"My goto hotel when I go over for business. A few minutes walk from the water and from my office. Friendly staff when your jet lagged, and friendly restaurant staff when you just need a burger and a beer."

"Service like a 5 star hotel! I recently stayed at the Ritz in SFO, and I can tell you that the service at the Kimpton Palladian had that same flair! But here, you felt like the folks were that dedicated because they really love this vintage personable hotel! And like there is a policy that bleeds top down, that teaches the staff to value the customers! The Kimpton Palladium is really a fantastic hotel! Some of my favorite parts are: 1. Location, 2 safe walking blocks from Pike Place Market 2. ⁠Small size and even more intimate vibe 3. ⁠Food Quality! Get the duck hash. 😉 4. ⁠Attention to detail 5. ⁠Perfectly clean! Even the air! 6. ⁠Lovely decor style 7. ⁠Good linens 8. ⁠Nice smelling body wash makes a great bubbly bath 9. ⁠I’m a sucker for a claw foot tub 10. ⁠Really the most stand out thing IS the service provided by the staff! That is what makes any hotel stay feel just outstanding!"

"Very friendly staff! Easy and welcoming check in. The rooms are unique in decorating. The food is unbelievably awesome, seriously the food is super duper fantastic! Its a easy walk to Pike Place Market. The deli grocery store across the street has awesome sandwiches. I can't wait to come back to this clean friendly hotel!"

"We visited for a few days and the staff was awesome. We had several meals at Shaker and Spear which was on impressive. David and the team were super accommodating to our large group….and the food was fantastic. Try the burger and anything on the brunch menu"

"We had one of the best hotel experiences ever! From the moment we arrived until we left the staff exceeded our expectations; they were graciously friendly, helpful and knowledgeable to every aspect of the area. The weekend front desk ladies were simply the sweetest-always smiling ready to help and give us tidbits of local information. This quirky but beautiful hotel is located in the heart of it all-a block away from Pike’s Place Market; half mile easy walk to the Space Needle and museums and surround by some of the best restaurants in the area. However, the must eat restaurant is right is the hotel: Shaker & Spear. We sat at the chef’s bar and watched as Patrick created numerous delicacies. The experience was very interactive and we enjoyed the entire cooking staff and the food was as amazing, if not better than five star! We ate a second night in the hotel’s bar-the food was again from Shaker & Spear: outstanding, as was the staff and our beverages. The cheese board and nuts were a tasty must try. We are already planning our next trip; highly recommend!"
