Hotel Max

Chic and affordable with great amenities

by AlleciaV at Citysearch

My husband and I stayed here as we were preparing to move up to Seattle and I would highly recommend it for business and leisure travelers alike. The location is great—easy walk to downtown shopping, Belltown dining and even Capitol Hill if you don’t mind a short climb.

Hotel Max is in an older building and rooms are small but efficient. However the rooms and lobby feel chic and modern. All the little amenities I want in a hotel—free wifi, a small but useful fitness center—are here, along with some fun amenities like a menu of different pillows.

• Pros: Central location, free wifi, fitness center, fun decor
• Cons: Older building means rooms are on the small side

So hip with cool Seattle art on every single hotel door

by Ang B at Citysearch

Wow, is this hotel hip and trendy! The lobby has super hip couches that are way comfy and ultra modern. Each floor has a different name, and on every single door you have a different piece of art done in black & white photography. So your door may have the famous Elephant car wash on it, it might have some people rockin out on it, or maybe even naked manequins. So this means when you are coming home late, you will not mix up room 503 with room 504 because you will recognize your art piece on the door.

The inside of the room is just as hip as the outside. Fabulous decor with more art work. The bathrooms are super cute. The rooms do seem quite small & squishy, but other than that, nice. You can choose what kind of bible you want (Mormon, Scientology, etc) and you can choose your pillow (hard, soft, etc). I wonder if you could order one pillow of each? Now that would be cool. To be able to try out all the pillows & see which is the best.

• Pros: Unique door itentifiers, hip & cool
• Cons: small rooms, small beds

Swanky hotel for the hip

by n9840153 , Citysearch Contributor at Citysearch

Swanky hotel centrally located in downtown seattle attached to the asian restuarant/bar Red Fin is a great place to stay if you need a place to crash after a night out in seattle or possibly to recommend to out of town guests. The hotel is fabulously decorated with pictures of the seattle grunge scene and old seattle signs. The rooms are nice with windows overlooking seattle. One of the best things about this hotel is rather than just getting a regular old bible you get your choice of religous literature and the list is quite impressive. You also get your choice of pillow preferance and can chose from a varity of options in this area as well. Definetely a lot more fun than you regular boring seattle chain hotel.

• Pros: the art, religious freedom, pillow preference

Just what the weary traveler ordered

I booked my room for the tail end of a business trip as I was arriving in town late and had to be back downtown again the next morning. I knew I'd just want to be comfy and get some sleep instead of driving back and forth.

The whole day traveling all I could think about was getting checked in and getting into a robe and climbing into bed. Getting to the hotel was a breeze from the airport, the location is amazing and the 24 hour valet parking was such a bonus with a late arrival. I was in my room within 40 minutes of the plane landing!

The overall decor of the hotel is very funky and chic. I love the graphics on the room doors and the original artwork in the rooms is really amazing and a lovely touch. I was pleasantly surprised by the calming mid-tone gray paint color in the room, gave a very cozy feel.

The bed, linens and pillows are wonderful but the best part was the robe. Holy comfortable batman! It is light weight with a super soft fine terry cloth lining. I may have to take one home with me!

Bonus: Twitter folks will be pleasantly surprised at their special discounted rate and complimentary wifi.

• Pros: BEST ROBE EVER, comfy bed/pillows, twitter perks, Jen!
• Cons: Limited late night room service
