Silver Cloud Inn – Bellevue Downtown

I am totally satisfied — comfy bed, convenient location (for my needs), wine and cheese bar on Tuesday, and apparently the best price in downtown Bellevue.

Stayed here for one night with my friend in a mini king suite. The room was large & very clean, and the staff were friendly. However, we paid $ 240 USD/​night for this room, when it felt like it was more in the range of $ 100−120/night. Older, no pool, not fancy at all. I was cold all night as there weren’t enough blankets on the bed.
Wouldn’t stay here again.

Excellent service, clean room, fitness center, free parking, free wi-​fi, and complimentary continental breakfast. All pluses in my book! My fiancé and I stayed at the Silver Cloud earlier this week during a short trip to Seattle, and I was very pleased with our choice to stay here. It was clean, quiet, and had everything we needed.

Great service, nice room too. They were also accomodating when we decided to stay an extra day and won the hotwire bid for the place the second night at a lower price.
The biggest problem, which detracts from a 5 star rating is the food in the hotel. It’s really expensive, and sub par. Virtually flavourless and hockey puck like pancakes with awful fake syrup (come on, your right by the Canadian border!). The coffee was ok, but again, I was expecting something a little better given that there isn’t really anything else in the area.
The nighttime happy hour was a good deal for food and drinks though.

Silver Cloud Inn is just a 15 minute drive from downtown. You can either take the 520 or 90. If you’re visiting from out of town, I highly suggest you take the 90 because it is toll-​free. Our rental car charges for the tolls along with a surcharge for each day you have the car. In the end, it can become quite a hefty bill.
A few of us shared a double room with two queen size beds. The room was clean, modern, and spacious as advertised. The bathroom is conveniently designed so there is a sink situated within and just outside the door. If one of your hotel roommies is taking their sweet time, the other can get a head start with the extra sink.
Breakfast is served from 6:30AM — 9: AM with the usual items of milk, apple juice, orange juice, a variety of cereal choices, scrambled eggs, waffles, bread, and sausages. My usual breakfast choice consisted of a toasted English muffin with scrambled eggs and sausages sandwiched in the middle. There are other items that you can grab on the go such as a banana, apple, and/​or yogurt.
Parking is also free with available spots in the front and back. I did not have any issues in finding an available spot although I felt each spot was a little tight for my mid-​size SUV.
Will I stay here the next time I’m in town? Yes!

Spent three days and nights here on business and found the Silver Cloud Inn to be pretty much everything I want in a hotel. Clean room, helpful staff, incredibly comfortable bed that I could actually sleep on.
The continental breakfast (served up 6:30 to 9AM every morning) has something for everyone, with basic cereals, breads, fruits, juices, muffins and danish plus hot eggs and sausage with salsa available to add some character. The breakfast room has complementary coffee and tea available around the clock.
I’d stay here again, no question. I have nothing but praise for the hotel and its great staff.

Great rates, very clean hotels and rooms, decent breakfast with both regular make-​them-​yourself pancakes and cinnamon pancakes (2 different batters). They also had scrambled eggs, sausage, fruit, juice, coffee, yogurt, cereal, etc, etc. All includes in price. Parking is included in price. The shampoo and conditioner they provide are good and the soaps don’t leave that greasy film that so many cheap hotel soaps seem to. I’d highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Hotel was clean and comfortable. It had all the amenities you would need while traveling plus free parking which is always nice. The free breakfast was better than expected and there are plenty of restaurants and bars to walk to in the area. Would stay there again if I was in the area.

it’s absolutely loud in the summer with kids jumping in the pool screaming till almost 10p at times thanks to the sunlight. They dont care if we call to ask them to close the pool since it’s after-​hours. However, I have stayed at two other locations and the experience was great at those locations.
Discalimer: never stayed here but live nearby, if you want your kids to go nuts and bother my kid going to bed, what can i do? :)

While this is a small chain hotel in the PacNW, it always a nice place to stay on business trips. I never drive when here but they seem to have plenty of parking slots. There are several entrances to the hotel as well which is great. They serve a nice continental breakfast in the mornings and do wine and cheese on Tuesday evenings for hotel guests. The rooms are modern enough with huge flat screen T.V. granite topped desks and counter-​tops and huge/​comfy king sized beds. The front desk staff has been the same set of people when I come out here every quarter, for the last 4 years and they are ALWAYS nice, attentive and helpful. There is no room service so be prepared to hoof it for food unless you opt for the dinner delivery service. Luckily Lincoln Square is only a few blocks away and is an awesome walk to make on a nice day. Let’s not forget that their prices are well below most chains. When in Bellevue, I always come back!

I booked Silver Cloud based on Unilocal reviews, the very reasonable rates and its proximity to downtown. We arrived and checked in without incident. The room was clean, modern, and as advertised. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful in helping us navigate downtown Seattle.
There was a continental breakfast included, that I did not expect a whole lot from. I was pleasantly surprised. There were a do it yourself waffles, an assortment of cold cereals, yougurt, juices, coffee and lots of other breakfast stuff. That was a great savings and very filing!
Note: They offer different rates with parking included. I recommend checking their web site or
for the best combo. We drove into Seattle and literally parked the car for the entire trip. Their shuttle services was THAT good! We would call for the shuttle and about 10 minutes later, it was there.

I’ve stayed here on two different occasions and have no complaints. The rooms are large and clean, there’s free parking, and Silver Cloud Inn breakfasts are very filling.
always seems to have the best, low rates for this hotel. Both times I paid under $ 100 per night. It’s not in any touristy part of Bellevue, but close to shopping areas and the freeway. Not the ideal place to stay in on vacation but recommended for business or if you don’t mind driving a little distance to head into Seattle or other more touristy areas.

I thought the Silver Cloud Inn was nice and would stay there again. The value was good.
Customer service: There were no lines both times I went to the front desk. The hotel employees were friendly and quick in checking me in and out.
Lobby: The lobby was on the smaller side, but completely renovated and nice looking.
Room: The room was nice! Everything was new except the bathroom wallpaper. It had a 46−50″ flat panel television with approximately 50 channels, including Showtime. The king sized bed was comfortable.
Breakfast: A free continental breakfast was included. They had a good variety: Belgium waffles, hot & cold cereal, bagels, bread, fruit, hard boiled eggs, cheese, orange juice, and coffee.

Everything about this is awesome for a business hotel. It’s new or newer, so everything just feels and looks and smells clean. The linens, appliances, tv, remote, free wifi, everything was first rate, especially for the rate. Breakfast was great with lots of healthy choices and to-​go containers. Staff was friendly, check-​in and check out was a breeze. The location is fantastic, walking distance to Bell Square. I loved it, and the value was there, the rates were super competitive (only a touch more than the very low-​budget Days Inn)
Caveat #1: (and I am not going to remove a star for this) but the fire alarm went off at 7AM, while I was getting ready for work. I decided to risk my life and keep drying my hair, but when I finally got downstairs to check things out, apparently burnt toast in the breakfast room caused the alarm, and I got the impression that it wasn’t the first time. Very annoying. I haven’t been in the strobe light, deafening fire alarm situation since living in the dorms oh so many years ago, and its not a very pleasant way to start your day.
Caveat #2: the parking spaces are super tiny, I think the architects cheated a little, because even the non-​compact spaces seemed impossible to squeeze into (and I don’t drive a big car).
