Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center

I enjoyed my stay at Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center. The staff was courteous and helpful, the hotel was clean and well maintained, and the location was convenient to multiple attractions throughout the city. I would definitely choose to stay at Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center again.

Good location with shuttle bus service every 20 minutes to and from terminal. Diamond Member reserved parking spaces and $15 Hilton Diamond member credit per person towards food. Room was adequate with basic toiletries. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Location was the key factor for me. Was walking distance to airport and sky train to Seattle centre

Asked at check in for extra towel and called after getting to room and never came had to use wet towel of family member. Never told shuttle typically only stops in one spot and waiting over an hour for a pick up. No bellman offered to help till I already was pulling my own luggage cart. When manager sent standard email asking about the stay I did identify issues and all he offered was insufficient Hilton points which would only be enough for a Hilton garden inn not hotel of this caliber. Grounds of hotel are nice -- pretty courtyard but staff needs training to fit to the Hilton brand.

Next to Airport

This Hilton is easily accessible from light rail. The airport shuttle the following morning was available even before our 5 a.m. pickup for our early morning flight.

We stayed at this hotel for an early morning flight and we were a bit disappointed. First, the front desk did a poor job in communicating the instructions in getting to our room and we walked what seemed like a long walk trying to find it. Second, our phone chargers couldn’t go into the plugs of the lamps and the bedside tables because they seemed old and dirty. They just wouldn’t fit in. Third, the showers could’ve used a more thorough cleaning. The grouts looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Other than these issues, the shuttle at 4:00 a.m. was very helpful and quick to the airport.

This is a mostly standard-issue airport Hilton. It stands out because of its location. It is the nearest hotel to SEA-TAC airport and is right next door to the light rail station that will take you downtown and elsewhere for $3 every 10 minutes. I was on a business trip and had to be both downtown and at the airport about equal time, so this was ideal. The downside was that when I took a Lyft downtown for an early morning appointment not near the rail line, it was a $70 one-way ride.

But airport access is unmatched. It was a seven minute walk from baggage claim to the hotel lobby with my carry-ons in tow. Simply follow the signs from baggage claim to the light rail station on the opposite side of the parking garage, and from the light rail station keep going across the highway on the enclosed pedestrian bridge. (There are steps and two elevators back down to ground level) and voila, you come out right next door to the hotel. The hotel runs several airport shuttles if you are overloaded with luggage or can’t manage the walk, but I didn’t try those. The airport arrivals/shittle area looked like mayhem so I was glad to cross above it on the pedestrian bridges.

I read several older reviews suggesting the hotel could have been cleaner or seemed run down. I did not see any hint of that – perhaps there has been a renovation. The lobby, my room, and a conference room I used were all up to date. I heard no airplane noise. The outdoor pool area (inside a quiet private courtyard) was clean and well-appointed. The pool water was warm and there were plenty of loungers and tables. The hot tub was closed for major repairs when I was there but it looked like they were actively working (although I saw no workers).

I prefer not to stay right by any airport, but if I needed to stay near the airport in Seattle again, there is no question I’d come back here.

It convenient to sky bridge and it was very clean. The staff at the restaurant were very hospitable and made the dining experience enjoyable.

The in house laundry was great to have as we had just finished a cruise heading into week two of our vacation.

Location, room, cleanliness, front desk staff.
