If you're planning to visit the Centurion Lounge at Sea-Tac, my biggest piece of advice is to join the waitlist in the Amex app as soon as you clear security. In the app, tap the Membership tab at the bottom, select Airport Lounges, find the Seattle Sea-Tac Centurion Lounge, and then tap Join Waitlist. During my visit, the wait to get in was longer than expected (45 minutes) and using the waitlist can save you a considerable amount of time. After seeing the lounge in person, it was easy to understand why there is often a wait. The space is beautiful, but it's much smaller than I anticipated and can get very crowded during peak travel times. Another thing to know is that the lounge isn't the easiest place to find if it's your first visit. It's tucked away near Koi Sushi in the middle of the main concourse food court area, so keep an eye out for the signs as you make your way through the terminal. Once inside, I could see why so many travelers want access. The lounge is modern, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were outstanding throughout my visit. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The vanilla latte was excellent and easily one of the better coffees I've had in an airport lounge. Service at the coffee bar and throughout the lounge was top-notch. The food was good, although the selection felt more limited than I expected. There was a soup station, salad options, appetizers, and several hot entrées. Everything I tried was fresh and flavorful. The green smoothies were fantastic, and the made-in-house ice cream was a standout and worth saving room for. I typically favor going to the Delta Sky Clubs when flying through Seattle, so it was nice to finally check out the Centurion Lounge. My husband specifically wanted to try it on this trip, and I'm glad we did because it was a worthwhile experience. Overall, I think the Centurion Lounge is definitely a great option if you have access. However, if you also have access to the two Delta Sky Clubs at Sea-Tac, I would personally choose those instead. The Sky Clubs offer a much more spacious experience, significantly more seating, and what feels like three times the number of food options. I've also never had to wait to get into a Sky Club in Seattle, whereas the wait for the Centurion Lounge was substantial. That said, I still enjoyed my visit. The lounge is attractive, the service is excellent, the coffee is great, and it's a comfortable place to relax before a flight. If lounge access comes with one of your cards, it's absolutely worth visiting. I'm just not sure I would pay $50 separately for access given the crowds and limited space. If you're looking for a comfortable place to recharge, grab a quality coffee, enjoy a meal, and escape the terminal for a bit, the Centurion Lounge delivers. Just set your expectations regarding the size and wait times. While my personal preference remains the Delta Sky Clubs, I can absolutely see why Centurion Lounge fans enjoy this space, especially for the service, coffee, and overall atmosphere. read more

Food: The food was good at this Centurion during our visit. I had some salmon and veggies as well as some chocolate chip cookies. Service: Service seemed to be pretty good and what you would expect from a Centurion lounge. Ambiance: Ive only been to 2 Centurion and I would say overall, they were about the same overall, including ambiance. Overall: I would rate this Centurion lounge a 3.5-4 read more

The Centurion Lounge - Airport Lounges Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Give this guy on help desk a raise !! Pretty good experience. We came almost at the closing time. My friend had lounge access and plan was to pay $50 for me a guest. It's a bummer that Amex has taken away companion option. Since we were already pretty late - there is so much we could eat/drink. Given we had a long red eye flight - we decided to go in. The guy was sweet enough to offer me a free entry. In retrospect that makes sense - what are they gonna do with leftovers anyways. May just earn some positive PR - and they surely did from my end. I took his permission if I can put him on a review. Talking about lounge - pretty good ambience, have been to other Seattle airport lounges and this one is the best. The food on the night was average but loved the carrot-turmeric-shot. The cookie were also pretty freshly baked. I would recommend trying Egg Salad which was probably the best dish this night. read more

Our excitement to try the Centurion Lounge at SEA turned into disappointment. Front desk told us to scan the barcode and it will be about 30 mins wait. Forty five minutes passed, no text message so I decided to asked. They cannot find my name on the list, so I showed them the time when I received the email joining the dreaded wait list and they let us in. Entered and surprised at least 4-5 tables were empty! Food was just average. Not impressed with the selection and quality of dishes. I believed the only three great things about this lounge were the "Blue Roast", plane spotting and courteous dining staff. I paid $50 for my wife and I believed it wasn't worth it. Used and paid Delta Sky Lounge twice during our travel for $50 each and both times were worth it and zero wait times! If you have access to different lounge try it first so less stress while traveling! read more

The Centurion Lounge struggles with its basic operations more than the others. There were no utensils then no coffee cups - you get the idea. The lounge knows how many people will be there so it hard to understand why it cannot plan better. The new location has some airport views if you can find the seat. The coffee bar was a nice add, but had a line. Relaxing not so much. read more

Beautiful! The food was definitely better than some of their other lounges. Although not as big as their flagship in Atlanta, this is probably my favorite Centurion lounge so far. I love the dedicated coffee bar, and the wine bar had a nice selection. The cleaning staff was prompt and it did not feel crowded. read more

This lounge in my opinion is better than the delta one. They always have great food options and even vegan or gluten free option as well. The coffee bar is my favorite to order a flavored latte. And the bar in the front part has great cocktail options as well. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The only con is sometimes it gets super busy and not able to stop in during peak times due to a wait list. But overall always a good experience here! read more

The Centurion Lounge - Mimosa - Airport Lounges Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've tried to access this lounge before on a previous Seattle layover but there was a 45 minute wait. This time I submitted my name in advance while sitting on the plane taxiing and the timing worked perfectly. Got my notification, walked off the plane and into the lounge. The low(er) yelp rating from past reviewers had me managing expectations and I'm glad I did. It is a spacious lounge that winds much further back so there is ample seating throughout. The bar is popular. So is the coffee bar. It appears to have a rotating menu based on past pictures compared to what was listed on the menu today. The warm food selection is OK. Not impressive but it'll provide a nourishing meal. The salad bar is petite. There are 2 soup offerings. If you're curious enough to still check it out, I suggest joining the waitlist online as soon as you land (or while in security line) instead of walking up to the lounge and asking. I don't think it's worth the 30+ minute wait but if you time it right, you can walk right up and enter. One thing I will give this location major kudos for - the staffing levels and prompt cleaning/service is top notch. This is a very well staffed lounge that can handle high volume of visitors. I watched clean dishes and utensils restocked rapidly, dishes cleared right away, food refreshed consistently, and servers repeatedly walking through the area. So for that, I would say this lounge deserves top stars. Just wish the food offerings were a little bit better. read more

There were decent food choices. The rice was good. And there was a fair amount of drink and shot options. They also had an ice cream/coffee area. Pretty clean inside.

Other centurion lounges had better food.Wifi works well. read more

Absolutely one of best lounges I've visited with a full hot food buffet, salad bar, dessert bar, coffee bar, juice bar and a bar! Multiple rooms, all offering food and drinks.

A true standard in the industry. read more

The lounge is very large, accommodating a lot of people yet the buffet and bar are not over crowded allowing a quick pick up for food and easy drink ordering. They also have a coffee bar where speciality coffee and tea drinks can be ordered and there is kombucha on tap. This bar offers quick bites like you would find in a Starbucks counter. The clean up staff are quick to pick up any finished dishes and trash, keeping the lounge clean looking. It is always refreshing to stop in while traveling. read more

Stopped into the Centurion Lounge before our flight this last weekend. We're not members, but our friends are, so we were able to get in with them but had to pay a fee. Our flight was super early so the lounge wasn't very busy at all. We took advantage of the breakfast buffet and everything was pretty decent. I tried the tofu chorizo (surprisingly had a good kick to it), pepperoni eggs (definitely interesting and nothing I've had before), and a few other little things that were decent. After eating breakfast we hit the bar for some preflight sips. We stuck to mimosas and they know how to pour them here! Dang near 95% champagne and just a little OJ for color (aka the correct way). Our bartender was also super personable and funny and joined in on our conversations. Great service and attitude for it being 6:30am. Cool opportunity to check this spot out and tempted to get the credit card for future flight access! read more

The lounge is on the mezzanine level above the food court in the central terminal. There is a lot of seating available. Dining type seating is more towards the front and more comfortable seating behind the food bars past the restrooms which offer views from windows. The service good, attentive, and friendly. The food was slightly above average but they had a nice and varied selection including 3 different cookies not including brownies. The had a coffee bar which had ice cream and the Seahawks Soda which was a good mocktail. Overall a pleasant experience. Could've been better but could've been much much worse. read more

My first time at the Centurion Lounge, and wow--the place is huge. They've got a full bar, a full coffee bar where you can get fresh cappuccinos, lattes, espressos, and even morning smoothies. The buffet has a nice spread too: a cold salad bar, hot entrées, soup, and desserts. There are also self‑serve stations for tea and coffee if you want to make your own drink. You do have to check in and get an eligibility code, especially if there's a waitlist. They only let you check in within three hours of your flight. The hot food options included Brussels sprouts, chicken breast fillets, potatoes, eggplant casserole, rice, carrot soup, cookies, brownies, and more. Drinks are easy--you can order cocktails, juices, soda, whatever you want from the bar. We got in pretty quickly for a Sunday night and there were plenty of open seats and tables. Overall, it's definitely a much bigger space and much better than the Club SEA Lounge. read more

Centurion louge at Seattle airport was by far the nicest airport lounge in the airport. On the second floor above the main terminal, you have a nice view and pretty decent accommodation. The service (once you get in) is great but the front desk workers could be more friendly. The food, especially the coffee bar and the small bites they have there, is great. The buffet is decent but your mileage may vary. They need a bigger bathroom for the number of people in here. read more

The coffee bar itself deserves 5 stars. I love the selection of beverages as well as other specials such as the fresh smoothies. We had to issue getting a place to sit as the lounge is large. The service was excellent and the common areas were cleaned frequently. We did not have to wait at all and our flight was during the TSA shut down on a Tuesday afternoon. read more

Today, everything was superb when I visited. I really enjoyed it. They made a beautiful presentation for Breakfast and I love the coffee bar. It's one of my favorites. I'm glad I came back... It's so much better now than it was. They have it fine tuned! Today was a great experience even though I had to take two trains to get here... It was worth it. The Matcha latte with the lavender foam is epic. I can't wait to have it again! read more

I had a good experience albeit the 30 minute wait. I wasn't sure why they enforced a waitlist when the occupancy was less than half full. The reason I enjoyed this lounge in comparison to the other Centurion lounges I've visited was that the food was good - simple as that. The chicken dish by chef Michael Solomonov was so delicious. The salad bar was nicely stocked and kept clean. They had a variety of vegan friendly entrees and desserts which I appreciated. Bonus was that they have their own cafe Blue Roast where they offer coffee, small curated bites, smoothies, and kombucha & cold brew on tap. read more

Had a great experience here! AN EXCELLENT LOUNGE. Really beautiful, lots of space, great service, and pretty good food with tons of options! I was super impressed with the selection of food and the menu. It was really good! All the servers were Filipino too. I spoke to one of them to let her know I was Filipino and she told me that most of the cooks were Filipino too. NO WONDER THE FOOD TASTES GOOD! Filipinos are great cooks. The service is great as they clear plates super quick. They also often reloaded the food with fresh good, so nothing ever ran out. They also have a barista serving drinks such as coffees and matchas. I had a matcha oat latte! Not bad! Wonderful lounge with excellent food! read more

The Centurion Lounge at SeaTac had a solid atmosphere for a quick airport stop. I grabbed a brown sugar cortado, which was good, and the broccoli smoothie was surprisingly nice too. The food overall was pretty mid, but the bourbon selection, especially the Woodinville bourbon, was a real highlight. Bonus points for the Mother's Day flowers they were handing out -- that was a thoughtful touch. read more

The Centurion Lounge - Coffee bar - Airport Lounges Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Extremely disappointed in how this lounge is managed. First they have a waitlist of about 45 minutes. The only lounge I have seen this issue. Second, I put my name on the waitlist and wait 45 minutes to an hour. Apparently, they expect me to stand in front of the check-in counter the entire time and not wander the airport. Because when you're at the top of the waitlist, you only have 10 minutes to check in. If you do not make it your you're kicked off the waitlist and have to rejoin. So you get to lose another hour waiting. The kicker is when you finally get in, the lounge is not even full. I will say we go to the Denver lounge and there's never a waitlist, but it is packed. No discretion when you arrive. 10 minutes late to let you back in. Furthermore, the notification is only made via email. So you're constantly checking your email to make sure you catch when you're confirmed on the waitlist cause you only have 10 minutes to make it back. Perhaps a text might be a little bit easier but then of course, people to return on time and you have more people in the lounge which I think is what you're trying to avoid. Well, I guess the positive side is making me wait. Another hour gives me the time to fill out this review. Again, very disappointed in the waitlist experience. Not worth spending $75,000 on the AMEX business or having an AMEX personal. Make sure question whether the annual fee is worth it. Especially when you have access to the Alaska lounges and several others. This is why we have the card. read more

I visited this lounge on a Monday around 4pm and had to join a waitlist before being allowed to enter. I was on the waitlist for probably about 15 minutes which was not too bad. I appreciate them for having a waitlist to prevent the lounge from being too full. When I entered, I could see why there was a waitlist because they were pretty busy but I was still able to find somewhere to sit and plug in my phone. The food and drinks are pretty much the same offerings as other Centurion lounges. I opted to pretty much just load up on desserts since I wasn't hungry. I had some dark chocolate chai ice cream, a piece of red velvet cake and a chocolate chip cookie. All 3 of them were very good. And, I also ordered a cortado from their espresso bar that was pretty good. One of my favorite things about traveling is using lounges and this lounge is pretty good. read more

The Centurion Lounge at Sea-Tac is a great spot to relax before a flight. Variety of food options, with plenty of variety to suit different tastes. I especially appreciated the Ollipop fridge (such a nice touch!) alongside a full coffee bar and a well-stocked alcohol bar. The space itself is comfortable and modern, with large windows offering great views of the airfield. It's also centrally located in the airport, making it easy to access no matter where your gate is. Whether you're looking for a quiet place to catch up on work or just unwind with good food and drinks, this lounge delivers. I have been nicer lounges, Highly recommend if you have access. It really elevates the airport experience! read more

Omgosh they renovated and it's sooo nice. It took me awhile to find it, had to ask someone for help. It's located at the back of the food court. The sign is up up up in the food court and hard to spot. U then take an elevator up and check in with code, ID, and valid boarding pass. I came early around 5:40am, still a line to check in but no wait time. Once u go up they have an open terrace that has a view of the food court and it's so vibey and nice with the lights. There r also inside spaces and seating where the food bar is. They had a good breakfast selection of sausage, egg, spongy ricotta pancakes, and even a smoothie! I really love they have a dedicated coffee shop where u can order a Lavender Honey latte or Elderflower latte (their specialities) or any regular coffee order. They have a bar too but too early to drink and i usually dont grab drinks before a flight. Overall impressed with the new space and and so glad it's here! read more

The lounge is just ok. Looks fairly new and the bar is better than the old delta sky club but I'd pick the sky club over this place solely because the people that work the desk a extremely rude and lack any kind of customer service. I was putting my belt on as I just arrived to this mediocre lounge and some young kid comes up and says; "you can't stand here." He could've have addressed this in a nicer way. Maybe I'm spoiled after being in delta one but next time I'm here I'll be avoiding this one. No other centurion club is like this. I've been to lots. read more

Overall: B // 4 stars Beautiful lounge with several innovative amenities from a freshly churning ice cream machine to a coffee bar with performative matcha and other vibrant drinks like the Peach Lava Refresher that I greatly enjoyed. The food seemed to be a miss for me this time as it looked unappetizing, but everything coming from that Blue Roast Coffee Bar looked divine and I would recommend going at 11a to get the freshest of picks. There's a large bar with newly refreshed menu from the culinary collective, and expansive seating to catch the latest on sports. The part that I don't like about this lounge in recent times is that its so busy that the wait is 30+ minutes, and that there's a lack of air conditioning in the back room that makes it a bit hot and cramped.

Is this the best centurion lounge I've ever been to? No. However, I had an overall very good experience because the staff are very friendly and kind. The food was decent and I liked the coffee bar that lets you order drinks to go so that you can have a coffee in hand while you leave the lounge. There was no waitlist when I entered but there was definitely not a lot of seats or tables left when I entered. The lounge is no longer in terminal B and is centrally located. It can be a little hard to find because it's tucked away in a corner. I did like that they had the huge window to view out so you can watch planes go by. read more

I ate before entering the lounge, so I can't comment on the food. I also haven't been to many lounges so my expectations may not be as high as other travelers. You'll need to take the elevator by Evergreen to get to the second floor which opens to the check in counter. Make sure you check the app to see if there's a wait before wasting your time going. However, service was very friendly and the area seemed to be kept clean and was promptly tended to. I was there on a Saturday early afternoon which wasn't too busy. I did have to join the waitlist on the app but killed some time in the delta sky lounge prior to getting into Amex. There seemed to be a wide range of food and people were going back for seconds, thirds, maybe even fourths. There's a good amount of seating, but it's spread out into multiple rooms unlike delta sky club which is mainly one big floor with a smaller upstairs (and no elevator). You'll find outlets only along the walls and windows. Some of the seating is reserved for larger groups (which you can take if you are) or higher Amex members. Bathrooms were kept clean. Only thing I ate was the cookie, which I actually really enjoyed.. thin and chewy and just the way I like it! read more

When I flew out of Seattle last year, I complained about not having the fancy Amex card to access a nicer lounge. This time, that wasn't a problem. Fortunately, there was no wait to get into the Centurion Lounge. The interior is super spacious with ample amount of seating. Even when I was there this past Saturday afternoon, it was only at about 60% capacity. Aside from the comfortable space, I really enjoyed the coffee bar. I liked the cold brew and the vegan chocolate pudding. If I'd had more time, I would've tried some of the espresso drinks and other small bites. The hot bar was just OK. I ate some green beans and brussels sprouts, which were pretty greasy. Everything else looked kind of unappetizing, so I skipped it. Overall, 3.5/5, but bumping it to a 4/5 because I enjoyed the space and the solid coffee bar. That said, I did expect a bit more from a Centurion Lounge, especially since the Amex Plat isn't exactly a cheap credit card to have. read more

I had to wait on the waitlist, but that's always a possibility. The dinner was nice- teriyaki chicken and salmon, noodles & rice, carrots, salad, lemon ginger turmeric shots, cookies and more!

The Centurion Lounge - Sangiovese - Airport Lounges Near Me - Seattle, Washington

By far one of the best Centurion Lounges I've visited so far, right down to the coffee bar and soft serve ice cream (right now it's pumpkin spice). There are already made smoothies that you can get at the coffee bar, or you can order different lattes/coffees if the regular machines aren't what you're feeling. There was an apple chai smoothie that was pretty good-- a solid amount of spices that wasn't overwhelming. The hot bar had a pretty decent selection of food as well. While there's plenty of seats, it was still incredibly full around 3pm on a Saturday. Even so, there wasn't a wait to get in which is highly unusual. Either way, looking forward to enjoying some time here again next time I'm flying out of Seattle! read more

High concept but low delivery. Always way too crowded with "influencers", social strivers and low rent hospitality. It's basically like if social media (which of course what this was born out of clearly) became a place. Doesn't live up to the hype at all read more

Check in staff here was just awful; rude and discriminatory, and on a serious power trip. Staff allowed multiple people in prior to 3 hour rule (all same flight/situation as me), but they wouldn't let me in until 2.5 hours before. Rude, even when I met a vip Amex and he offered to pay and bring me in as his plus one instead of me entering on my own card. Once in - check in staff then came in and asked me to move from a centurion reserved table despite me sitting with a friend who was that level. Seriously. What a serious awful experience with the checkin staff. The staff once I was finally let in was great - there was an incredibly sweet older gentleman working who was so helpful. Bar staff made a fabulous old fashioned. Coffee bar/staff so sweet! As far as food - the hot buffet was delicious and a step up from the delta lounge. I never found a place to get soft drinks, but the tea and coffee selections were great. The peppermint chocolate sorbet was SO GOOD. Giving two stars because of the wait staff and food; but the check in staff needs a serious overhaul. read more
