The Edgewater Hotel

Wonderful hotel! Its rustic touch combined with the city and water views will transport you and will make your experience a memorable one. The restaurant is amazing, the food delicious, room service is outstanding, but I have to say that what impressed me most was the front desk. Such friendly and helpful attitude is hard to find now a days, specially across all members of the front desk. Special kudos to Damienne. She is the epitome of great customer service! Thank you.

An Awesome spot if your doing the tourist thing in seattle. Its super central, a ton of good places to eat within walking distance and if you get an ocean view/​harbor view its Amazinng! Only thing about the place is the staff needs work. Dinning room was a disaster. The hostess was eating? in the kitchen and took wayy too long to figure out were just standing there. One of the other diners joked and told us to seat ourselves. maybe they had waited as well? then the bus boy asked if we wanted coffee but then never came back. Normally i would only be Slightly annoyed. But i had a 14 hour work day ahead of me. Here for buisness not pleasure. And i NEEEDED my coffee. 15 – 20 minutes later when i finally got the attention of the manage i got
coffee. Mostly cuz there were no servers in sight. Or worse. They dont make eye contact. But food is delicious. A bit pricey but thats what hotels do.
In general its fine im sure. The rooms were always clean. We had some issues woth the fireplace the first night. but it got fixed. Ill definetly be staying here again!

Beautiful hotel, accommodations were wonderful and food was superb … With exception of the dining room, staff were significantly less than stella! Attitudes with a capital «A». I was in Seattle for conference, arrived day early and stayed a day later … Would have greatly appreciated friendlier staff

As much as the location is fantastic, the bar is total mayhem. Too loud and probably the worst service in the city. The waitresses are the worst! Obnoxious! Service is perfunctory at best…

After our 7 day Alaska cruise, we chose to stay here for our last night in Seattle. Amazing room with a waterfront view. Toasty fireplace with our bottle of wine to finish celebrating our 30^th Wedding anniversary.
Good food and excellent service.

We are in the process of selecting a venue for our wedding, and The Edgewater has an incredible view and good reputation. I’ve also attended several weddings there, including my own sister’s wedding as well as close friends’ weddings. Each event was beautiful and appeared to be well run. Other venues in the Seattle are that we had already toured were The Four Seasons, Sorrento Hotel, and Newcastle Golf (to name a few).
Unfortunately, my fiancé and I had a disappointing experience when we went to tour The Edgewater yesterday. The catering manager that we worked with via email was on top of things, shared great info, and was looking to be nice to work with — that is until we met her in person. Out of respect, I will not name her, but she ruined it for us. She was completely disengaged and quite frankly seemed out of it (like when you are groggy from waking up from a nap — which is what she looked like). She was not helpful at all, and it felt like a total waste of our time. To be more specific, we arrived 10 minutes early, had to ask the Front desk twice for her, and she finally arrived about 15 minutes late but looked totally confused when she greeted us (if you could call that a greeting). It started off on the wrong foot but hey, it’s all good (though she didn’t even apologize). It just got worse from there — she did absolutely NOTHING to sell the venue. All of her answers tended to be yes/​no answers with no additional information, and I felt uncomfortable the entire time we were with her. My fiancé and I are both personable, and he was trying harder than me to try to strike up a conversation with her, but it just wasn’t happening. When I asked her where people generally take pictures, she just told us where but didn’t offer to show us the spaces. Then, she just led us to the valet, as if to tell us to leave. I quickly became disinterested in the venue due to the interaction, so it was just as well that we cut the tour short.
Again, to be fair — she was great over email, and others that have had weddings there really have loved their experience — our in-​person experience was just very poor, so we immediately took The Edgewater off of our list of venues. I hardly ever write negative reviews on Unilocal,but this one rose to the level where we needed to share. Maybe she was just having a bad day, or maybe she didn’t want our business because we are having a smaller wedding. Not sure, but either way — it was probably the worst hospitality experience I’ve ever had.
So — one star for the beautiful venue, one star for the great experiences in the past.

The Edgewater is a great place to stay for exploring Seattle but is the perfect place to stay before going on a cruise (no taxi necessary… You can literally see the boats pull up right next to the hotel).
The lounge inside (Six Seven) had fantastic live music and drinks on the Friday we visited. The gift shop had good quality jewelry and clothing as well as coffee and bottles of wine. The hotel has a free shuttle on the top of the hour to stops within a mile such as Pikes Place Market.
The rooms are small. I didn’t realize it would be a Queen sized bed rather than the King I’m accustomed to, and there wasn’t much space for luggage. But, even though the room was a city view, it had a peak of water view and the staff was super friendly so overall I was very happy staying here.

The service at Edgewater was good. The food was really delicious! I had the filet mignon and it melted in my mouth. What stood out to me most was the lobster Mac and cheese! Must try! Overall, experience was great. I’m in love with the atmosphere and the scenery Edgewater has to offer!!!

The hotel was pretty nice, lobby/​lounge area was really chill to stare at water and hang out, the restaurant was good… the small appetizer poki tacos were mouth watering and amazing… it’s walking distance to the pike market, space needles is a good walk, rather take a über or taxi… the gum walls down the street also lol the room was cozy but the bed wasn’t that comfortable for me, staff was more than friendly

4 stars for the views, our spacious room, and the kind staff. We got lucky with out room because it was more spacious than most, on the 4^th floor (the highest), and had a great view of the Space Needle. Downfall was the train going by at night. If the bell sounds weren’t enough, we had a train that screeched by consistently from 4– 6 am and sounded like nails on a chalkboard. The ear plugs the hotel provided cannot even protect you from that mind numbing sound. Second downfall was the miscommunication with the front desk staff. I was told that we would be able to use their bikes but when I arrived, the lady said that they don’t rent their bikes out till summer. However, their info books said April. Not a fan of inconsistent and wrong information. Parking was around 49 a night with tax!
Positives include the endearing lobby with great views of the water. I loved that they were able to provide a fridge and microwave in our room, perfect for our late night munching of our leftover food and Pike Place goodies. The hotel was in a great location, allowing us to walk to many of our destinations (10 min walk to Pike). The room itself has a cozy lodge feel complete with a fireplace and a stone shower that even comes with a rain shower head. I would recommend getting a room that faces the water next time!

The view from our room was amazing! We got coffee every morning from the gift shop and chose valet for every departure and arrival. What an amazing spot! We were there 3 days and every day a wedding was happening. It was pretty magical for a girl that despises weddings.
Great location! Friendly Staff! Great Room! I’ll be staying or recommending again!

We want to thank the staff who were all very sweet and took care of us, and especially Kahlia! You all made my fiancée Birthday so special! The birthday treat was perfect, and we can’t stop telling everyone what a wonderful time we had staying with you! It was definitely a trip to remember and love your Hotel! Our room was perfect with our ocean view and patio. We loved the fireplace, comfy bed, and cozy bear ottoman was so cute! The restaurant was great overlooking the water too and the food was delicious! We really like the inviting décor with fireplaces everywhere in the lobbies, and were recommended really good restaurants and places to visit from your helpful and friendly staff. We look forward to coming back soon

The preferred Seattle hotel by the BEATLES THEMSELVES!
Found an awesome deal online to for $ 125/​night (2 nights in Jan). Message me if you want details.
This is pretty much the only hotel on the waterfront that literally sits over the water. The service was fantastic. So good that the first night, our AC was having problems, and the next night, they moved us to a room that had a bay view (a room that should be $ 50 more per night).
Our favorite part of the room itself are the fireplaces. The fireplaces are gas, which is cool because all you have to do is press the button by the thermostat. Instant fire!
Another plus to the hotel is their lounge area at night. It overlooks the bay, and the drinks are incredible. There were quite a few people there, and on Friday and Saturday nights, they have a live band. Rock and roll. like the Beatles!

I went to Seattle for a wedding and I needed to get a hotel for a night and was pleasantly surprised at my stay at the Edgewater. The staff is very friendly, the location is great, the décor is really fun, a beautiful view, the hotel and my room were very clean, and there’s a fireplace in my room!!! Holy smokes can this get any better??? Pretty sweet deal if you ask me. However, the reason I gave four stars is because the bed and the pillows were not that comfortable. The Edgewater is a pricy hotel and that’s why you have all these great perks, but I was expecting a better nights rest. A little disappointed with that.
We actually changed hotels the next night. It’s still a great spot and I recommend staying at least one night here.

My real star assignment is 3.75 but as you know, we can use only whole stars.
The service so far has been nice and professional.
The décor is really fun with real wood and stone aspects in and out of the rooms. They do the «northwest theme» really well. We chose to stay here to have a fireplace in our room which is surprisingly rare in Seattle. The water views are great and it’s properly over the water so if you’re on floor 1, it’s a pretty surreal view like you’re on a boat.
The coffee/​tea maker is a little shoddy and not very tasty brands and our TV had a burnt out line through the middle of it which was bothersome.
We may or may not be back; it’ll depend on how much we need a fireplace in our next stay.
On a side note, the food is great!

The rooms have a fireplace and balcony. No robes in the rooms. Great cover band in the bar.

Great vibe at night. Esp on weekends. Live music. Food is ok. Rooms are awesome. Ask for the Beetles tour.

Great service, good food/​location/​facilities, and love the history of the hotel, but our room wasnt the cleanest. Stained lamps, dirty windows/​doorways/​balcony chairs, torn/​soiled sheets, and minor or overlooked details here and there, but still didnt quite ruin a birthday stay, as front desk was helpful and understanding and provided a comped breakfast for the trouble. Loved the crabcake and lodge breakfast though
Id like to visit again, but will think twice considering the price for the reputation…

We stayed here Fri & Sat night for a holiday stay-​cation and loved it. Room was clean, and we especially liked the fireplace and soaking tub, and the view was beautiful. Only complaint would be with check in and check out, which was slow.

Ever since we went to the Sorrento recently and saw the remodeling job they did in the Fireside room (cried a little inside, spoke in low voices about how we hated it so) we’ve been looking for another go-​to family cocktail spot for the winter that feels Christmas-​y. We popped into the Edgewater and are so glad we did!
Right when you walk in — the area to the left of the bar is so comfy, cozy, and totally decked out with holiday décor. There’s a big fireplace, large comfy chairs, and games/​smaller tables.
You can order from the bar or service can meet you in the lounge area.
We will definitely return!

I don’t normally post bad reviews. In fact I wasn’t planning on really sharing my bad experience with the world regarding my stay at the edgewater in March this year. But then today I received a letter informing me that my cc information may have been stolen in a POS system when I stayed there.
The fireplace was supposed to work – it didn’t. I called to complain, they told me to fiddle with the control and it should turn on. It didn’t work but I never bothered to call back.
We were in a non-​smoking room and had a cigarette on the balcony we paid A LOT of extra money for. I figured since we were outside, it wouldn’t matter. We got handed a $ 250 cleaning bill.
These people are crooks and if my bill wasn’t the initial indication, it certainly was the letter 9 months later that they discovered fraudulent activity and POS malware on their cc system and that my credit was exposed.
Stay far away if you want to have a good experience. Much more cost appropriate places to stay with better quality accommodations and service.

This is a must-​stay if you’re in Seattle and want to try something down on the bay.
The customer service is fantastic, and (as the hotel boats), fireplace in every room!
The hotel restaurant also has a great wine selection, good food and drinks, and presents a lovely dinner if you’re staying in.
This is our favorite place to stay when we’re in Seattle.

So my partner and I just spent 3 nights at The Edgewater and out experience was really exceptional. We do a lot of traveling and
The Edgewater met and sometimes exceed our expectations on this trip.
The rooms are very cozy with fireplaces in them. They have gorgeous stone showers and the beds are pretty comfy.
They offer a free shuttle that will take you anywhere within a mile and a half and just about everything you’d want to see is within that mile and a half. (Pike’s Place, The Space Needle, The Underground Tour, Ferry Rides, Bus stations, etc.)
The restaurant inside (six seven) has great food and they have really good beers on tap. And the service was good. If I had a complaint id say it’s a little pricey.
The hotel staff service was noticeably better than some places I’ve stayed. They let us have an easy check in and held our bags while we explored the market on our last day before our late flight. But what I noticed most was the house keeping staff. They were always really friendly and always said hello. It was just a know touch and you can tell they train their staff to go the extra mile. Well done. We will make the Edgewater out go to place for lodging in Seattle.

Truly enjoyed the stay at the edge water. We had a great view of the space needle and the in room fireplace was a nice treat. Very cozy.
Hotel Bar and restaurant were both worth the visit.

I’m actually quite surprised to see negative reviews. My husband and I just stayed there for a week, and we absolutely loved everything about the hotel. Very friendly and kind staff, beautiful setting, most convenient location, outstanding décor, etc. What’s not to love?!
Unfortunately we didn’t get to eat at the restaurant, but both the restaurant and the bar were beautiful. We will have to visit both the next time we are there.
The valet is pricy, and to park over night is $ 40+! But no big deal! There are ample street parking all around, and they’re free from 8pm to 8am. So the entire time we were there, we didn’t even spend $ 20 for overnight parking.
Thank you, Edgewater! I’m telling everyone about our wonderful experience!

Great Happy Hour spot, panoramic views of the Seattle sound, fun woodsy modern décor. We came on a Sunday & the happy hour menu was great! I had the «organic salad «it had red quinoa, bulgar, arugula, beets, cucumber, avocado & a mint– lime dressing. Divine ! And for 6 $. I will definitely be back, just to have this salad ! Hubby had the lobster mac n cheese (shut your mouth good), tempura asparagus spear (fantastic) & lobster sliders (highly recommend) We sipped on cocktails, soaked in the view & lovely ambience and absorbed all the beauty Seattle has to offer !

This place sits right on the (lake?). It’s got a very unique look to it. In the drop off area there is a huge fireplace with a water fountain around it. It tricked me everytime I went outside that it was raining outside, because that’s exactly how it sounds.
The hotel itself looks sort of like a Utah ski lodge or something along those rustic lines. The room itself is very interesting. The perks are the working fireplace with two comfy chairs for lounging by it. The beds are also decently comfy. And the A/​C and heat work well.
The cons of the room are that the walls seem to be pretty transparent which it comes to sound. I can recall several occasions where I thought someone was entering my room but in fact it was the room next to me. The room also had a damp/​cold feeling to it, perhaps it could use a dehumidifier.
The bathroom was interesting as well. They had like 3 lights and one of them you had to turn on from a switch outside of the bathroom. Despite the 3 lights there was no fan. You entered the bathroom by two glass doors, almost what’d you see in a house to enter a dining room. There wasn’t any sort of ventilation so after a shower the whole bathroom was completely fogged and steamed up like a sauna.
The shower itself is weird. There’s the first piece of glass like there normally would be on the shower wall /​«door», but then there’s not another piece where there normally would be to slide shut. So you’re basically showering in the open, and water gets all over the floor. Very strange. In addition, they didn’t have soap or shampoo but some all-​in-​one hair and body wash from like a soap dispenser. I also thought was weird.
The staff at this hotel was very friendly, the views were fantastic, and it was in a great location and very easy to get a cab. But the room itself was just a little uncomfortable for my taste. For the amount of money it costs to stay here, I’d rather go somewhere else. But if convenience isn’t your #1 priority and aura is, then this is your place.

I’ve recently been a vendor at a wedding at Edgewater Hotel.
The Goods: Obviously the venue is absolutely beautiful, and it is a great location, some of the waitstaff were lovely
The Bad: I was shocked at how some of the staff treated the bride, after it came out that a major mistake was made on the restaurants behalf, which resulted in the Bride and her guests breaking down and moving their own tables. The person who seemed to be in charge treated us very rudely and told one of the waiters that was taking our order that it «didn’t matter» regarding the cook on our proteins. We have visited hundreds of venues but this one takes the cake on how they treated their bride.

Let me start by saying this is the first negative review I’ve ever left on Unilocal.
I stayed at the Edgewater on July 10^th and have held off on writing this for nearly a month but it keeps coming into my mind and I just have to do it.
The thing is, the hotel is actually really nice. Our room was small and relatively pricy but it’s a beautiful waterfront hotel in an ideal location.
The frustration didn’t come until the morning after. The hotel bill was slid under my door as expected and I was a bit shocked at my $ 49 valet charge (it’s valet only at this hotel) but that’s really on me for not asking beforehand.
When I picked up my car, I was rather surprised to have the radio station switched to a country music station which I never listen too but the real shock came when I got about 10 miles out of town and saw my gas light come on.
I had just filled up about 50 miles outside of Seattle on my way into town and had over ¾ of a tank of fuel when I left it at valet the night before.
Absolutely crazy! Someone not only took my car for a joyride while I was paying them nearly $ 50 to take care of it, but they drove enough to actually use an entire tank of gas!
I almost called the hotel but I decided to just enjoy the rest of my vacation rather than starting a fight over a tank of fuel and some serious disrespect.
So I’m leaving it on here for anyone and everyone to read instead. Do stay at the hotel, it’s really nice, but absolutely DO NOT USE THEIR VALET SERVICE!
There’s plenty of places around town where you can park and walk or take an über to the hotel if you decide to stay at the Edgewater.

I stayed at this hotel for 1 night (7÷17÷2015) prior to boarding a cruise ship to Alaska. The location is perfect for getting to the ship piers and a quick walk to Pike Place Market. There was a mix up on the part of our Travel Agency that resulted in one of our two room reservations being canceled before we arrived but the Edgewater fortunately had another room for my wife and I (nicer than what we originally booked). We ended up with a city view room, king bed, huge bathroom with french doors and a balcony. It was pretty sweet. We could easily see the Space Needle from our balcony.
The lobby is gorgeous and we sat in some cozy chairs there to peep out at the really nice water view. There’s a little souvenir shop which sells fresh coffee, t-​shirts and most importantly single beers (try the Pike Market IPA). I can’t say if there will ever be another occasion for me to be in Seattle and in need of a hotel room but I would definitely stay at the Edgewater if the need arose. The prices were slightly lower than NYC, I think we paid about $ 360 for our room.

If you are looking for an unique luxury hotel near popular Seattle attractions, then Edgewater Hotel is it! As the only waterfront hotel in Seattle, its view of the bay from the lobby and the room (if you pay extra to upgrade to the waterfront side) is incomparable. The room is also very comfortable and the restroom is extremely well-​equipped and state-​of-​the-​art!
My only complaint is that the valet parking is $ 47+tax per night. Other than that, I would recommend Edgewater for a luxurious stay in Seattle!

I came up to Seattle recently for a company function and was excited to be able to stay here, as I had heard good things about this place. First of all, the location is great. Right in the heart of so many things that make Seattle a fun place to visit– Pike Place Market, the ferries, the Space Needle, etc. Not only that, but the hotel is actually on the water! I loved their lodge/​sitting room area, where you can sit and enjoy water that literally would be at your feet if the window wasn’t there! A killer view, for sure! It’s also fun to see the photos on the wall of all the famous musicians who have stayed at the Edgewater through the years.
I do have to say that our room was pretty small, but it was clean, modern, and no funky odors. The bathroom feels a little minimalist, but the bed was comfy and we enjoyed our stay.
Other things to note– we heard from local friends that the in house restaurant is very good (shame that we already had our meals planned out) and the parking on site is just valet, $ 42/​night with in and out ability. There is a garage that is directly across the street that charges by the hour, $ 21 for a 24 hour period, but of course, no in and out ability without getting a new ticket.

Nette Einrichtung, aber unser Zimmer war deutlich zu laut, obwohl es zur Wasserseite war. Auf der Bahnstrecke fahren Tag und Nacht (Güter-)Züge lang.

Sehr schöné Zimmer mit Kamin und luxuriösem Bad! Unsere waren auf die Wasserseite. Am ersten Morgen beim Blick aus dem Fenster lag ein Kreuzfahrtschiff fast vor dem Fenster. Beeindruckend!
