Hotel Sorrento

Amazing place. I stayed here for two nights. Got the suite for both nights. Bed is amazing, room is huge. And for the price it’s a steal. Parking is 42 bucks or so. First night when I checked in room was very cold. They have a heating unit upon running it for 2 hours or so room was fine. I will definitely stay here again.

wonderful

My wife and I have known and loved this property for many years. It is truly a grand dame. The service is impeccable with some of the friendliest staff you could ever find. It's location near Virginia Mason and Swedish Hospital is good...and bad! Good for those needing accommodations to be close to the hospitals, but bad because of the noise the ambulance traffic to/from the medical facilities generates. The Sorrento is getting to look a bit tired and she could use an update along with some sound proofing.We had a Junior Suite on the 5th floor and it was most spacious. BUT...the furnishings (while substantial and true to the period the hotel represents) were tired looking. The feeling is one of "well used" over many years. The water in the shower never got beyond tepid and the hotel's attempt to upgrade the bath with a "rain shower" type shower head failed miserably due to lack of water force to make the shower effective. That all being said, we do recommend this property and we will use it again in the future. But with its price level being somewhat above other hotels in the area, it would be nice if the "old Lady" were gussied up a bit so that the higher price they charge made one feel better about the value differential vs its competitors.

This was a tremendous disappointment. I booked two separate rooms, each with a queen bed. Instead, one room had a pull-out sofa bed that was terribly uncomfortable. The parking fee was a surprise and I felt totally ripped off. The setting was not very nice either, right across from the Emergency entrance at the hospital. This was supposed to contribute to a pleasant weekend in Seattle with my mother-in-law. Do not recommend.
