Seattle has water almost everywhere, so you're never far. Luxury Service is the watchword and comfort hits its maximum. Convenient downtown locations. Budget Get a good nights sleep in a safe area with a comfortable room. Seattle has a better selection than most major cities.
Downtown Be close to shopping, museums, and the waterfront with downtown hotels.
Bellevue Bellevue is close to Redmond, Microsoft's headquarters and a wealth of shopping, culture, and the arts. The close-in suburb has many major hotels. Hostels Pay the least and don't get a shared bathroom even. Hostels are the bargain choice for students or extreme budgets where some comfort can be sacrificed.
