Excellent downtown location

The Alexis is near good restaurants, a few blocks from Pike Place Market and a few blocks from Pioneer Square. The valet parked the car and we walked everywhere. Hotel staff is friendly, efficient and accommodating. Rooms vary in size but have always been lovely and, more importantly, comfortable. There is a variety of complimentary newspapers each morning. We've stayed here before and will again when we are in Seattle.

Nice ... but not great

Great location, very gracious & friendly service. There seemed to be alot of unsupervised young children ... we were awakened several times by small children yelling in the hallway. We waited to be seated for breakfast ... and waited ... & decided to leave & have breakfast elsewhere. I think the bottem line for us, though, is that it is just not our style of hotel. I love small, boutique. But I found our deluxe king room to be un-welcoming in feeling, & a total mix-mash of style. Crushed velvet couch w/ brushed aluminum box for a coffee table, rococco style headboard with Japanese style floor lamp ... it just didn't work for us. None of the lights were on dimmers, which didn't help, & there was nothing special at all about the bathroom. In fact, there was no counter space & the sink seemed to be on a stand you would find at Home Depot. There were some lovely & interesting art pieces throughout the hotel, just very few in our room. I would call it nice, but not great, & next time we will stay somewhere else.

Loved it!

The Alexis is simply a beautiful hotel. Our room was soothing, with elegant, yet modern touches. The staff was very friendly and the hotel had a lot of charm. There is also a wine hospitality hour which was very enjoyable. It is a small space where this is hosted, so that was one drawback. The only other negative was the bathroom. It looked stunning, but lacked room on the bathroom counter. Also, skimpy on the towels in the room. I am sure they would have brought some up, but I feel in a hotel this nice they should be provided. Overall, love this hotel.

Very comfortable hotel

Great location and very comfortable hotel. Front desk and door service were very friendly and helpful. Liked the nightly wine reception too. Room was quiet and comfortable. Not huge, but more than sufficient for a 3 night stay. Never saw the concierge, but the front desk answered all our questions.

Don't need a car if you stay here. Can walk to all major attractions. Can even take the bus to and from the airport with little effort. Bus tunnel is only a couple of blocks away.

Fantastic Well Appointed Hotel

Stayed at the Alexis three nights in early September and had a fantastic time. Had a Premier Suite and it more than suited our needs, lots of space, two TVs, nice bed, wet bar, comfy bed, Aveda products, helpful and friendly staff. Got early check-in and a complimentary bottle of champagne as it was part of our honeymoon trip!

attention to detail

Very attentive and friendly staff. Great location, close to Pike Place Market and within walking distance to the sculpture garden, space needle and major downtown Seattle attractions. Extremely comfortable beds, bathrooms could use a little update. Otherwise, had a fantastic stay!

Fantastic Hotel, great location

We managed to get a great deal on this hotel through ebookers and stayed here for a few days before heading on to Canada with family. We had an amazing time. Our room had amazing views, was clean, spacious and had plenty of facilities, the bed was unbelievably comfy. The little bar downstairs that goes onto the street was a great night spot before retiring to bed and the bar meals were pretty good too. It is a 5 minute walk to the Markets and if you love to walk it's not that far to the Space Needle either. If you turn left out of the hotel you will happen across a lovely little coffee shop/internet cafe. The drinks are sublime and you get some free time on the net with a drink purchase. We kept in touch with onward connections this way! Ride The Ducks is an unmissable event! We had a great 3 day break and if there was a deal on this hotel again we'd be staying there this year. It is well worth the price they charge but a little out of our honeymoon budget this trip :o)

Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

My biggest tip is to take a walk... We wandered the streets and happened across the Seattle Symphony where they were showing The Blue Planet Live, we got to see it on it's final night in Seattle and it literally brought tears to my eyes it was amazing. If we hadn't walked anywhere we'd never have got to see it!! So wander the streets and see what you find, it's half the fun!
