This high-rise upper-middle-range hotel caters to upscale travelers -- visiting for business or pleasure -- who want to be in the middle of
the downtown action. The trendy property has 424 immaculate rooms with plush beds and well-stocked minibars, and those on higher floors can have amazing views of the city and the Pacific coastline. The hip lounge/restaurant and central location are top features, though rates are higher than at comparable downtown hotels. What's more, parking is expensive, and neither breakfast nor in-room Wi-Fi are included. Alexis Hotel -- A Kimpton Hotel offers a similar location with a more intimate, boutique vibe.

Built in 1927, the 160-room Mayflower Park is an upper-middle-range property with lots of Old World charm. Interiors are traditionally elegant and rooms are gracious, with plush beds, flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi. This property features a locally renowned Mediterranean restaurant and a classic cocktail bar plus a free weekly wine tasting. The hotel is a short walk to shopping and dining, and it's connected via walkway to Westlake Center and a five-minute walk from iconic Pike Place Market. While the Mayflower Park is not as modern and upscale as the nearby Andra, prices are relatively affordable for downtown, and there is a fitness center on-site.

From the turntables and Tivoli radios in the rooms to the free craft beer during happy hour in the lobby, the upscale Hotel Max is distinct and stylish. Its 163 rooms are colorful and decorated with works by local artists -- and some have Space Needle views -- but space is tight, and guests report shower stalls are small. However, there is a lot of verve in the contemporary furnishings and bohemian vibe. And there's a gym, a business center, meeting rooms, and event spaces as well. The restaurant next door -- Miller's Guild -- is an industrial-chic spot with a James-Beard-award-winning chef, and it provides 24 hour room service. And the downtown location means several other dining options are in walking distance, including Pike Place Market. An alternative high-style option in the area that travelers could consider is the Alexis Hotel.

Named after the nearby Paramount Theater, the upper-middle-range Paramount Hotel is a classy 146-room property ideally located in the heart of Seattle's downtown area. Many local attractions are easily accessible from here on foot or via the city's public transit system. The guest rooms are well-equipped with all the usual amenities and a few small but significant extras like coffeemakers, 50-inch flat-screen TVs, and Bluetooth docking systems. There's an on-site restaurant serving Asian fusion dishes, and the business center and fitness center are open 24 hours. But one downside is parking: The valet parking service is expensive, and there's no self-parking option. Another popular hotel worth considering is the Warwick Seattle Hotel, offering extra features like a small indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna -- but Wi-Fi is not free in all the guest rooms.

Located in the heart of Downtown Seattle, the 125-room Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle is an upscale property offering easy walking access to major attractions, including Pike Place Market and the Seattle Art Museum. Rooms are stylish and comfortable, with quality pillow-top beds, a wine-inspired palette, well-stocked minibars, and spotless bathrooms with shower/tub combos. Boutique-like perks -- including free nightly wine hours with snacks, free loaner bikes, and in-room spa services on request -- make this property an appealing pick in the city center, but the mandatory “amenity fee” (which includes access to a nearby gym, Wi-Fi, unlimited phone calls, and car-share credit) is a downside. The Warwick Seattle Hotel is a solid, cheaper alternative walking distance to the Space Needle.

This upscale boutique hotel, featuring 121 eclectic guestrooms that cater to every possible personality, is about as perfectly located as a downtown hotel can be. Many of Seattle’s most desirable sightseeing destinations are within easy walking distance, as are a vast selection of top-notch restaurants. It also sits right on First Avenue, directly above Puget Sound; a few rooms do have partial water views but many face neighboring buildings. Better harbor views can be found at hotels a few blocks north.

Luxurious it isn’t, but the Courtyard Seattle Downtown/Pioneer Square gets big points for its lively, well-chosen locale and no-nickel-and-diming attitude. Contemporary rooms may be on the small side, but they're pretty stylish for a chain and have up-to-date tech features. Given the captivating, historic neighborhood, you’ll likely spend little time in them.

This upscale hotel is located smack-dab in the heart of Downtown Seattle, within walking distance of major attractions like the Pike Place Market and the waterfront. It has gorgeous amenities that make it stand apart from most other hotels in the area, including a virtual golf system, a full-service spa with a wonderful (and expensive) menu of personalized treatments, and an acclaimed (and locally popular) restaurant on-site. The sexy, glass-enclosed bathrooms with tubs that fill from the ceiling and separate walk-in showers are arguably the highlight of the high-tech and modern (though somewhat dark) rooms. Overall, it's certainly luxurious, but the feel is that of a glossed-up Westin or Kimpton -- it lacks the nuances of a truly high-end brand, such as Rosewood.

You almost can’t go wrong with the Hyatt at Olive 8, which is known for its exceptionally high customer ratings, environmentally conscious design, and easy, walk-to-everything location. If you’re looking for a romantic lobby in which to have cocktails, you might want to head across the street to the dark and elegant Grand Hyatt; otherwise, be prepared to happily stay put.

Mammoth in size (1,258 rooms), and neutral in charm, the Sheraton capitalizes on its ultimate draw: location, location, location. You can literally walk to every Seattle attraction from this hotel, situated in the epicenter of downtown Seattle.
