Welcome to Cruise Critic!

 

Now that you have found the West Coast Departures board, take a look around. There are many threads here on hotels in Seattle.

 

Budget is important...hotels in  Seattle can be expensive during cruise season.

Dont know if you have ever been to Seattle.  Hotels near the airport are quite far from Downtown.  There is a light rail right near by that is easy to get to , takes about 20 min to get downtown.  Pioneer Square can be a bit sketchy at all times ( if you  have time, do the Underground tour that starts in Pioneer Square).  Belltown area might suit your needs, or Westlake District.  I once stayed at the Paramount Hotel ( old 1930's glamor hotel, very convenient.)  Light rail about 2 blocks away.  There is a nice old pub on Post Alley ( Pioneer Square) called Owl & Thistle.   They say its haunted.  Pike Place Market ( DO NOT add an s to Pike) is a tourist trap, but it's nice to walk thru.  The original Starbucks is on the back side of Pike Place Market, as well as many restaurants.  Also, there is a small boutique Hotel just around Pike Place Market, I think it's called the Inn at the Market.  Cant be a in a better location for walking around.
