My husband and I drove to the Hotel Max. The streets in the downtown area of Seattle are tricky what with one way systems and a grid system that isn't quite at right angles, plus some lane restrictions and road works finally getting up to the spot where we could stop our car for the valet to park took a...

I've been a guest at the Hotel Max 6-8 times in past 3 years. My wife and I stayed there based on the hotel's relationship (same owners) to one of our favorite hotels in Portland (OR), the Hotel Lucia. We stayed at the Lucia a few times prior to moving to Portland in 2008 and always liked it. In any... More

The location is great, easy access to downtown amenities and the I5. The room is too cold, you can turn the a/c but it gets too warm fast and its loud. There is no heat in the bathroom. Not all rooms has IpodDoc, I request it and it was delivered to my room. The design of the room is great... More

it has a perfect location in downtown Seattle. Within two blocks, we could get to Nordstrom, Macy's and Westlake center. Safe neighborhood and a comfort room(Artist King). Want to visit again. Area recommendations Downtown Seattle is a blast! More

My husband and I stayed here last weekend for our anniversary and thought it was nice. It's a cool, stylish hotel that's not self-important. Small room and really compact bathroom. My husband said the shower was too small and the shower curtain kept clinging to him. I had a hard time regulating the temperature; it seemed like it was too... More

Well, there's not way to beat this location. Minutes to walk most anywhere. A block from Nordstroms and the monorail, and a few more to Pike Place. Very trendy boutique type hotel. Wonderful ambience, amenities and furnishings. Bed was great. This would be 5 stars but the bathrooms are a bit small. OK, they're small. Nice... but small. Aveeno tolitries,... More

This has become our go-to hotel in Seattle and I wish there was a similar place everywhere we travel. The staff, notably Topher for us, go out of there way to accommodate you, find you the best rate or package, advise you on whats going on in town, and will upgrade you when they can.

I've stayed at Hotel Max 4 or 5 times within the last few years. Good location, clean, excellent value at around $100 (and quite often they have a promo). It is modern and has lots of cool factor, and I am pleased to say that unlike similar places, the staff has no hipper-than-thau attitude; they've always been kind and responsive.... More

I found out about Hotel Max through a coupon deal. I would definitely return, the artwork and decor alone is great, and the staff were nice, courteous and helpful. The location is great, right downtown. We didn't get a chance to go to the restaurant, but there were lots of great restaurants, bars, galleries and shopping within walking distance. The... More
