Let's be honest, this hotel strictly gets the job done... but just barely. I think the customer service is great, it is a smaller hotel chain, so you really get the immediate service experience, but there are quite a few flaws. The rooms are extremely (I get it, it's Seattle). The bed is a hideaway bed, which one down is really hard to walk around the room. Again, this just gets the job done.. it's it's right by the Paramount theater, which is where we were going, so I'm not gonna complain about the space when we only stayed a night. They do have a dishwasher and silverware and plates and everything so that did come in handy and we do appreciate those items. That said, the Camlin is kind of known for being... old. They don't have vending machines, they do have an ice machine in the basement and a small water cooler in the gym area (also in the basement). The TV - just terrible. I'm hoping they had DVDs somewhere that you could rent or borrow for the night, but I wasn't aware of when we checked in. Granted I did not ask, so if I were to guess, I would assume it would be in the game room located on the lobby. The TV was probably one of the worst things I've ever experienced in a hotel. The guide option didn't work so we didn't know what was actually available on the TV and we had to slowly go through the channels to see if they even worked. The service option is not really an option that Camlin provides, so I'm not sure really why that's on their remote. Also, the only plug-in for your phone charger is on the alarm clock that's located by the TV versus on a nightstand, but that's more because the bed is a hideaway. The other thing I really dislike is that the parking garage is not connected to the hotel. You do need to walk about 1 to 2 blocks, which is OK normally, but it does suck when it's snowing, or hailing which it did this weekend. Yay us! It's about $45 for a parking pass, which is cheaper than the more luxurious hotels, but again you get what you paid for and at least for the Camlin, they have reserved specific spots for the Camlin residence. We did find dried blood on our top sheet, this bothered my husband, a little more than me, the customer service was able to resolve this pretty quickly and noted it in our file. I have all the confidence that the Camlin will make sure that this does not happen again. Overall, it's personally a cheap day for me to go if I'm going to the Paramount theater, but if you're looking for something a little more comfortable, a little more bougie, a little more luxury, there are a few other options in that area that I would recommend higher. Now, I have used the Camlin twice for the penthouse suites; those are really nice. So if you can afford it, and you wanna splurge, I would highly recommend the top floors. Those alone, I would give a four star. read more

Used my time share to stay in Seattle. Pretty cool place, very old or vintage. Would stay again and also very close to downtown

We love the Camlin, it's so beautiful and the staff are all so welcoming and attentive. We stay here every summer for a week and walk everywhere we go. read more

I was invited to sit in on a Wyndham presentation which supposedly took two hours and lasted for 4 (with post sales pitch). A free getaway stay for 3 days was offered with a refundable $50 deposit if I didn't leave early. The hotel itself was fine and it reminded me of a scene from the Continental from John Wick and Gotham, but not fancy. The presentation was fine and informative. The main presenter was a veteran presenter and former or current executive that was very transparent, honest, and facts base. He brought a southern charm to the presentation and talked about family, football and travel. He painted a nice picture of how to save money, creating a legacy of saving, and travel investment. Growing up with smooth salesman oversees and being a salesman myself, I played dumb and wanted to see what I could get. It was a nice intellectual chess match but after an hour of hearing about this guys daughters and sports investments I lost interest. The presenter was getting all sentimental and looked like he was about to cry. He told the group that he was giving away free trips anywhere in the world and used the Maldives as an example. I was directed to an associate that seemed knowledgeable but kinda green. He was tall and hovering while smiling all the time. My partner and I were asked to input our personal information to see if we qualified for a Wyndham credit card to purchase coins to book stays around the world. This dinged our credit and there wasn't much forewarning. Long story short, the sales pitch is worth it if you have disposable income. The "free" vacation doesn't include plain fare, food and transportation. What is included is last pass getaways which sound inviting but what are the reviews saying in these older hotels. The sales person was very pushy and wouldn't listen to the word no I am not interested. He followed me down to the elevator and seemed to want to crunch more numbers for me to review so that I could put down a down payment. He also tried to friend me on social media. A female associate when giving me my free voucher was not cordial. She laughed at my signature and handed me the two $25 food gift cards and my partners $50 deposit. I grew up with charlatans and hustlers overseas. I could see through the game and caution anyone interested in this sales pitch to do their research. Again, if you have disposable income and don't care where you stay this may be for you. After sending in the vouchers for a free stay, I haven't heard back. It's been over two weeks since I mailed it in. No need to contact me WorldMark. 0 stars. It was a waste of my time. The only decent thing about this was free Costco water. read more

This Worldmark is in a beautiful old building. The lobby is gorgeous. We got to our room quickly and it was clean and attractive. There is no cooktop or stove but there is a microwave and you do have a small fridge. The location is great - right near the Paramount theatre and other great downtown locations. The local monorail is walkable from here. It was pretty chilly when we were there so I didn't look for air conditioning - but there might not be any. Also no washer/dryer in our one bedroom. read more

The hotel is beautiful, and we had a penthouse suite so that was a plus. I took my 93 year old Mum to Pike Place Market. Rather than make an extended day for her we decided to stay the night so we were there for about 18 hours. A few days before, I was called by the Camlin and told that parking was $45 a night, but they would pay that for me. Then they said they would add 1000 timeshare credits back to my account, and they wanted to buy us breakfast and we scheduled it for 10 a.m. When we went down for breakfast, a man came and took us in the elevator up to another floor and put us in a tiny area with a table filled with paperwork. Breakfast was a pre-made zapped breakfast burrito that was dry and tasteless. Then the gentleman tried to hard sell more credits/different program. After 30 minutes (and 30 minutes before 11 am check-out, Mum said she was fed up and walked out. I told them I could not leave he on her own. The representative said you have to stay here for an hour because we are "paying you", I told him they could keep their 100 credits, and I was going to go and pay for parking. I have stayed in resorts for a week at a time and never been pushed like that. Switch and bait for an 18 hour stay in the hotel. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! read more

Wouldn't recommend. We made reservations on 1/25/23 for a 9/22-9/24 stay for a Alaska Cruise and got a email canceling our reservation one day before arrival. Come to find out this place is a time share that is managed through "Extra Holidays,LLC" We had to scramble to find a new hotel which was very difficult and it ended up costing 320$ more than our Camlin reservation. Buyer Beware...... read more

Beware of WorldMark's by Wyndham "not so timeshare" timeshare presentations and the snotty sales reps who work/volunteer or are "ambassadors" at this hotel. It was a horrible experience to get the complimentary 3-night stay to try the hotel timeshare experience out. They were unorganized and talked badly about other people who had gone in during earlier sales pitches. They were calling them broke, poor, and just very judgy, even about what they thought people potentially spent money on, including what they ate like "McDonald's or Starbucks", as if it was beneath them. It's comical. A balled-headed finance or final pitch guy who seemed to be in his late 50s and wore earrings, odd, got offended about us not taking up their trash offer on the timeshare trap when I was not for it from the beginning. Somehow they thought my wife signed us up for this crap, so I played along, but when Mo, I believe was his name, tried to run my wife's credit without being upfront about it, I had to put this bs to an end. Be cautious of this location and the front hotel they have. The weird car salesmen like, associates that work here will make it a gauntlet and a down putting experience if you try and go through without signing up. read more

I found out about my friends birthday trip last minute and I wanted to go So, I signed up for the promotion through Loryn Young of Winning Ways on May 21st and gave her a 40$ refundable deposit. On May 22nd I went to my booked tour, and I received my deposit back, and I received my points. Well I did have a little trouble with the connection from my email to the Wyndam app. So, I called Loryn. She said " this is only my second day, I do not know but let me find out". And that's exactly what she did. She sprung into action calling her supervisor , Justin, who got in touch with me quickly and walked me through the process over the phone. Loryn also stayed with me through to the end until I booked my 5 day 4 night stay in Las Vegas!!!! Hey! read more

My wife and I stayed at the Camlin twice, once before our cruise to Alaske and once after. The hotel and rooms were musty and moldy smelling; to the point where I has to take allergy medication during each stay. The rooms were outdated but did show some signs of attempts at updating in the bathroom- but unfortunately were of poor craftmanship. The sink and shower fixtures off center, tiles cut around vents, electrical outlets crooked/off center... Upkeep and maintenance were lacking as well. Drywall in the bathroom was peeling and spalling, table lamps would flicker when you turned on a ceiling fan, door locks hard to operate... None of this however would have brought me to nit pick and write this review. We are Wyndham owners and booked the Camlin (Worldmark) through Wyndham. What really irked us, during both stays, was the constant badgering to attend an owners meeting (aka high pressure sales)- both at check in and multiple times each day- during both of our stays. It was borderline harrassment. We said "NO" once- leave us alone. We're not likely to stay at The Camlin if ever in Seattle again. read more

So we were lied to!! My advise is to stay away from VRBO properties and get a hotel!! And especially this property!! read more

Avoid WorldMark like... well, like COVID. Ever since Wyndham took over, it's been a steady downhill decline. They don't care about owners, even those of us who have owned for 20+ years. And they apparently don't care about keeping ppl safe during a GLOBAL PANDEMIC. Owner points were not extended during COVID and cleaning is abysmal. Do not buy into this horrible timeshare. read more

Hello world -  I have been a Worldmark member since 1996. It used to be great in the 'olden days' before Wyndham took over. They recently changed their website for "Owner Enhancements" and I am beyond SUPER frustrated. As of late, one can't even reach a member services person over the phone at any reasonable time. [Less than 1.5 hours to be exact...] Read on for my woeful tale....   At the beginning of 2022, we got the friendly email reminder that a large # of our points were expiring (the ones we hadn't been able to use because of COVID) so we contacted - or shall I say attempted to contact - Owner Services to find out what options we had. The first couple of times I called were at 1 or 2 pm in the afternoon where I waited on hold for 1.5 hours with no one answering. [Wow... I think I am still hearing the hold messaging in my sleep!]  From that point, I decided to email Owner Services. The automated response to my initial email said I'd have to wait 12 days. OK... I'll do it. After 19 days without any response, I sent another email and called two more times (you guessed it, I waited on hold for over an hour without reaching anyone.) This time the autoresponder email said 19 days. We tried to book something and got crazy errors every time. no matter what form of payment we tried.. (see attached graphic)  So I sent another email with the error. [see below] UPDATE: Have spoken to several employees directly about expiring points - and NEW WEBSITE errors. Was not the best experience from the new Wyndham takeover. Turns out the long hold times (in upwards of 1 hour 45 minutes) have been happening since December, so will resolve to not be 'special' in my situation. By the way, my error below turned out to be resolved after the Customer Service person deleted my CC info and reentered it from her end. On to more positive reviews... ~Angie Sampson Owner since 1996 - [Have never been so frustrated as an owner since Wyndham took over and di all these CRAZY changes!!]  BUYER be wary! read more

Do not stay here!!! The staff and sales people are soooo rude and deceitful! I will write a detailed request later after I calm down!

Came here for a few nights for vacation from California and arrived at night. It's a older hotel so the ambiance feels like from a horror movie. I do get scared at night but that was just me. Check in was pretty simple and straight forward but the parking was confusing. I thought we would park in the garage but parking was outside in the back which was really scary if I was a female but I'm a pretty big guy had family. At night, the parking lot is dark and there is an option if you feel uncomfortable to have some escort you to the door. The room was pretty clean and big. Bed was comfortable and restroom felt like a antique but pretty cool. I wouldn't mind staying here again since I know what's around and how to park. read more

We stayed at the Camlin for a short 4 night vacation in July, the hotel is beyond beautiful! The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome from the door man to the front desk and even the concierge. We arrived to the city early in the morning and dropped our luggage to come back later for check in. The door man noticed I was carrying leftovers in a bag and he offered to place them in the employee refrigerator. Our room was beautiful, the bed and pillows were very comfortable, the bathroom was stunning and everything was very clean. We booked a trip for next summer and plan on making this an annual mini vacation. read more

My brother and I use our parents guest pass for this timeshare at least once a year. The beds and pillows are comfortable, you have a small kitchen in your room but no stove. If you truly want to cook, they have a kitchen downstairs for anyone to use, but with covid, it's closed at the moment. Trash bins and laundry on every floor which helps a lot since my brother and I usually hit up all thrift stores in the area the first few days. The construction across the street sucks lol it's been going on for years, but you get used to the noise since there is already tons of noise throughout the city since you're smacked down in the middle. Location is great! Close to the link, bus system is literally right outside the building and main places you want to visit are literally walking distance. The front desk is always helpful and kind checking in, during the stay and checking out! Con and it'll be the only con: it's a timeshare so once you check in they are on your ass! So run to the elevators right after you check in unless you enjoy the timeshare talks. Other than that, it's a great place if you want to see downtown Seattle and what they have to offer. read more

I meant to write this when we were there in August. Actually, I meant to call in to complain but I never did so I'll just include it in my review. This is one of my favorite location because of where it is. I also love that it's a very old building. I always ask to stay in the hotel because I love the history of the building. We arrived on August 27 and when we went through the check in process which was great. The person at the front desk was just as sweet as can be. Those helping get our items were great. What ruined it for us, the darn sales guy. I wish I remembered his name. We checked in around 5 or so on this day so hopefully those in charge can check the schedule and see who he was. I have honestly never left the front desk feelingly so attacked. I let him know that we had an early start and therefore could not make the meeting. He pretty much refused giving us our keys until we said we would attend which we would not say we would. I honestly even told him that I am not comfortable going to breakfasts or meeting with strangers because of COVID (which is true) but he still didn't take no for an answer. He was seriously getting pissed and it showed. He had a bad attitude and was just kind of that vicious sales guy who won't take no for an answer. Gremlin fans, picture this: Cute little Gizmo when you walk in, then Spike when you say you cannot attend the meeting. It was that contrast. I was only going to take one star away but because of how he represented the Camlin and WorldMark, I had to take two stars away. I am heading back soon and if they direct me to him (hopefully he is no longer there) I will refuse. We stayed through to the 28th and everyone else was kind but when I saw him, again, it just ruined my day. read more

My review is for the Wyndham Tour. Not sure where best to post it but perhaps here on yelp will get their attention. Updating review - I did receive my gift in the mail. It took longer than expected. Increasing to 3 stars as a result as communication could have been better. I'll see if the gift is actually useable. --- I decided to try a timeshare pitch in my hometown after a nice young woman hooked me in with a free gift - tropical paradise package - on Black Friday weekend in front of Westlake Mall. A salesman and two managers used a heavy handed sales approach during these two hours of my Sunday and then I was escorted out with a promise that the gift will come by certified mail in a week. I used my work address just to be sure someone would be present to sign for it. I had a feeling since I didn't decide to make a financial commitment to Wyndham that this gift would somehow just get lost. Shame on Wyndham for taking such a short view of prospects. I'd say this was worst than a sales pitch at a used car lot. Don't get suckered as I had and waste your time. read more

I stayed at one of the studio hotel rooms. It was pretty nice for a studio, but the bed was a Murphy bed and nobody likes sleeping on one of those. The room had a portable AC unit. There was a bit of a chill in the air in the morning, but don't bother trying to use it for heat. I think it only blows cold air. The location is very convenient with the bus station just across the street. If you need to take the Link light rail, the Westlake Station is only a few blocks away. My room was on the second floor. After riding up the elevator once to my room, I ended up taking the stairs the rest of my stay. It was much faster especially when it was just 1 flight of stairs. One of the things that I did not like was that there weren't too many places to hang your towels. There was a bar above the toilet, but it was too flush against the wall. The only hook that was useful was the one on the door. As an owner, I was invited to a complimentary breakfast and a presentation that should've lasted 1 hr. Breakfast wasn't that great and we were crammed into a small room. However the presentation was quite informative which led to the presentation being a bit longer than scheduled. The hard part was actually trying to convince the salesman that I couldn't afford to buy more credits. The whole process took about 2 hrs for which I was given a gift card for attending. They claim to be no pressure sales, but far from it! Overall it was a nice, quiet, and comfortable place to stay. I will definitely be coming back! read more

The door staff and front desk staff are great, but that "concierge/guest services" desk (aka timeshare sales team) are horrible. Just try to check in and go to your room without stopping by their desk for your "wrist band and discounted restaurant list" and watch all hell break loose. I had this woman actually yelling at me over and over from across the lobby as I tried to walk to the nearby hallway to give a tip to the door person who helped me with my luggage (the salespeople will actually chase you to the elevators). I said, "no thank you" over and over to their offers of free parking and free vacations for attending their morning presentation/sales pitch. The salesperson actually told me that if I didn't tell her my marital status that I would have salespeople chasing and calling me throughout my stay. Apparently if you are married, but traveling without your spouse, they can't sell you timeshare. Really a horrible and uncomfortable way to start your stay. The pressure and tactics are so off-putting and desperate. Once in your room, be sure to unplug your phone, or they will keep calling you. The Camlin used to be such a cool place with the Cloud Room bar on the rooftop. It's a shame to see what Worldmark Timeshare has turned this place into. Sigh. read more

WorldMark Camlin is the yardstick by which we measure other timeshare resorts. We recommend it without reservation. However, there are some changes coming, inside and out. Inside, the building will undergo the ten-year refurbishment in 2015 (April 19th to September 30th). The plan is to do one floor (five units) every two weeks. Outside, construction continues on the 815 Pine Apartments, directly south (and nearly touching) Camlin. Noisy! The building should be finished in spring 2015. BTW, if you are in the resort on Tuesday at 10:30 a.m., be sure to attend the historical tour of the Camlin, given by the Resort Manager, Pedro Lama. He gives a great presentation, integrating clever storytelling and photographs to bring the history of the Camlin alive. Scalawags and schemers, bootleggers and celebrities, sunken yachts and long hidden treasure, this tour of the Camlin is a great introduction to the colorful and controversial history of the flagship resort of the WorldMark system. read more

Yes...it is a timeshare. I have stayed at several of their properties...and this one is one of the ones where they do pressure sales. We were told at check in that the presentations would be one person to thirty guests, which it was not...but doing the presentation offset our valet parking to $10 for the whole wkend...which was nice. Other than the sales presentation...this is a nice place to stay, it is in close proximity to the waterfront, pike place market, seattle center and various dining, shopping and entertainment spots. I was however awakened at 2 am by very loud gunfire in the area...and there was also a hairball in the shower on the wall. And yesss...I do agree that having to go all the way to the basement for ice kind of sucks. The staff was very friendly for the most part, and I would return. read more

We really enjoyed our stay at The Camlin. We stayed in a studio and there was plenty of space for the 2 of us. The staff was friendly and it's in a central location. You don't even need a car - we walked everywhere or took the rail system. You will get sucked into a sales pitch, so just say no & move on. read more

Loved our room and our stay at the Camlin. Great location across from the Paramont everything seemed to be clean. We had a one bedroom unit, very comfortable. But major problem because we came home with bedbugs. read more

The property itself is in a very convenient location, the room was nice and quiet. Although smaller than all other Worldmark rooms, this is because you are in the city in a historic building. The front desk staff were nice. Because of the sales staff I will never come back to this location. They were incredibly aggressive and did not listen to anything I said - even my name or my relation to my guest. They called my mobile phone when I was out and then my room despite me telling them multiple times I didn't want to come to their "breakfast." They hassled my guest and then after this had all happened I felt weird walking through the lobby every time I went in and out of the room because the sales staff obviously talk. I am sure this review will get the token apology from the hotel manager for the same reviews others have posted. Clearly nothing is being done about the ridiculous sales staff. read more

Small rooms, everything is dated, elevator is painfully slow. Way too many breakable decorative stuff in the rooms - you know kids stay here, right? Sales staff are aggressive. I stay here through my parents account and I've stayed at a lot of Worldmarks so I know the drill - they want to sell you on a timeshare and entice you with food or Visa gift cards to do so. We had a full schedule planned and didn't have 90 minutes - 2 hours for their "free breakfast" that we knew we'd just say no to what they were selling. Their sales person, that they call concierge, kept pushing us to go to the breakfast and we kept saying "we know how it works, we're busy and aren't interested" but he wouldn't stop. I get you guys are "passionate about your product" or whatever else you commented on a review, but know when the customer has no interest in what you're selling. We get to stay for free on my parents account, why on earth would we buy our own membership?! Also, the jets on the hot tub only work half the time. read more

Building pretty old.. elevator very slow... wait period between 1 to 4 minutes. During my stay here, one elevator is out of service for several days, ice machine not working for a couple of days. Weather was hot and no Air conditioning in the rooms. No guest parking. So no rental cars. Parking cost $40 per day. That's insane. Elevator, only one working the other one been out of service since we arrived 7 days ago. It's about a 3 to 5 minutes wait during the morning hours to get down or up with one working elevator. read more

I would like to caution owners and guests of The Camlin about attending a timeshare presentation at this location. I have been a WorldMark owner for over 22 years so I am definitely in a position I know how this program works and, let me tell you, it isn't what it used to be. WorldMark/Wyndham's sales team has always been very aggressive, even predatory, but now I'm finding them to be incompetent too. I recently purchased additional credits so I could gain access to their new TravelUp program. I also negotiated a few additional benefits but, to date, almost 60 days out now, I have still not received ANY of the benefits I was promised. I made several phone calls to the sales team but it's difficult to get a return call and, if you do, all you get is a bunch of excuses and no action. Since I was getting no satisfaction with the sales team, I contacted owner resolution and lodged an official complaint. Now, a week later, still nothing has been done and my frustration level is through the roof. In the past you could open a case and it would be resolved fairly quickly. But it seems the owner resolution department has no control over the sales team because all they can do is open an issue and forward it sales management who has done absolutely nothing. I will never sit in on another WorldMark/Wyndham presentation ever again. They are your new best friend, extending themselves and making all kinds of promises, until the sale is made... then they don't know your name! I have never seen anything like this and it has completely devalued to my ownership. Not to mention the fact I shelled out a lot of money and still have not received the benefits I was promised. Proceed with caution. Don't say I didn't warn you! read more

We had a great two night stay last week. We've been here maybe 4 or 5 times over the last few years and every time we've enjoyed it. The only reason for the one star drop is the sales staff. Trying to get you every second they see you. I get it- it's literally their job, but they are so aggressive! Turned down a free breakfast and sales pitch and minutes later while in our room our phone rang five times. Right after we said we were just going to sleep (flew all night). Later, we bumped into the sales guy in the elevator and after that we took the stairs and used the back entrance! Back to the place- it is so big. Our one bedroom is the size of the $500 a night rooms at the Fairmont. Has everything you need (minus a couple things- mouthwash, lotion and the shampoo and conditioner is a combined tiny bottle) but they do have a mini kitchen stocked with dishes, dish soap, dishwasher, ginormous mini fridge, laundry detergent, coffee maker and so on. I was impressed with how clean it was. FYI just since Christmas the parking lot behind it is no longer a parking lot. Someone is building a high rise. So if you come with your rental (we ubered and took the light rail), be prepared to valet as your only choice at I believe $45 per 24 hours. Great stay, such helpful friendly hotel staff, we will of course be back. Just need to come up with better excuses to skip the sales pitches. read more

"Cozy, Feels Like Home, Comfortable" these are the words I would use to describe this place. Checked in for the first time on a Friday afternoon. The room we got was in the courtyard and was a queen Murphy bed room. The courtyard room is located near the pool and the recreational area. Our room was clean, and fully stocked. The concierge was always so responsive with all our request - everything we asked for was delivered within minutes! The television when we used it had plenty of channels for free and the pool area always had plenty of towels for guest to use. The hot tub was pretty big and was super hot and great to relax in. All the concierge and staff were always so polite and ready to help us out. They also checked in our luggage while we did some last minute shopping, and upon our return we were able to wait in the rec room watching tv while we waited to leave to the airport. The style of this place made me feel like I stayed in an original Seattle hotel. Loved the decorations in our room especially the door handle framed on the wall. If I ever come back to Seattle I will totally plan to stay here again!!!! read more

I've stayed at about 10 Worldmark resorts. Seattle isn't the best of the bunch but it is still nice and conveniently located from everything. We stayed in a one-bedroom. The unit is small with a partial kitchen, 3/4 bathroom and no air conditioning. All these things are clearly stated on Worldmark's site. It is a historic hotel after all. It was clean and well ventilated. Perhaps the other reviews had their windows closed and fans off. They even provide an oscillation fan (stored in the coat closet) if you need more air. It was just right for us. Although the bed was small. Maybe a full.. The living space is comfortable with a love seat, armchair, murphy bed and dining area for four. The kitchen was manageable. Equipped with place settings for six: dishes, glassware & silverware. A mini fridge, microwave, coffeemaker, toaster, & blender are also provided. If you need a full kitchen, there's one located on the main level and a gas grill on the courtyard. The shower stall was spacious. Also well ventilated as long as the shower window is open. As far as the staff, they were great. No pushy sales pitches for us. As soon as we told them we weren't interested, they backed off. We did receive one call but that's it. It is their job and we expected it. You don't need a car here unless you plan on going outside of the city limits. Valet parking is $35 a night. If you don't want to walk, I recommend taking an Uber. It's significantly cheaper than a rental car and parking fees. You have to pay for parking just about everywhere in Seattle. That's if you can find a spot. What's the point? Walk it. Seattle does have a decent walkability score. Pike Place Market is half a mile from the resort. A 15 minute or less walk. It's really nice early morning. Coffee and pastry aromas fill the air. It smells amazing! I had to add that little tidbit. I have to say after reading the previous reviews I was apprehensive. It was quite the contrary. We enjoyed our stay at Worldmark Seattle - The Camlin. They deserve a good review and I'm going to give them one! I bet the penthouses are really nice. Oh and one last thing, there were no ghosts. read more

See all

The Camlin has to be the most beautiful property our family has stayed at so far. The hotel has a very classic feel to it. I appreciated the classic furniture and piano that was located in the lobby; definitely a nice change from the contemporary hotels we've stayed at. We had a one-bedroom suite. It was smaller than what we are used to with WorldMark properties. I'll go as far to say that we've stayed in a studio that was a tad bit bigger than the room. But, the room is absolutely gorgeous. The Murphy bed is kind of low but it's no bother. The view would be great if there wasn't construction, but I'm sure once it's all gone it'll be beautiful. Room comes with a small kitchenette and all the silverware and cooking utensils you'd usually find. The room itself does not have a washer and dryer, but there's one on each floor and located in a room that doesn't disturb the other guests. The parking is $40 for valet, and $30 for self-parking. Just note that self-parking is a couple of blocks away. These fees are pretty standard for downtown parking, so don't be shocked. They will offer to cover your parking if you go to your sales presentation. I appreciated the staff's efforts to keep us updated about any available rooms that might have opened up for an extra night. When we booked the room, we didn't anticipate extending our stay in Seattle but we ended up needing to. Unfortunately, they didn't have anything available. Would stay here again if ever in Downtown Seattle! read more
