One of my favorites of the Marriott brand, definitely. Prior to our longer vacation in Seattle, we originally planned to only stay two weeks. But this location absolutely won us over. The Seattle Marriott Waterfront is about 10 minutes walking distance to Pike Place Market and 20 minutes downtown. While it's a bit of a trek, you're also about a half hour jaunt from a Whole Foods. This location has amazing outside seating, which we adored, and you can take the adjacent elevator up to Pike Place Market if you don't want to walk up the steps near the aquarium. To go into the the space itself, the sound proofing can definitely vary between rooms. Most of our stay was in a quiet higher up corner room facing the street, but we also stayed in a room closer to the train tracks side which was very loud. Our corner room had an amazing maid who was the absolute best so our mainstay room was always super clean, but some of the other rooms we found a little less airy. It's also not a normal Marriott M lounge in that there's no lounge breakfast buffet, although they do put out coffee and snacks in the afternoon, and light bites in the evening. Although I found the service in the lobby bar average, the front desk associates were always fantastic. Big shout out to them for always being so amazing! Only thing I'd change about the space would be adding a card reader to the outside of the lounge, since it locks from the inside and it's a pain going back in through the lobby just to grab a napkin. All in all, we definitely love this Marriott location and look forward to visiting in the future! read more

The rooms are quaint, I wish the bathroom doors had locks. Had a semi water view and the balconies are super small, but this was ok.

The Marriott Waterfront is a nice, modern hotel very close to Pier 66 where Norwegian cruises embark. Literally just across the street and about a block down. The hotel is nice and the rooms are spacious and modern with a lot of electrical and USB outlets within easy reach. The restaurant was closed when we were there and replaced with 'counter' service from the bar. Generally worked OK but they should drop the price if you're taking care of most of the service yourself. Food quality was quite good. There's a M Club off the lobby that is very nice, if you're a Marriott member with sufficient status. read more

This is a great stay before or after a cruise. It's right across from Pier 66 and the valets will even transport your luggage to the port for you (tip well bc it's worth it). The bar has really weird hours, which is super annoying, but the staff is great and the rooms are clean. Not luxury but nice and clean. read more

I'll make this very simple. I've stayed at nicer Hampton Inns! For the money the rooms are barely average. You do not get an upscale experience but it's proximity to the NCL terminal cannot be beat. It has location, location, location. read more

Seattle Marriott Waterfront - Room with a view - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

An extremely clean lodging facility. Valet parking and a mini mart in case you want to pay $3 for a Snickers. There is a restaurant and bar on the first floor. Conference rooms were spacious and clean and the temperature was pleasant. The bathrooms adjacent to the conference rooms were well decorated and very well maintained. No laundry facility on site, however there is a new contract to send your items off-site to be laundered and can be returned same day if turned in early. No shampoo, conditioner and soap dispenser in the shower. Small travel size bottles are available in the bathroom for your use if needed. Staff and housekeeping personnel were engaging and happy to help with any questions or assistance. My room had an ironing board and working iron, safe and plenty of outlets/USB ports in the room. Excellent view of the waterfront and some rooms have patios where you can step out and enjoy the view. There is a gym and swimming pool as well as ice machines on varying floors. The "M Lounge" is accessible for Diamond and Platinum Marriott members. Inside, they offer amenities similar to an airport lounge. Upon entering the foyer of the hotel, it is well decorated and spacious. There are dividers at the check in desk for everyone's safety. Vaccinated guests are not required to wear a mask when transiting. I feel confident that if in the area I would choose this location for lodging. read more

On a Saturday afternoon in May, my family and reserved a room for one night for next day Alaska cruise. It is very convenient across from pier 66. We arrived at 1pm and wasn't able to check in early. The manager was nice and chatty with all the guests and gave out water bottles. We end up waiting till 4:10 pm at check in time. She apologized for the delay and said 2 maids was out sick so there was a delay of cleaning our room and it was cruise day. People leave later to check in hence we didn't get our room at 1pm. Others has the wait problem too. The room was nice and had a slight view of the pier. The 2 beds was nice and firm and clean bathroom. It's 3 blocks from pike place and lots of road construction on that street. Next day we checked out and walked over to the pier. read more

Just completed a brief two night stay at the Seattle Marriott Waterfront as a quick vacation away from work. The pluses: Front desk staff were all helpful - Tamera, Daisy, Reggie, Alana were all super helpful, friendly, professional. Since it would be my first time in Seattle, I had phoned ahead of my trip and spoke over the phone to Tamera, who provided helpful tips regarding the area, transportation options to/from SeaTac Airport, as well as general stay questions. Daisy was also helpful the day I ventured out to Pike Place, asked for directions, realized I was underdressed for the cold (the wind chill factor is something else in Seattle during the winter months - four layers of clothing is not enough!!), but was friendly and helpful nonetheless. Hotel exterior is clean, staff are all friendly. I requested some toiletries I wasn't able to pack since I had brought only a carry-on, and housekeeping fulfilled the request within 30 minutes. Check-in and check-out process was efficient, no hidden charges on the bill upon check-out, in-room internet was complimentary as a result of being a Marriott Rewards member. There is a pantry/convenience store located near the front desk that is open 24 hours - prices are fair considering there isn't a 7/11 or Target nearby. The not-so-pluses: The hotel is definitely showing it's age. I think it was built in the early 2000s - so almost 20 years old. There were some blemishes/dirty spots in my hotel room. The in-room safe was frustrating to try to use, despite following the instructions (which is like 2-steps) to a "T", it kept error-ing out. The refrigerator took forever to get cold. I don't believe there was a temperature gauge or dial - at least not one that was readily accessible to the hotel guest. The desk chair malfunctioned - the lever to raise the seat worked... but the seat would sink each time you sit on it. And I'm not massive or anything if "weight" might be an issue you're thinking of. Although I think my room had fair sound insulation - there is a freight train that runs alongside the rear corridor of the hotel. I imagine if you have a city view, your room might bear more of the brunt from directly facing the train tracks. Speaking of sound insulation - the walls are relatively thin, and you can definitely hear conversations from people passing by in the hallway. My room directly faced the housekeeping storage, and I could hear their excited conversations for most of the day. Although not the hotel's fault, there is construction alongside Alaskan Way, making it rather difficult to walk to Pike Place Market - which is geographically, less than 1 mile away. I ended up taking an Uber both ways ($10-ish in the app with a $5 cash tip), which also kept me out of the arctic winds. Overall a great hotel stay considering the blemishes. The front desk staff really help make the difference. I could definitely see myself returning in the future - maybe when it's warmer outside and I don't need four layers of clothes on to stay warm. read more

The cruise ship dock here most of the day... they sail away around 4pm ish... so i have to standby like a hawk to get a glimpse of ocean view. The second day I thought I'd enjoy the "partial ocean view" a little more, but the cruise ship docked before I even got a chance to do that. I usually get up around 5:30AM. I don't recommend staying here because you don't quite get what you paid for. And the staff is very sorry about. Well, me too. read more

I have such mixed feelings about this Marriott. My bf and I were visiting Seattle and decided to get the waterfront view king room. The room was nice and spacious, very clean (maybe newly remodeled). The view was gorgeous. You can see the Ferris wheel at Pike place on the left and the mountains on the right. I booked this hotel specifically because it has an indoor/outdoor pool. I really wanted to soak up the sun and get a little color. The problem is, the pool is over the trash area so it smelled so horribly. Also above is a bridge where people walk by and can oversee the pool area. I felt like ppl were creeping and it was quite uncomfortable. I only laid out one day and was not interested in the pool anymore. Another big problem is the internet in this hotel sucks. I don't know if it's just our room, but the internet was essentially non-existent! We even upgraded and paid for the quicker internet but that didn't do anything! My bf was still working on our trip so this was a huge inconvenience factor for us. His calls kept dropping and he wasn't able to work. He even called the help desk but they were unable to help us. The hotel was also fully booked so we weren't able to move to another room. Overall, it hasn't been a great experience staying at this Marriott. If you need Wi-Fi, I would suggest you choose a different hotel. read more

EXTREMELY thin walls... nice place to stay if you're a heavy sleeper but otherwise I'm not sure it's worth it. The location itself is great since it's pretty walkable and the views are nice if you choose a room with a view. The staff was very kind and helpful. read more

Beautiful hotel that is very clean and well maintained. Front desk very friendly and helpful. We had three rooms pre cruise. All very clean and comfortable. Best part is you just walk across the street and board the ship! If we ever cruise out of Seattle again we will definitely stay here. read more

Absolutely horrible. We had reservations two months in advance and arrived at the hotel after a long flight. The hotel overbooked their rooms and told us they had no room for us but had made arrangements for us to stay at another hotel. It was 11 pm and we waited in the lobby area for another hour before they got us a taxi. They said we would be contacted in the morning by Richard or Wendy to make arrangements on getting us to the dock in time for our cruise. Well they never called. It was a complete disaster and so unprofessional of them. Oh yeah I forgot when we waited in the lobby they were actually checking in other people. I guess the discounted MILITARY/Veteran rate is the first to go when a suit walks in. I think they have forgotten who fights for our freedom and country. So sad. read more

This hotel is centrally located within walking distance of the Public Market and there are many eateries around it. I was staying on the 8th floor, where I understand was recently remodeled and it was beautiful with a side view of the bay. The balcony is small, about the size of cherry-picker cage but there were big clumps of bird poop (on the sliding door screen too) that stayed with us the entire 3-days so had to be careful about where I stood. I had the Elite Status via timeshare so was provided access to the Fitness Center and the Hospitality room where there were warm breakfast sandwiches, chips, pastries in the morning, and soft drinks. It also has tables to eat that came in handy after walking back from The Biscuit Bitch for breakfast. The coffee brewing machine failed to work so I was unable to get my prescribed Decaf coffee but there is regular coffee in the lobby in the mornings. To acquire Decaf I was directed to the Hook & Plow restaurant on campus and they provided at no charge. The Fitness Center is well equipped but it is tight in there. There were two of us each day trying to find space to workout using the dumbbells and I conceded to setting up between two pieces of equipment no one ever used. The equipment was stocked with elliptical machines, several treadmills, full set of dumbbell weights, a couple of workout benches, thick yoga matts and some LifeFitness equipment intended for specific muscles. Towels were provided as well and sometimes there were cleaning wipes. The resident restaurant, Hook & Plow, is fabulous for breakfast. I had the Florentine Eggs Benedict that was absolutely divine (the English muffins were buttery) and the spuds of potato were nicely seasoned and crunch on the outside. I highly recommend this restaurant. I noticed signage that indicated this hotel is also a place for the cruise ship passengers to stay, as it docks on the waterfront of this hotel, but was fortunate not to have timed my trip during its stop at the port. read more

Stayed here for several years. Service has declined to the point my husband and I will not stay here again. Paid for 5 days/nights over 4k. Requested additional items when booked and did not have upon arrival (not outrages requests ((additional towels and blankets)) prior to arrival) end of March 2026. Staff was unhappy to speak to us all except a few. My husband reached out to management and never received a response during our stay. I will add we had a wonderful experience with the hotel from 2019 to 2022. The location is top tier but the hospitality was no longer there, so disheartening. Beautiful lobby and rooms are clean and views are exceptional from the "waterfront view" suite. However without good service the experience lacks tremendously. Do not order the pizza it is not good even by low standard. Chicken wings and salad are good. Even over a 5 day stay you will have to purchase all drinking water as they only allow 4 small bottle water per stay even without cleaning rooms. Highly recommend not staying here longer then one night. Staff does not seem happy to help unless it is early morning. Breakfast restaurant does not take reservations and it is a very long wait (35+ min), even if many vacant tables are visibly available. Do not expect good service here. It was extremely poor and we do not require royalty treatment. My husband and I would rather stay at a lower stat hotel treated as appreciated customers. ​ read more

Location location location! We had a Corner room with a balcony that was to die for. This was within walking distance of everything. Pike place market, the piers, space needle, Chihuly museum.

When I travel, I typically stay at Marriott hotels. This particular Marriotts Location has some of the most breathtaking views of the harbor without leaving the comfort of your room. The staff was great, but due to the age of COVID-19, nothing amenity wise in the hotel was open, of course, which wasn't an issue for me. The main issue I have with this Marriott is that I feel it needs some renovation. The room decor is a little outdated and there weren't too many TV channels available. I would love to see this hotel running to its full capability, I would love to visit Seattle again, and when I do, The Seattle Marriott Waterfront will be on the list of hotels to stay. read more

This hotel is pretty nice. I will say the front desk staff was very pleasant and i thought the room was pretty. I was told this is a room with a view of the water, but it actually has a not so nice view of the buildings next to it and if you lean off the balcony and look to the side you can see water. I was also disappointed by the fitness center, it looks like it hasn't been remodeled in a very long time and you're really not getting anything other than dumbbells and treadmills. It wasn't a bad stay, but I probably won't be back. read more

Rude front desk staffer, extremely crowded and chaotic lobby, and HVAC going on and off all night preventing the ability to sleep.

Room and hotel were clean. Plenty of space in the room and lots of seating downstairs to spread out and work or socialize. Friendly staff. The location is very close to Pikes Market and the aquarium, however, because it is at the water level, you have to climb three or four flights of stairs or ride a (smelly) public elevator to get up to the level where the Market is. read more

When booking a big name hotel like Marriot, you don't expect to experience nickel-and-diming for basic amenities. Especially when they charge a few hundred bucks per night for their rooms. I stayed here during a work trip and my electric toothbrush ran out of charge. I forgot to pack my charger so I called the front desk for a complimentary toothbrush, and they informed me that they no longer provide toothbrush or body lotion to guests. But I could purchase the toothbrush from them. It blows my mind!! I am usually a good packer and have everything I could need with me. And I believe in sustainable ways so I completely support not throwing out plastic toothbrushes and other items in all rooms when no one is asking for the items. But for a hotel at this scale to try and make a few extra $ by selling me toothbrush because it's a needed item, that was cheap! read more

We recently flew to Seattle to catch a cruise and stayed downtown at the Seattle Waterfront Hotel. There were not many restaurants open at that time of the night so we went to the bar where you could order proper meals. We ate dinner and breakfast the next day. The food was good for both meals and the service was good. Our room was a corner suite with beautiful views of the waterfront and the boats. The bathroom was very large with a huge shower and a large counter. The room was big with a great flatscreen tv and refrigerator. My only complaint was if you get up at night to go in the dark to the bathroom the bathroom light automatically comes on and makes you wake up. The location is perfect to visit Pikes Market and you just walk across the street to the cruise ship terminal pier 66. I highly recommend this hotel for a great location and a great room. read more

For my first night I booked a "pure" room which they tout as offering a unique clean air environment. Unfortunately it was nothing of the sort. I included the description of a Pure room they have on their website. As someone who has bad allergies and auto immune issues I always look for a "cleaner" option. My allergies started acting up and I took out my air quality meter and it showed the room had poor air quality. Not poor as in ehhh it's bad. No, it was in the red zone. As in unhealthy. A pure room being unhealthy? I could not believe it. It was disgusting. I've stayed here before and I decided not to bring it to anyone's attention because it was one night and to be honest I've had issues before and the staff could care less. We were there for a cruise and it was one night. So I went on my cruise and used the air quality meter and it was superb. Incredible air reading in a cruise cabin. Imagine that. As our cruise finished we came back to Marriott Waterfront and instead of a pure room I booked a regular room (actually two rooms for the family) because I wanted to see if it was just that room that had horrible air quality. Nope. Pulled the air quality meter out and once again disgusting air. Not only in my room but my family as well. This time I decided to go speak to the manager on duty who was nice but didn't understand what I was talking about and frankly she seemed uninterested. I explained how we had gotten sick because of the air quality and totally uninterested and not empathetic. Never heard back from her. Nothing. "Thanks I'll pass it on." The restaurant was the high point. Food is excellent and the staff is amazing. The morning crew and managers provide a great experience. But the air quality from my reading at the time was poor and the staff is always uninterested in going above and beyond. Again it's a high traffic hotel so they're seriously uninterested in helping anyone. The General Manager knows about Yelp do you think they've responded to these poor reviews? Nope. Typical for what happens there. If you are sensitive to poor air quality this might not be the place for you. (The photos show the readings compared to a cruise cabin on the ship I was on. The low reading at the top was on the ship which read excellent and the bottom showed the room air quality with the AC off vs after I turned it on. It just got progressively worse.) read more

Such a nice room! King bed guest room, sheets and towels were bright white clean. Everything looked nice & updated. Toilet had a super strong flush & left nothing behind, water pressure/temp for the shower was on point. Showtime on demad for free. Mini fridge, coffee maker only. Housekeeping was super nice asked if we needed our room cleaned as we walked out we said yes. I asked if we needed to take off the privacy sign for her to do that and yes we did! Gave her a tip (tip your housekeeper a**holes) and we were on our way. Came back to our room made, cleaned, and restocked with towels. *We also left a tip when we checked out! The hotel is literally across the street from the waterfront. Next to Pier 66 pedestrian bridge. We had a nice waterfront view from the 6th floor. There was a train behind the hotel but you can barely hear it passing by. Spend 3 days here and just walked to different Piers, the great wheel, the aquarium, all along the water front. There are also boat tours & anything water related within walking distance. Pikes place is close BUT getting there is an UPHILL walk like 100 flights up (or significantly less )!! Walking back from there is easy though read more

I chose this hotel due to the proximity to the Pike Place Market, which I heard was the place to go in Seattle. I was not disappointed. As a platinum Marriott member, I was upgraded to a water view room and had access to the M Club concierge lounge. The breakfast is decent, with excellent pineapple. Whoever chooses the fruit for the lounge really picks excellent fruit! I was originally not thrilled that they did not provide Starbucks coffee, but after tasting the Fonte coffee, I was very impressed: Seattle has excellent coffee, so why not try some other coffees? There is a Fonte machine, with medium and dark roast. Both excellent, but I like the medium better. The lounge also provides evening hors d'oeuvres, which consist of some spring rolls and meat balls one night, with some crudités and cheese. There is coffee and water and soft drinks 24/7. I especially enjoyed the hot water machine for tea, but the selection of teas was not great. I brought my own teas from home. For future reference, there is a great tea place in the Pike Place Market if you need more teas. There is a pool but I never took advantage, because it was cold and rainy almost every day I was there. The restaurant in the hotel is decent. The housekeeping is good, the sheets crisp. The toiletries, I am happy to report, are made by Thisworks, which I had never heard of, but it contains eucalyptus, so I love the shower gel and body lotion. If you google Thisworks, this is a high end line with essential oils! Much preferable than the Amber Wood or whatever it's called usually provided in other Marriotts. I am glad that this Marriott has not eliminated the small bottles of toiletries. Much more sanitary and great souvenirs! read more

This place is in the perfect location. However, with that being said, the room itself had a few issues. First, the tv would not work except for the hotel channel; secondly, the balcony is a joke, so if you're interested in a balcony not worth it. The overall room was nice and cozy. The hotel was lovely, had a marketplace to get beverages, a bar, and two restaurants, one for breakfast and one for dinner. The best part was we could walk all up and down pier 66. We were also very close to pikes market place and were about a twelve-minute walk from the light rail station. read more

I have traveled around the world, stayed at many Marriott hotels, and this hotel is probably one of the best I have stayed at. When staying at the hotel, after checking in, you soon realize that regardless of you have a waterfront room or a city room, you are going to get some great scenery. The staff is friendly but busy, fast but busy, and always helpful but still busy. Each staff member that works here shows that they care for their customers. The hotel as a whole from room to the lobby is spotless and clean from head to toe. That is a comforting treat considering how much it is to stay here. To say the least it is expensive. It is valet parking only and that gets pricey after everyday that you stay here. Actually, valet is the only reason why this hotel is rated at 4 from me. Because the valet is completely incompetent. Better add a cushion on your schedule as it takes valet 15 to 30 minutes to retrieve your vehicle. Everything else at the hotel is actually pleasant. The lobby is beautiful, they have a Marriott members area, a neat little commissary, and a decent bar/restaurant (no room service currently due to covid). All the staff and most if not all customers wear face masks to stop the spread of Covid-19. The location of this hotel is exquisite! You get a view of the beautiful Seattle skyscrapers or a view of the beautiful Washington mountains and Puget Sound. Either way, you win. Your about 10 mins walking distance from the famous Seattle Pikes Place Market, about 15 mins from Pioneer Square. You are also right across from the Seattle World Trade Center as well as the Seattle cruise ships. The beds are comfortable, the TV has a decent amount of channels, and importantly the hotel wifi is steady, strong, and secure'ish. Overall, if you can afford to stay here or if your company allows for you to stay here, do it! You will not regret it! read more

Over the years I have stayed here many times. Here is my first review of this hotel. Pluses - nice waterfront location. Close to restaurants including Anthony's. Rooms have been updated. Negatives: parking is very expensive $50 per day. Lack of restaurant service. No breakfast. Pool is small. No hot tub. Smells terrible when laying outside by the pool because of the hotel garage dump right below. Noisy also with train that runs behind hotel. There is no serenity at the pool. Cheap towels provided in room. No coffee machine in the room. Rooms are only serviced every other day. read more

For a Marriott, this one is NOT what I expected. Hubby and I had a weekend getaway and wanted to stay at the waterfront. There is construction in front of the hotel which made it a little difficult to get around. We had a king room with corner view of the water/city. The view was great, but that's about it. The bed was as hard as a rock. The room was hot, probably because it faces west and the sun warms it up. The problem is the AC was not good enough to cool the room. The coffee maker in the room is useless. They did offer coffee in the lobby but hubby said they were out when he went down there at 8 am and they did not offer tea for me. The shower is a terrible design, water splashes everywhere no matter how careful you are, there is no vent in the bathroom so the ceiling has water damage. The light in the bathroom was dim so it made it hard to get makeup done correctly. The doors to the rooms do not close quietly no matter what you do. They slam which is all we heard all night. We did not eat at the restaurant even with the $25 per day credit, the reviews are terrible and we didn't want to take a chance. The ONLY good thing about this hotel is the valet service. The guys parking and getting our car were professional and very polite. Kudos to the valet team, they are the only reason this is not a 1 star review. read more

Great location but not worth the price to stay here. I paid the extra for the waterfront upgrade because I was going to be in Seattle for over a week and was super excited about ending each day with a waterfront view. Unfortunately, paying extra for the "waterfront" view meant I was eye level with the street, construction signs, trees, a lamppost, and the SMALLEST sliver of water visible. Totally not worth the extra charge - since the hotel is right across from the water I spent more time watching the sunset from the piers and various vantage points near Pike's Market and the hotel.....I could have saved quite a bit of money with just a "standard" room since the views nearby were just as good. Staff at check-in wasn't very friendly. I don't think it is expecting too much to be greeted with a "welcome" or "hello" and at least an indication of which floor I'm staying on, the location of things like the elevators, pool, fitness room, etc. Maybe hype up the rooms a bit and mention the newly renovated wings -- I feel like these are basic things that have usually been said to me at other hotel chains and other Marriotts I've stayed at when traveling in order to make a customer feel welcome on property during their stay. It was kind of off-putting to have the clerk just typing on the computer during the whole check-in process, and then sliding keys at me without a word. It wasn't like the front desk was swamped at the time either - I was the only one checking in. Overall, the location was super convenient for all of the things I had planned during my stay in Seattle, but in hindsight, I would have opted either for a more economical room without the promise of a waterfront view or a maybe even a less expensive hotel away from city center. Public transportation in Seattle is very user-friendly and major attractions are close to each other so I feel like even if I wasn't staying right on the waterfront, I would have still managed to see and experience everything I wanted to.......without breaking the bank just on my hotel room. read more
