Location is amazing...close to great restaurants, Pike Place Market and Lumen Field...and the lobby bar is one of the most happening places in Seattle.
We loved our stay at the Fairmont. The location was great for walking around downtown Seattle. I loved the convenience of the 4th Ave Espresso Bar located near the lobby. The room was large and had everything we needed. My kids loved the large indoor pool as well.
I stay for the new year. I loved it
great room service. Room was very clean comfy bed if you wanna have a good service, you definitely need to stay at the Fairmont.
