Top Downtown Tacoma Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Seattle Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Needed a night for a short Seattle trip and chose this property because of the airport shuttle. The property is beautiful, it's very unique (please don't ever change it!) We hope to come back and enjoy a longer stay, will come back to this one. Employees were very nice and the rooms had all the necessities. There is a microwave, fridge, hair dryer, just everything you need. Thank you!"
