Food27 mentions · 2 filmed
- “Goldfinch Tavern serves a fantastic brunch and one of the better hotel breakfasts in the city” 1
- “In the case of Four Seasons Seattle, there's just one restaurant and it's so good. Goldfinch Tavern offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, which works out great because you may want to eat all of your meals here.” 11
- “The dusky twilight radiating through Goldfinch's large bay view windows added much atmosphere to the restaurant's already chic and contemporary design.” 24
- “The bartender was great though and made something very similar. We were also able to have breakfast in the morning, which would have cost about $100 without the FHR benefit. Service was great, and the food was delicious.” 26
- “The Four Seasons is just about unarguably Seattle's most luxurious property. It has a central location with beautiful views, impeccable service, a great gym, an outdoor pool and hot tub, a full service spa, and an all-day restaurant (and 24/7 room service).” 23
- “all of the food here was superb even if you're a local you're missing out if you don't come here” On camera254:14
- “The airy dining room features waterfront views and a warm, tavern-style ambiance.” 1

- “Breakfast service in the ajoining restaurant didn't start until after 10am (could only get a coffee in the bar) as the chef hadn't turned in and everyone else was new.” 17
- “The food was phenomenal, featuring locally sourced ingredients celebrating the bounty of the Pacific Northwest. From the freshest of oysters and Walla Walla onion bisque to delicious Dungeness crab, to the palate-cleansing huckleberry lemon sherbert, every bite showcased the region's diverse flavours.” 24
- “In the room there was a pamphlet about the hotel's "coffee concierge," whereby you can have complimentary coffee delivered to your room between 6AM and 10AM daily. This is coffee in partnership with the adjacent Fonte coffee shop, and I found the drip coffee to be exceptional.” 23
- “I had lunch at the restaurant and lounge, ART. My lunch was fabulous, but unfortunately, ART closed the next day for a 2 month renovation!” 21
- “I have a food allergy. The menu was clearly marked with allergens. The servers did a great job answering my questions and helping me figure out what I could safely order.” 11
- “Goldfinch Tavern offers great views of the waterfront and delicious food.” 9
- “The restaurant is good, but there are a LOT of better ones nearby.” 19

- “Let's start with one of my favorite topics-the food. We had breakfast at the Four Seasons Seattle's restaurant, Goldfinch Tavern, and it was pretty much to die for. Highly recommend the Northwest Breakfast Hash and their Smoked Salmon Benedict. So, so good.” 14
- “The hotel offers 24-hour in-room dining with a well-curated menu of local favorites, healthy options, and comfort food.” 1
- “Four Seasons is the quality and service you would expect of a major hotel, but you might enjoy the W as well..it's a high end hotel but a bit more alternative in its approach with a great restaurant below.” 8
- “As we were working during the day, we decided to order lunch, and had the Pike Place Chop and Wynn Salad. Both salads were fresh and flavorful.” 23
- “We stayed at the Kimpton Vintage, we enjoyed the fact it was wine-themed! It was a gorgeous friendly place, with lots of perks like bar credit and free desserts in the Tulio restaurant. 5th Avenue at Spring, handy for downtown and Pike Place.” 17
- “The Goldfinch Tavern serves praised chef-prepared meals.” 5
- “Early check-in was much appreciated, especially when traveling with a child, and the kid amenities will put a smile on most any kid's (and parent's) face: a cute stuffed animal, child-size bathrobe, some delicious (and organic) welcome treats, and a kids' menu and activity book at ART Restaurant (review to come).” 16
- “We came for the Sunday brunch and loved it! The Sunday brunch includes 3-courses and bottomless mimosas for $59 per person. We both enjoyed our food and recommend everything that we ordered: For appetizers, we had the Goldfinch Chowder and Roasted Vegetables and Quinoa Salad.” 6

- “Ok, it's not the Four Seasons ;o)))....but we had a great stay at the Embassy Suites! Really punching above its weight in every respect, especially the large quiet room with fabulous views.” 17
- “The suites have much larger bathrooms including a double vanity and marble tile, a living area, dining area that could also double as a desk, and much large wardrobe space. Plus, the views are second to none.” 21
- “The furnishings are spacious and modern, with large bathrooms, and generous in-room amenities. Your room will come stocked with L'Occitane bath products and gourmet coffee.” 11
- “I thought the room felt luxurious, though not cutting edge or ultra modern. It's clear that the hotel has undergone a soft refresh in recent years, but I don't think it has undergone a full renovation since opening.” 23
- “The Four Seasons Seattle hard product (furniture) is dated but soft product is spectacular and I just love the property.” 19
- “In our Deluxe Elliot Bay suite, the understated elegance continued. It was thoughtfully designed with a neutral colour palette of caramel and soft blue, paying homage to the natural hues of the Pacific Northwest and complements the stunning views of the Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains (not to mention the Seattle Great Wheel) all perfectly framed by floor-to-ceiling windows.” 24
- “The room features a contemporary and minimalist design with luxurious bathrooms” 26
- “They also offer cheaper non-refundable rooms. We managed to check in early and the room was compact but well designed with a super king bed against the far wall with a large window.” 17
- “Rooms are expectedly elegant, Northwest-style decor featuring wood and stone details - chaise longues, neutral cream palettes, upholstered headboards, and majestic bathrooms.” 22
- “Interestingly enough there is no in-room coffee machine! However, the hotel does set up a tea/coffee station in the lobby every morning, though I do normally prefer having my first cup before getting ready for the day.” 26
- “The building next door felt quite close, and most vantage points from our room looked directly into those apartments, and not at the harbour. This is definitely a very accommodating business hotel, with a large desk and comfortable office chair.” 26
- “I wanted to show what the view looks like. This is what the views looks like when standing at the window. Look at those beautiful Olympic Mountains!” 21
- “Beside the television was the minibar area, which looked equally impressive.” 26
- “The hotel hallways (and much of the room decor) is contemporary and minimalist, which I really like, but I don't think the photos do the decor justice.” 26
- “Around 500 square feet, my creamy-walled Prime Bay Room is large enough to fit a cushy chaise lounge, a king-sized bed with a massive upholstered headboard, and a 42-inch plasma television.” 28
- “The minibar had a good selection of drinks and snacks along with glasses.” 7
- “As one might expect being in one of America's great tech hubs, the room was well-equipped for electronics super-users with lots of outlets, charging stations, and entertainment tech.” 27
- “My favorite aspect of the interior design was the textured wallpaper behind the bed. It looked like clouds with a mix of cool and warm hues. The decor was subtle, as the outdoor views were the star of the room, but I thought the wallpaper added a dreamy touch to the sleeping space.” 20
- “Both of these requests were welcomed with ease, and I was assured there would be alternate bathroom amenities and dog bowls on arrival. They weren't, which lead me to believe the front desk agent was most certainly lying when he said the room had been upgraded prior to our arrival (the other amenities were in the originally assigned room).” 26
- “Corner suites at the Four Seasons are marketed as being 795 square feet (74 square meters), so they're quite generously sized, and have a fully separate living room and bedroom.” 23
- “great closet space as our son discovered” On camera251:32
- “Honestly, it'd be difficult to find a hotel better situated than the Four Seasons Hotel Seattle. Although you might not want to leave the comfort of your room, the best of Seattle sits just outside the hotel entrance.” 11
- “After the horrid coffee situation at the Thompson Seattle, I was delighted to see a Nespresso machine in the room. On top of that, there was a kettle with a selection of complimentary RISHI teas, plus a variety of drinks and snacks available for purchase.” 23
- “We had a great stay at the Kimpton Palladian. Smallish rooms but we were in Seatttle to do things, not stay in a hotel room.” 17
- “Now, let's have a look at our bedroom. It is massive.” On camera21:04
- “and just loving these views I just got to the room and it's great to look at you can see the water and you can see the port with all the ships out there” On camera101:51

- “The views from the room were.... just ok. I would have been really disappointed had I paid for the partial harbour view, but it's better than nothing.” 26
- “In the nearly $1,000-a-night room, I had better views of Seattle than at any viewpoint I ventured to during my three-day trip. And the best part was that I didn't even have to leave my bed to see it.” 20
- “The bedroom was separated from the living room by a door, and had the typical signature Four Seasons bed, which is the most comfortable in the industry.” 23
- “The room design was a bit odd - I didn't like the art print on the wall as I would have liked to see local Northwest artists or Seattle colors from Chihuly, the lamps each had a different color and shapes and they had a Boeing plane for sale on the bedside table - just odd and unexpected.” 7
- “On to my favorite part of the room - the views! My goodness, talk about a breathtaking view of Elliott Bay!” 23
- “At about 475 square feet, the room had a very standard layout but felt quite spacious.” 26

- “At the front of the room was a spacious closet and plenty of amenities.” 20
Bathroom15 mentions · 5 filmed
- “The bathroom was stunning, as is the norm at most Four Seasons' properties, though I was a bit shocked at the small vanity area with only one sink.” 26
- “There's another TV built into the mirror in the marbled bathroom, and if soaking in a cavernous tub while watching old episodes of Sex in the City isn't the height of luxury, well, we don't know what is.” 28
- “Nice rain shower with decent pressure.” 17
- “Honestly, I think this is the nicest bathroom I've ever seen in a hotel.” On camera21:47
