I've only stayed in Seattle once, but I was very impressed with the
Edgewater Hotel, which is located (duh!) right on the water, just a few
blocks from Pike St. Market, aquarium, etc.

The Westin, The W Hotel, Fairmont Olympic, Hotel Monaco, Alexis - all
really nice hotels in the downtown core.
The Inn at the Market is a great hotel near Pike Place. The Edgewater
(as Lee mentioned) is a nice place too.
All those are a little pricier, but worth it.
If you want to go cheaper, there's the Mediterranean Inn (near the
Seattle Center/Space Needle). Nothing fancy, but it was clean and
comfortable (I stayed there once while getting the hardwood floors
refinished at my house).

The last time I was in Seattle, I stayed at the Hyatt. They upgraded me
to the concierge level, and it was very nice. Very quiet,
electric-powered curtains that could make the room very dark, nice view
with the curtains open, a bathroom larger than my home living room, and
free apples.
I have stayed at the Inn At The Market, but that was so long ago that
I'm not sure my comments are still relevant. It's a nice hotel in a
good location.
I know several people who have stayed at the Best Western Pioneer Square
and would stay there ago. It's probably where I'll end up the next time
I'm there.

luxuries and comforts than others, yet all should have
the necessities of life; and if the poor cannot exist,
in vain may the rich look for happiness or prosperity.
The legistlature is never so well employed as when they
look to the interests of those who are at a distance
from them in the ranks of society. It is their duty
to do so; religion calls for it; humanity calls for it;
and if there are hearts who are not awake to either of
those feelings, their own interests would dictate it.

before making an appearance on a local radio show. The rooms are quiet,
very spacious. In fact the vestibule to the room is big enough that you
could have a room there. A workstation setup is there. Aveda Body
Oils, Shampoo, Conditioner etc are the complimentary bathroom
essentials. There is a mini Aveda Spa that is attached to the hotel.
The restaurant is called "The Library". The shelves are decorated with
real books and guests are encouraged to take them down for a read while
waiting to be served or later. (The service is quite good.) Not only is
the food excellent for breakfast, lunch or dinner but it's great for
singles who'd like something to read while they dine.
Note to Chelsea - The night before boarding for a cruise, we dined at a
place on one of the piers (Pier 52). I think it's called "The
Fishermans" or "Three Fishermen" As we were leaving I noted that they
had cans of soup for sale. Neither my sister nor I bought any. We
thought it would be confiscated when we boarded. We planned to swing by
on the way back. As things turned out there wasn't time. I assume by
your statement that you live somewhere in or near Seattle. If it's not
too much trouble could you find out the contact information for this
restaurant? I haven't had any luck finding anything on the internet.
I'd like to call them and have them ship some cans of Fisherman's Stew.
Thanks

For my very first cruise, I got the Hyatt through Priceline for...
wait for it... $37 a night!
It was very nice indeed.
