Louise, May 2025
Pros (+) Location great. Staff helpful. Room spacious. Bed very comfortable.
Cons (-) Bathroom wasn’t great - nasty smell from the plumbing. Shower pathetic in respect to pressure and water temperature. Very poor for a hotel of this status. We also found the bar very impersonal and not very comfortable.

Perfect hotel for Christmas holiday! The decoration was top notch. The Christmas tree was so beautiful. Hence, it's getting very crowded (and noisy) in the evening for people coming over for drinks/dinner in the small lobby. Location wise was okay, 10 mins walk from Pike Place market. Room and facilities were amazing (Fairmont standard).
