The Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Seattle
Expert reviews
“Covering an entire city block smack-dab in the heart of downtown, the Fairmont Olympic is Seattle’s grande dame of hotels and the place to stay if you want a traditional, full-service, grand hotel experience. The majesty, opulence and scale of its lobby and the Georgian Room is simply unparalleled.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Seattle.
“With 450 rooms and every imaginable service, this place is certainly a splurge, but it’s worth exploring even if you don’t stay here – have an oyster at Shuckers, the oak-paneled hotel bar, or pose like royalty on the Versailles-worthy main staircase.”
“A Seattle landmark since 1924, the Fairmont Olympic offers refined luxury and top-notch customer service. No wonder it attracts a fiercely loyal clientele, who also appreciate its prime Downtown location, many amenities, and timeless glamor.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Seattle.
“One of Seattle’s most historic hotels. The Fairmont Olympic strikes the right balance between old-world glamour in its lobby and contemporary luxury in its rooms.”

Very good
Staff were very nice. Looked as if there some very nice restaurants inside the hotel that we may try in the future. Bed was big and comfy and seemed fairly quiet.
Inside our room the only two places that were not cleaned well was the coffee bar inside the room and the bathroom floor could use some cleaning. There was just a slight musty smell in the room, but given the age of the establishment, it was to be expected. Had the room been fully cleaned, I would have rated it 5 star. This may have just been a oversight by the cleaning staff (we all make mistakes).
