The Arctic Club Hotel, Seattle

Classic style - beautiful look

Street noise late at night

Great character

Expensive parking

We liked the very comfortable bed, the high ceilings, and the jacuzzi tub.

The air conditioning was not very powerful, and the room, and lobby did not cool off completely.

Great service, beautiful hotel, great facilities.

No shuttle

Breakfast was great. Staff was extraordinarily attentive, nice, and helpful. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. We had a very nice view. The hotel‘s location downtown was perfect for us.

The front desk staff were very helpful and professional.

I love the fact that they try to maintain the original hotel as much as possible, its like stepping back in time when I walked in the lobby. The Valet service gave me piece of mind and we highly recommend everyone goes and buys a drink from Mike at the hotel bar!

The location as far as distances from attractions is amazing and a reason we will be returning to this hotel, but the views from the room are a bit of a let down with the lot across the street on the south side of the building.

Old architecture

Nothing really

very nostalgic feel , free breakfast was great

little high priced

location is directly across the street from Sound Transit light rail to Seattle-Tacoma airport, University of Washington and many other destinations.

Breakfast was incredible. Huge selection. The coffee was nice and strong.

$$$$ but I at least feel like I got what I paid for.

The breakfast was exceptional with good variety. The location made it easy to walk to the waterfront and tourist areas.
The historic significance of the hotel was interesting and very appropriate for our stay before an Alaskan cruise. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful.

Great location and historic touches.

Paid parking off site in a sketchy neighborhood. Seemed unsafe, but car ended up ok.

Great staff. Beautiful ambiance.

It is great that the place offers breakfast but something is off in the oil that they use for cooking.

Historic and pleasant and comfortable

being the city

Love the old world charm whilst still enjoying modern day amenities

Nothing

It was very loud late at night around 1am there was lots of booms going off or something happening outside that echo into the hotel. It made it hard to sleep. Also the dump site or homeless camp not sure what it is out our bedroom window was not nice to see.

Breakfast is excellent. The view from the room was the worst. I stayed in a room with a street view on a former trip which was better. The food service for meals other than the breakfast could be a lot better, I did not like that a 20% tip was included when the waitress did not deserve it. The hotel is wonderful otherwise and I really enjoyed my stay.

Food service outside of breakfast was not great. When it’s cold and wet outside and I don’t want to walk around with a whole bunch of street people, food service in the facility is a plus. I’ve visited the hotel twice and both times I would say that food service was a weak point.

If you wnat a break from the normal boring chain hotels stay here. It is a touch of class and elegance in Seattle.

The Arctic Club Hotel is a classic era hotel located perfectly in the heart of Seattle. The lobby, reception, bar and common areas will transport you to another time. The staff are amazing, friendly and hospitable. The Polar Bar is a wonderful area to have evening meals and drinks or relax after a busy day touring. The rooms are classicly decorated and very comfortable. Beds, linens and pillows are very nice. Bathrooms are large and comfortable. The breakfast in the Juno room is beyond good. This hotel is located in the perfect location if you use public transportation during your stay. The light rail and virtually every bus line connects directly in front of the hotel. You will not need to rent a car if you stay here. Ferries to other areas are walking distance away as is Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square. If you are seeking a classic experience in a piece of Seattle history, I can't imagine you can do better than this hotel. Highly recommended.

The area near this hotel and most of Pioneer Square is the center of Seattle's homeless population. Also sirens are heard frequently throughout the day and night. These might be issues for those who are not used to this.

Fabulous bar with amazing drinks!! We saw a Candlelight Concert so the hotel
was perfect!

clean and very quiet great views and nice ambiance

Sharon at the front desk. She went out of her way to help get my phone back by calling it until someone answered. Breakfast was a bit better than the average free hotel breakfast too.

Great room and experience

The breakfast was quite adequate. The hotel room was large, comfortable, and very clean. The staff was responsive. The location is within walking distance of Harborview Medical Center.

Food was great!

The old world charm, comfy beds and exceptional staff.

It took an hour and a half to get our car from valet parking. It was chaotic and truly a mess. We were standing outside waiting all that time. For a valet only hotel you would believe their system for car retrieval would be a well oiled machine.
