Victorian mansions line tree-canopied streets while Kinnear Park offers forested trails for nature lovers. Upscale bistros and area cafes dot the landscape, serving seasonal Pacific Northwest cuisine worth the splurge. Getting around is simple with tram connections and bus routes, though the steep hills make for challenging but rewarding walks.

Seattle and related destinations

Beneath rain-washed skies, Pike Place Market buzzes with fishmongers tossing salmon through the air and vendors arranging flowers in kaleidoscopic displays. The Space Needle offers obligatory views, but locals prefer watching ferries criss-cross Elliott Bay from Kerry Park's hillside perch. Duck into the original Starbucks (prepare for lines) before exploring the Seattle Aquarium's underwater world. The Gum Wall presents a strangely compelling (if slightly disgusting) public art installation near Pike Place. Catch performances at historic Moore Theatre or The Showbox, where music legends have graced the stage for decades. Seattle Centre houses museums beneath the Space Needle's watchful gaze, while cruise ships depart from Bell Street and Terminal 91 towards Alaskan adventures.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Seattle

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Seattle is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city’s key landmarks, cultural sites, and historical attractions, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This duration offers a great value for money, allowing visitors to enjoy the urban scenery, museums, lively entertainment, and vibrant live music scene without straining their budget. Additionally, prices may drop during these months, making it an ideal time for a budget-friendly getaway.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Seattle, begin by exploring the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. By enabling email alerts or push notifications, you could stay updated on flash sales and special promotions, helping you secure great savings on hotels. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re informed of any price drops or availability changes. This way, you’ll be well-equipped to book a budget-friendly getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay at a hotel in Seattle. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and sometimes greater value. When you make a reservation through Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
