What guests think

At Best Western Plus Pioneer Square Hotel Downtown, reviewers highlight a central, walkable location near the waterfront, stadiums, and transit, friendly and helpful staff, and a clean, historic property that balances old world charm with practical comforts and value.

Parking is available but paid and sometimes a block or more away, while the elevator can be slow or briefly out of service.

The surrounding Pioneer Square has visible homelessness and periodic construction, so expect an urban environment with easy access to sights.

The bed was very comfortable. The room was clean. Parking is a block and a half away. The elevator was out of service and we were on the 4th floor. Usually not a deal breaker but I was having massive back issues and the stairs sucked. Was glad to see a waffle iron out for the continental breakfast.

The only thing we did not like was there was no onsite parking and the closest was a 10 minute walk. A thing to keep in mind is the parking garage opens at 8am on Saturdays and closes at midnight so just be aware.

When I was looking for a place to stay on Expedia I specified “free parking” as a requirement. There was no free parking at this hotel. I’m extremely disappointed that Expedia didn’t filter out this property because parking was a $30 extra charge on top of a fairly expensive room. Please correct your filters so that doesn’t happen again.

Nice room in an older building. No view from our room except the building next door. Room and hotel were very clean. Very close to waterfront and Luman Field. Breakfast was ok. Not much hot food other than making your own waffle or toast. Check in and out was easy. On site parking garage was nice.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel and the room was overall clean. However, the bathroom had a strong urine smell that was even stronger after it was cleaned. It appears that they use a product that has a smell that resembles urine. The king size bed room was a bit tight.

As others have mentioned, this is an older hotel, but I still felt like it's well-maintained and the age didn't negatively impact my stay. You can't beat the location in regards to walking down to the waterfront and exploring all of the piers or catching a ferry or guided boat tour. It's also a short walk to the Pioneer Square light rail station, which easily connects you to the airport. I know there is a homeless problem nearby, but I did not have any bad experiences or encounters. As for my room, I was upgraded (from a full bed to a queen), and the room met my needs. Comfortable bed and a functioning AC, as well as WiFi. The free breakfast is solid too. I'd definitely consider staying here again primarily due to location.

Beautiful historic hotel with clean and comfortable rooms equipped with essential amenities. Excellent and friendly staff especially Trapp who allowed us to check-in early and offered cold water and snacks upon arrival. Cleaning crew were wonderful although hallways had a musty smell. Continental breakfast with many options and the serving crew were on top of refilling and cleaning promptly. Location close to the ferry terminal and a few blocks to 1-Line light rail to the airport. The value was excellent for the location!

We stayed her to attend a football game. We loved the walk ability and proximity to Lumen Filed. It’s definitely an older building with classic Character, but it was clean and the staff was great. I was surprised at the size of the room. It was much smaller Than expected, but met our needs. Lots of restaurants around and close to the board walk and Pikes Place. Great place to stay if you won’t be renting a car.

Truly was a charming great (brief / just overnight) stay. Love the Pioneer Sq area of Seattle - charming and close to Amtrak and downtown features. My room was compact (but not too small), with all amenities. I did suggest to the front desk person that a grab bar in shower would be good idea and he cheerfully took the suggestion. But if that was the only idea I had for improvement (I used to run a bed and breakfast), we're in great shape. All three staff I encountered were cheerful, responsive, and helpful. The continental breakfast was fine and the lady in charge was welcoming and bustling around helping at 6:30 AM. I have this hotel in my list now as great place for repeat visits to Seattle.

We were very disappointed given the price that we paid for a night. I like older hotels, but the room was truly tiny- no place to open our suitcases. Our room looked onto walls in one direction and an alley overflowing with trash in the other. We were told that none of the rooms had views. Maybe there was once a pleasant lobby, but no longer. This was apparently once a budget hotel- it should still be inexpensive.

It was a nice enough place if it werent for the fact that they left an ozone generator on in our room (we had never seen one so we didnt know what it was) and we had breathing problems the entire night with residual symptoms continuing into a day later. Staff were slow and ill informed of what to do in this situation and the manager insisted she "investigate" our room— total breach of privacy as we still were in there at the time. Eventually they did offer a refund, though Im not entirely sure if itll be enough to cover my friend with asthma's medical expenses. In a nutshell, these people poisoned us on accident. If you stay here and see a blue box, unplug it! It could kill you!

It was a great hotel, unfortunately the area around the hotel is unsafe. We found ourselves on 3rd Avenue which was terrifying. That street is only a few blocks from this hotel. So many homeless people who are begging for money and on drugs. Great location in regards to near the piers and ferry but unfortunate the city has so many homeless people.

They also provided breakfast which was delicious and had some of the best apples I've had at a hotel! Would highly recommend and look forward to returning.

The check was fast and easy, and the room was really small and kind of cramped, but it was clean and had all the necessities. What amazed me was in the morning, they had an incredible selection of food for breakfast, a bottle filler for your water bottles, and an espresso machine all included in the price of the room! The area it's located is also fantastic, right downtown Seattle, a walk or scooter ride from endless things to do. Would definitely stay here again!

If you were expecting the latest and most modern amenities in a historic building, this might be one to pass on. However, for us the value and level of service were outstanding. The staff were polite and helpful, providing assistance and supplying forgotten toiletries. Breakfast was well supplied with variety and good quality. The location is right on the water, with close proximity to all the Pioneer Square attractions and other downtown attractions. All of those things combined with an extremely reasonable price would lead me to stay here again. The only downside is the cost of parking. I would prefer to have that cost included with the initial booking to better evaluate total cost of staying. That being said, the parking was on the property and both secure and private.
