My Wife and my 2-nite birthday getaway gone bad.

Seabreeze98 TripAdvisor review

Very dissatisfied! Cold room service food, rude attendant for the daily sparking wine (free toast). Misleading daily housekeeping room credit ($10.00 p/d) for not having housekeeping. E.g., if you order room service they automatically charge a $8.00 service fee and 20% gratuity fee. So, these two fees totally overspend the $10.00 per day credit they claim to give you for not having the daily housekeeping. We've been coming here for ~20 years and this Hotel is definitely getting worse, probably will not stay again.

3 rooms, 3 families, 3 days!

Took the whole family to Seattle for a long week-end. So glad I chose this hotel. The kiddos loved the indoor pool. It was spacious and clean. The hot tub was huge! The rooms, the service, the location...this hotel has it all. You just can't go wrong choosing a Fairmont property.

It's a trifecta! Family memories made are amongst our favorites! We are thrilled that your families enjoyed your stay, the hotel and each other. Please keep us in mind for the next family gathering and make it a tradition. Thank you for sharing your great experience.

i often stay at the seattle Fairmont and always want a room with a tub but this time got only a shower. You would think after all these visits the Fairmont would remember my preferences.

It’s a gorgeous classic property that’s well maintained and thoughtfully modernized. The valets and concierge and housekeeping and front desk and conference AV techs were helpful, efficient, customer-focused, and lovely. The basement coffee shop team were unruffled and sweet despite the morning rush. The lobby bar, however, seemed to be staffed by surly misanthropes who loathed their job and wanted everyone to go somewhere else. Multiple nights we gathered there, mostly empty-handed because we were aggressively ignored, even despite other staff coaching us on which bartender might be more likely to help us. The bar was a bizarre exception to a charming luxury property.

Fairmont Olympic is a no brainer

Juliana T TripAdvisor review

Truly exceptional experience! Our check-in was so easy and seamless in addition to being the perfect amount of efficient and informative. Our room is spacious and very clean with everything we need for a comfortable stay. I appreciate the sustainability initiative to opt out of daily service and receive a credit since I rarely have it on a short stay anyway. The Fairmont Olympic is a no brainer when visiting Seattle. If I could give 10 stars I would.

An exceptional experience for our guests is always the goal and so glad we delivered. Sustainability is extremely important to us and thank you for pointing out our efforts. We gladly accept your 10 stars!
