning too noisy to turn on plus the hotel or some property adjoining it has a conditioning system which generates quite a hum. 24 hours a day.
