You can't go to Seattle and NOT go up in the space needle! There are interesting kiosks up there with info about the neighborhoods and advice from residents on various topics. And take the monorail! more

I visited the Space Needle with a friend when I was in my late 20's and just loved it. What a view!!! Not to mention how tasty the food was. I would say this is a must see on anyones Bucket List. more

How can you come to seattle (if you have never been before) and not do the needle... I probably wouldnt again, but I can say I have! more

It was cold, it was windy, we had to wait in line for the elevator behind high school prom kids ... and it was SO completely worth it! The views of Seattle were amazing and astounding. It was a clear evening and Rainier was "out" so we could see the snowy peak in the distance. The Cascades were silhouetted by... more

To be honest, I think we have been spoiled. I've been to NY, Toronto and Paris and after seeing Eiffel tower, CN Tower and Empire State Building,Space needle was OK. To us the cost of going up was not work it. If you have never been up on a tall tower, then you might enjoy it. more

The Space Needle was cool to see but it was very over priced for an elevator ride and a look out. There could have been so much more. No tour guide, no one to educate you on the history of this landmark, not even a hand out or a map of what you are looking at from there. It is... more

After hearing what I had about the spaceneedle I didnt expect much but was surprised by a wonderful dining experience. Fresh caught copper river salmon grilled to perfection with a subtle morel mushroom vinniagrette. Could this possibly be the "denny's on a stick" that I have heard so much about? The views indeed were awesome. Just as the sun kissed... more

I just recently went to Seattle and the one thing that my friend wanted to do while we were there was go to the needle. I didn't even know what the space needle was before I made my trip to Seattle. Its definitely a 'must-do'. It's like 16 dollars a person. Pretty pricey if you ask me, but if you're... more

Everyone is familiar with the Seattle Space Needle. It is the most recognizable symbol of Seattle. We went there in Oct. 2007. I had been to the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada and was expecting the Space Needle to be the same. It is not as tall as you would think it is from pictures. It has great views of... more

You're in Seattle. So, go to the Space Needle. We spent a full day in and around the museums and shops located at the base of the Space Needle. By the end of the day, we had no desire to pay for the elevator ride to the top, and none in our group complained. The Space Needle itself is a... more
