Executive Hotel Pacific

Wow – after getting home from our stay at Executive Hotel Pacific and reading these reviews, I’m not sure I would have booked it beforehand! We stayed here for two nights and truly enjoyed our stay.
PROS:
–Super close to downtown. We walked everywhere and always knew coming back to the hotel wouldn’t be too far away.
–Air conditioning in room. It was a crazy hot weekend so it was nice to come back to a cold room.
–Comfortable amenities. Bed was super comfortable. TV was a little small, but we weren’t there to watch TV. Hairdryer, shampoo, etc. View was awesome.
–We were (somehow) upgraded to a Presidential Suite which we totally appreciated. We had lots of room to spread out so I can’t speak to the size of the rooms on other floors, etc.
CONS:
–No refrigerator or microwave. We needed to keep some things cool during the day like water, etc. and we couldn’t do that here. It wasn’t a big deal, but would have been nice.
–The bathroom was a bit small with very little space to put toiletries, etc. We made it work (just two of us).
Overall, our stay here was great. I would say a little spendy for what we got (even after being upgraded). Staff was friendly and were able to hold our bags when we got there early and when we checked out as our train didn’t leave til later.

I recently stayed at this hotel for an extended stay of 3 and a half weeks. I have no major complaints about my time here! The location is within walking distance of tons of restaurants, shops, and Pike Place Market. The staff was absolutely wonderful — they get 5+ stars for how helpful they were. They also have a wine reception that is complimentary for guests every day from 5 – 6 pm.
My room had a king bed that was very comfortable, and I had a nice big TV with HBO. All the normal amenities are provided — clothes iron, hair dryer, hangers, and samples of lotions and shampoo. The hotel itself doesn’t have a restaurant per se, but you can access a really good coffee and ice cream shop from the lobby. There are so many restaurants nearby that it’s really not an issue!
While I had a wonderful time, there are a few things that can be improved. Number one is the Wi-​Fi. It was extremely slow in the room I was in, but worked in all the common areas. The other issue is the bathroom. It wasn’t an issue for me, since I was staying alone and I am able-​bodied, but if someone does have a physical handicap, I can see how it would be difficult to reach over the sink to turn on the shower. In addition, you don’t get a ton of privacy in the bathroom because the door is more like a frosted pane of glass.
Overall, I would stay at this hotel again — just maybe not if I was sharing a room with someone else.

Excellent stay with the most kind, and courteous staff I have ever experienced at a hotel. The staff catered to every need and gave a warm welcoming. They also presented a wine tasting and featured a personal gym. The view and room design were also fantastic. Can’t ask for much more especially for the price.

Our first stay in the city and they made it great. The staff was friendly from check in, to those walking in the halls to valet. The room was quaint and had some very nice renovations. Very central location at least for our purposes. .3 mile walk to pike place, swift walk to Elysian brewery and wamu theatre. Clean room. Only concern was the attached bar (beautiful and great happy hour service, terrible late service) but I’ve addressed that with the correct person. We will be back and are planning to take friends in July already. Oh. And the bed! So comfortable! I meant to look at the tags on the pillows before I left so I could get some of my own but forgot. The best!

Location is great but rooms are small and frumpy. The wifi is unbearably slow — I had to go to a nearby café to work. When I went to check in at 11pm after getting off a long flight, two of the staff ignored me until they finished their personal conversation, despite me asking politely if I could check in. The gym is tiny and the elliptical is broken. There was barely enough room in there for two people to exercise.

The price kicked it up a star. Cant beat $ 99 per night. I love the location, but the rooms were small. The only smaller room ive ever seen was when I stayed in a cubby-​hole in Japan. Of course I stayed during a heat wave when it was 90 degrees and the place has no air conditioning. ugh. made for a sucky night. The staff was great. Alex the valet, front desk and the host of the wine social were great.

Close to Pike’s Place that’s all it gets!
Rooms were very small even when we were upgraded to the corner room.
Rooms were also dirty, there was hair left on the toilet, glass bathroom door had finger marks (atleast I hope that’s what it was), and the shower head was broken which sprayed water all over the very small bathroom.
Hidden charge for valet/​parking & no where else to park.
You could here the street traffic ALL night long (6 floors up).

I stayed at the Executive Hotel Pacific for four nights in March of this year. I found the accommodation comfortable and the staff cheerful and totally at my service. I used the vallet parking option and never had to wait more than 5 minutes, even when they were busy. It was super convenient. I was able to walk with ease to a concert by the Seattle Symphony at Benaroya Hall, to the Seattle Art Museum, Pike Place Market, and I could have walked to the Aquarium, but through no fault of the hotel construction nearby the Aquarium made that problematic. I wish the bathrooms were a little larger, but I understood coming into this that the place was built in 1938. For the price, the location and definitely the staff, I would stay here again without hesitation.

Stayed here last year because it was cheap for what I needed. Not very clean, not well maintained for an older building. Guest service was subpar. When I checked in, they gave us the wrong room. Someone was already checked in (thankfully he was nice… and cute). When we went to have it fixed, the FD just acted like it was a normal thing that can happen. Uh… no! And when I mentioned this at check out, I spoke to a different person and they had the same attitude. That’s a huge security risk to us as guests. Front desk needs to be detail oriented so those sort of events don’t happen.

Stayed here for about 3 nights and booked through Expedia. Room was pretty small and bathroom was even smaller. Couldn’t sit in the toilet comfortably because the toilet paper roll was right next to it and the sink on the other side. The door in the bathroom is a glass door that doesn’t shut well and the room wasn’t put well together (construction wise). It’s an old hotel that had «renovations» but you can tell it was done cheaply. We probably wouldn’t be staying here again because comfort was not there. The bed was also not comfortable but the sheets were nice and had a down comforter. Staff was friendly and helpful it’s just the room itself that didn’t represent well.

We spent three night at this hotel and before getting here and reading the reviews I was pretty nervous!
I’ve stayed in tons of hotels in a spectrum of prices and places from a place in concord where there were no keys and the owner had to buzz you in to the room to $$$$ places in SOHO Manhattan.
Based on this experience I feel like I can confidently rate Executive with 4 stars. I would give 4 ½ but that’s not an option.
Pros based on things that matter when traveling and trying to explore a new city: –THE BED was so comfortable and they give you tons of billowy pillows. Lying in my own bed now, I miss it. It was perfect to come back to at the end of the night.
–The staff was kind and welcoming.
–The location, of course, was great, we would walk between pikes place and Capitol Hill and then the international district then back to the hotel then to the waterfront again. It’s also great location to the main bus lines to get all over greater Seattle. You can also take the bus to Capitol Hill to the bar scene then walk the 15 minutes back downhill to the hotel at the end of the night.
–Great plush towels, which I feel like can make it or break it. No one likes a thin towel.
Cons: –No mini fridge for left overs.
–the toilet flushing sounded like a demon coming from the depths of Hell, but after a couple of flushes it just became a running joke between me and my partner (besides nothing’s more scary than a toilet that sounds like it’s not flushing). –It was a little stuffy in the room but opening the window cleared that up.
As other people mention, you can hear the neighbors but that was expected. It’s an old building. I hear just as much noise in my apartment at home. Same with the bathroom size. I’ve been in smaller and you can move around in it fine.
Overall it’s a great place for travelers who value experiencing a city and having someplace comfy and clean at the end of the night to rest their sore feet more than the square footage of their bathroom and spending most of their trip in a hotel room.

Stayed here in October 2015 for a girls’ trip. I don’t know why this place doesn’t have even more positive reviews. It’s a gem to find at a great cost for the area! The hotel and my room were tidy. The bathroom was clean. Overall, the condition was fantastic.
Most downtown hotels are expensive and out of my middle-​class income. I had initially considered staying near the hotel and taking transportation into the city. However, I found this gem of a place. We are a 10 minute walk from the open market, water and downtown area of Seattle. Super convenient if we wanted to go out and eat, come back, rest etc. We were within 10 – 15 minutes in an über to any tourist site we wanted to see. I think the space needle was 20 minutes. The most we paid in an über that weekend was probably $ 15. The location and cleanliness makes it worth staying in.
The staff are friendly and cheerful. They give apples everyday to their guests which I thought was sweet. The only improvement is that the staff could do some research on nearby attractions. When we landed, we were starving and asked for recommendations. They gave us a pot-​belly sandwich shop and a sushi-​hibachi chain. They said they just couldn’t come up with anything else. Umm… Come to find out, we’re 10 minutes from the market where you can get clam chowder, beignets and anything fresh off the markets! What?!
Nonetheless, overall great service and condition. Would definitely stay here again. But… use Unilocal if you want to get any recommendations on where to eat! lol

This place is billed as «Boutique» which to me is a code word for Expensive with Quaint (usually small) Rooms. Now, I’ve been to some Boutique places that were really, REALLY nice. This place was not one of them!
Expensive? Yes. Small Rooms? Yes. Quaint? Hardly!
Two words… Shit Hole!
We arrived in the early afternoon and our room wasn’t ready. We checked our bag with the front desk, waited an hour, then they couldn’t locate our bag. They finally found it stashed in a back office somewhere…
This Non-​Smoking Hotel was anything but. I was choking on my neighbors cigarettes and pot smoke all night, every night. The walls were so thin I could hear the guy next door doing things that my imagination led me to believe was him shooting up and passing out in the bathtub while the small child he had in his room coughed and hacked on his cigarettes… either that or the kid had whooping cough! I complained. They said they were sending someone up to address it. Not sure what happened, but, they sprayed some Fabreeze in the hall.
The Bathrooms weren’t just small, they were TINY. Our Toilet was mounted crooked, too close to the wall to be used comfortably, and flushed with a strength of a jet engine, ejecting a spray of whatever was in the bowl out of the bowl! The sink was too close to the toilet, and so close to the shower stall that you had to crawl INTO the sink to turn on the shower. The bathtub was mounted backwards, so the side you COULD get in on (the other side was blocked by the sink) was the sloping end of the tub, making it very dangerous to climb into your wet tub/​shower. I slipped every time I got in there! The rain shower head was ok. but I’m glad it didn’t spray too hard because the towel rack was mounted IN the shower, and there was no room anywhere else to put them! The bathroom door wasn’t. It was a frosted shower door… umm yeah…
The electrical in the room was beyond SCARY. I doubt anything was done to code. Wires just left dangling… extension cords run all around the place in electrical conduit, like it was «real» electrical… wires hidden under peeling pieces of wall paper attempting to cover the shotty work. Pretty insane really. I was afraid to plug anything in on one side of the room.
Housekeeping was less than helpful. They didn’t make up or room at all the first day. I got in around 2pm after a long day of sightseeing. I was tired and wanted a shower. When I realized I didn’t have any clean towels I went down to ask the the room be made up. I waited in the Coffee Shop downstairs for ½ and hour, went back up, still nothing. Went down and asked how long it was going to be. was told they were on their way up… I waited downstairs for another ½ an hour, and tried again. I was delighted to open the door and see my bed was made. But, shocked to find, you guessed it, NO TOWELS! I called down and had to wait another 15 minutes for them to be delivered…
The bed wasn’t bad. and the linens were clean. But, the bed took up most of the room, leaving no room for anything else. Like… there was no mini-​fridge! Who charges that much for a room and doesn’t offer a mini-​fridge in a tourist town? No place for cold drinks or snacks… no place to stash some leftovers from any multitude of amazing foodie finds the city has to offer… nothing! I had to construct a make-​shift cooler out of my ice bucket and a ziplock bag (which I happened to think to bring) full of ice just to keep a few small things cold! Ohh and there’s only an Ice Machine on 2 of the floors… and I wasn’t on either of them!
I’ll give them that their staff were friendly. they tried. But, they also know what they are working with, they aren’t dumb. I overheard some of the front desk staff lamenting «what do people expect?.. We’re only a 2 star hotel!»… Sad thing is, their website spins it quite a different way. But, with this place, it’s all about LOCATION. It’s in a great spot, right in downtown Seattle… However, if this had not been a business trip and the room had not been paid for, I would have left after the first night!

I just completed my stay in a Standard Queen room here and I thought it was great!
Pros:
–Cheapest hotel in Downtown Seattle
–Super easy to get to from SeaTac Airport, just take the Link Light Rail all the way to University station and walk about 2 blocks.
–Short walking distance to all of the downtown features like Pike’s Place market.
–Clean
–Comfy bed
–Free wine tasting from 5−6PM
–Super friendly staff
–Pretty great WiFi
Cons:
–My room’s window view was made up of 2 building walls on the left and right, some AC units/​piping below, and a parking garage straight in front.
–Noises from outside the door seemed very loud, luckily we did not have noisy neighbors though.
Neutral:
–Walls/​doors were kind of old looking, almost felt like the walls and doors of a Victorian era house. Not sure if on purpose or just an aging hotel but either way it was not a bother.
–Room was smaller than a normal hotel, but still plenty of space for two, especially when you’re going to spend most of your time outside exploring Seattle.
–No desk for doing work on, just a chair and a bedside table. Wasn’t a problem for us this time but could have been if I was on a business trip or had work that needed to be done.
–Attached to a restaurant called the «Lodge» for lunch and dinner (if you want) and a café which I assume is where you go for the breakfast indicated on their site.
All in all, would stay here again for sure!

The Executive Hotel Pacific is right in the middle of everything downtown. You can’t beat the location or the price. You’re only a few blocks from shopping, Pioneer Square, and the waterfront. The football and baseball stadiums are a short walk too. The staff here are very nice and accommodating. Check in was a breeze and my guest room was clean and comfortable. The rooms are small but most hotels in a big downtown city are. The bathroom was recently updated and had a great rainfall shower head. Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. I didn’t have any issues with my stay and would definitely recommend Hotel Pacific for those who want to stay downtown and not break the bank.

This is Legit Review. Totally not recommending this hotel. Please find another one. I’ve been here for a night and I can’t stand staying in this hotel. I got no choice but to pay this expensive room. First of all, it’s October and they said they have a program. They turned off the AC for entire hotel. I don’t know if I’m the only one complaining but it’s hot!!! First night, I slept naked, thermostat in coolest but I only felt the air from the fan!!! I’ve complained so much but they want another fan in my room!!! I’ve paid so much getting this kind of service. Bathroom is worst! Just look the picture! too much to complain! Service is fair. They mad my stay in Seattle miserable!!! I hope you’ll find better hotel.

This hotel was just ok. The location was great but the hotel room as a whole was just meh.
You could tell this hotel was older because the doors and AC were very outdated. Our room felt stuffy and kind of on the smoky side even thought it was a non-​smoking hotel.
If they were to give the hotel a makeover and update the doors, locks and AC it would be amazing!
We did get a good deal on it so I do believe you get what you pay for. For the amount of time we actually spent in our room and location of this hotel it worked well for us but I wouldn’t stay here again.

The front desk staff was nice and friendly. The lady helping me was able to check me into my room a little bit early. I got a decent room on the sixth floor. She informed me that they had a nightly complimentary wine tasting which I did not partake during my stay here. The room was clean, there were clean towels, and the bed was clean and comfortable. During my stay, everything was fine with the room until the morning that I was checking out. Dirty water came out when I first started the shower, but it eventually cleared up. I’m sure the pipes are super old. The water pressure also was really low that morning that it was more like a drip. The TV was one of those old CRT televisions. It might be time to upgrade to flat screen TV’s.
Overall, I wouldn’t mind staying here again. It was a good value for the price that I paid. This was the least expensive of all of the hotels in the downtown area for the weekend of the Seattle Rock n’ Roll Marathon.

Really not the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in, but for the location, I guess you can say it was worth it? Ehh not really. If I only knew how small the room was and how their AC don’t work I would of reconsidered. Sleeping the first night here was a nightmare. It got to the point where it got so hot, we couldn’t even sleep! We open up the window, but that didn’t really help and on top of that, the noises from outside was super annoying.
I’ll give this 3 stars because of the staff and the valet parking dudes. They were nice, friendly, and courteous. And also the convenience of the location.
Just remember, small room if you do think of staying here. And PLEASE call them and ask them if they’ve gotten their AC fixed!

I’d give this hotel a solid 2.5. I read the reviews and I was a little hesitant about staying here after reading so many negative reviews. However, I got a great deal on this hotel ($ 70/​nights) that I didn’t want to pass up. Yes, I’ve experienced better but I went into this knowing exactly what I was getting myself into.
The room was clean but it is most definitely small with the bathroom even smaller than small. The TV was tiny too, but it had all the necessary channels. It was just two of us, so we didn’t need much space just a place to sleep at night and shower in the morning. This place provided just that.
The location was conveniently located downtown. Although it’s downtown it’s still about 10 minute (7 block walk) to Public Market. So don’t let the downtown location fool you, it’s still a walk!
The only complain I really have with the hotel is their walls are extremely thin and the room was super stuffy! The is no AC so the room ventilation is non-​existent. There is a window, that doesn’t open all the way (for safety reasons) so that could only provide so much. I visited Seattle in March and even though the nights dropped down to 45 degrees, it was still warm in the room. Most nights we slept with the blanket off. Also, even though the hotel is remodeled there are still remnants of the older hotel still behind. There was a huge stain tear of the ceiling paper/​paint on the ceiling, the closet door looked like it was made in the 30’s and it never closed. I also wish they had a full length mirror! I also found it really weird and gross that their toilet flusher is exactly what you’d find in a public restroom.
I know it seems like a lot of complaints. But I really can’t complain because I knew exactly what I was getting. The price and location were great. The workers in the lobby were nice and helpful. There weren’t any bums hanging around outside the hotel, although it was a little sketchy walking around at night.
The hotel served its purpose. If all you’re looking for is a decent room and you’re on a budget, I’d definitely recommend this place.
