Top Lake McDonald Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Issaquah, WA - Seattle - East

10/10 Excellent

"Place is great if you are looking for a place to sleep and get out and explore."

Hampton Inn & Suites Seattle/Renton

8/10 Good

"Just an overnight, convenient location. Parking bit tight if you have a bigger SUV"

Hilton Garden Inn Seattle Issaquah

8/10 Good

"My grandkids really enjoyed the indoor pool. The hotel was clean and the staff was great. Only complaint is that we paid 48.00 to have breakfast. (2 adults, 2 kids)."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Seattle-Issaquah

10/10 Excellent

"This property met the brand expectations."

Inn at Lake Washington By OYO I-405

8/10 Good

"The place is in a good location, quiet though easily accessible. You're not too far from Tukwila, Renton, or Bellevue, from where you can get transportation to the city. The rooms are okay. The bathroom was clearly not cleaned before I got it. There was a lot of hair all over and a bunch stuck to the shower walls, which disgusted me. The towel rack was loose, and I had to push it back into the wall. I mentioned these to the front desk, but I'm not sure she noted them down. So, be careful with what you grab for support or even where you place your things here. Parking was decent, and I think they have an overflow parking lot if you don't find a spot up front."

Hyatt Regency Lake Washington at Seattle’s Southport

8/10 Good

"They charged extra"

Larkspur Landing Extended Stay Suites Renton

8/10 Good

"We weren't told that they didn't offer free breakfast. Kinda one of the reasons I booked. Why wasn't there a in the bedroom. It was so hot and barely had the window open."
