Historical Traveller Reviews of Best Western Executive Inn Hotel
Great Place to Stay
from Roadtravlr
I stayed at the Best Western Executive Inn for three nights. For my trip, the location was PERFECT. It was a four minute walk to Seattle Center so seeing the Experience Music Project/Sci Fi Museum and Space Needle and the monorail etc was so easy. The hotel is along several regular bus routes and near different restaurants and eateries. Walking to the Queen Anne neighborhood was no problem. In terms of the hotel itself--the staff was friendly. I had a double queen room and it was clean and well-furnished with a fridge and microwave that came in handy. There was also free wireless access throughout the hotel--a big plus! A previous reviewer mentioned the room smelled and they did not have 24 hour room service--this was not true. I think that reviewer was confused--there is a Best Western Loyal Inn a few blocks over (and it did not look as appealing as the Best Western Executive Inn). If I'm in Seattle again, I'm definitely going to book at the Best Western Executive Inn.
I will be back
from HappyTrailsCanada
Our room was clean and comfortable, the location was very convenient to Seattle Center, there was free on-site parking, and the staff were generally very friendly and helpful. If one likes to walk, there are many restaurants to choose from, but not next door.
The next time I am in Seattle, this will be my first choice. My only suggestions are that one not rely on the shuttle service. While they do their best to accommodate people, they can't always be available at the time people would like. It might be useful if they set up a reservation system so one would know whether or not the mini bus would be available when needed. Also I did miss the continental breakfast which many other Best Westerns provide, although there was tea and coffee, as well as apples and cookies if you were in the lobby early enough.

Okay to Stay, Though Amneities Stank
from A TripAdvisor Member
Booked this hotel through Travelocity because it was close to the Space Needle and had a restaurant. The restaurant should be avoided at all costs - food is overpriced and despite my waitress's best intentions, almost inedible. First night there we ate dinner. I ordered Steak and Shrimp for almost $19 only to receive a dry over cooked tiny piece of meat and two shrimp. Tried getting roomservice the next day for breakfast, was informed they do not serve room service on weekends! Room was clean but was non-smoking and smelled like cigarettes. Wouldn't stay there again.
Good place to stay in Seattle
from calvin-the-dog
Conveniently located close to the Seattle Center, the Space Needle, the EMP and the Northern surroundings of Seattle, this is a very nice hotel. We enjoyed during two different stays in July 05 a fine service. Rooms are large, Wi-Fi is available for free in every room, secured and closed parking, etc. Quiet location.
On top of that, we appreciated the quality of the food in the restaurant. We recommend more specially the “Belgian waffles” for the breakfast… We know what we are talking about: we are from Belgium!
All in all: an excellent choice for Seattle.

Our First Year Staying At Best Westerns
from hasletthoney
This year on our vacation we stayed at 3 different BW locations. We were pleased with all of them. At the Executive we booked an upgraded room and were satisfied with everything even if it was a little expensive. The room had a couch, chair & footstool, fridge, microwave, king size bed and a few touches that made it a little more luxurious than average. We had a great view of the Space Needle and we took the monorail down to Pike Place Market and walked around the waterfront and Pioneer Square. Glad we didn't have to drive in Seattle as that alone could have ruined our visit. This hotel was cheaper than one on the waterfront or right in the downtown business district and the monorail or the free zone for the bus make getting around easy. We actually like to walk so did that except for the mono back and forth from the Space Needle. The front desk gave us directions to the ferry for our trip to the Olympic Penisula and were in general courteous and helpful. All in all we'd stay here again if we ever return to Seattle.
service rated with any 5 star hotel !

I have not stayed at Best Westerns in years, but maybe I should start if this hotel is any indication:
1. good, clean , quiet, confortable and clean rooms
2. good size rooms
3. decent exercise room and indoor hot tub
4. good price
5. excellent location
6. free parking which definitely played into our decision to book ( we had 6 rooms for 12 guests)
7. free shuttle service which we used serveral times - to baseball game, downtown drops, etc. Wonderful.
8. all the front desk staff were friendly and went above the norm to help us out with any questions. I think a young staff has more energy and Best Western must be training properly. I think I was greeted almost every time we came in, day or night. This should be the standard for any hotel; the staff actually made you feel like a wanted client rather than another annoying tourist. Thanks.

Better than Expected
from Elaine32
We wanted something cheap near the Space Needle. I was expecting a tired, worn out property but it was well cared for, the rooms are nicely decorated. The neighborhood is so-so. Two blocks to the Space Needle. For pizza and salad head to Zeeks.
Great deal, great location
from A TripAdvisor Member
Stayed here w/ my husband, mother and small dog. Pet friendly was a huge plus for us. Front desk staff was great. Location is amazing! We had a view of the Space Needle out our window. Room was spacious. Free parking. Used hot tub and fitness room, both were great. Office center which allows free computer and internet use was a great bonus as I did not have my laptop with me. Only poss neg is that the free shuttle seems a bit disorganized and was overbooked for our trip to the Mariner's game. I would definitely go back.
We loved our stay
from A TripAdvisor Member
I was expecting the worst and received the best. This Hotel is located just two blocks from the Pacific Science Center and the Space Needle. If you are looking to do downtown Seattle as a tourist you cannot do much better, in my opinion, than the Best Western Executive Inn. I utilized Expedia and got a double queen for 65.00 a night. In my opinion it was a great deal. I and my daughter cannot think of one negative experience. Secure parking was a nice plus. Front desk staff was exceptional. Breakfast was great. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Bottom line.....Great value in Downtown Seattle and I would stay there again and again.
Enjoyed our stay, but improvements are needed
from lmac614
We just returned from vacationing in Seattle and stayed at the Best Western Executive Inn. I got an excellent rate on Priceline (I didn't know how excellent until the front desk personnel refused to state my rate out loud.) This hotel is in an excellent location and the free parking is a plus. However, the rooms do need updated, the soundproofing is not adequate and the customer service is not the best. Some of the personnel were most helpful and went out of their way to be of service; others acted as if they could care less. The free shuttle service they are so quick to advertise is extremely unreliable and our driver apparently was not from Seattle, as he drove with a map on his lap, generally in all the wrong directions. We were stranded one evening all alone on the waterfront; the shuttle driver indicated that he was very busy and said we should take a cab. Did I have the phone number of the cab company? No, I did not. The restaurant personnel were also undertrained. Overall, I felt the hotel and restaurant were not well managed. If you know what you're getting into, however, the place was fine.
Top Local Tips for Seattle
SkyCity at the Space Needle If you are here with your significant other, you have to have dinner at least once at this restaurant. It's expensive but when you dine here, it includes access to the observation deck, which I think is $16/adult. Food, service, drinks, and view are all excellent! Highly romantic place to be.
Go to the Science Museum Definitely visit the butterfly garden
Family friendly, good chinesse resturant Find the chinesse resturant on the other side of the Key Arena. It's in walking distance and very good.
