Seattle and related destinations

Beneath rain-washed skies, Pike Place Market buzzes with fishmongers tossing salmon through the air and vendors arranging flowers in kaleidoscopic displays. The Space Needle offers obligatory views, but locals prefer watching ferries criss-cross Elliott Bay from Kerry Park's hillside perch. Duck into the original Starbucks (prepare for lines) before exploring the Seattle Aquarium's underwater world. The Gum Wall presents a strangely compelling (if slightly disgusting) public art installation near Pike Place. Catch performances at historic Moore Theatre or The Showbox, where music legends have graced the stage for decades. Seattle Centre houses museums beneath the Space Needle's watchful gaze, while cruise ships depart from Bell Street and Terminal 91 towards Alaskan adventures.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Seattle

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Seattle is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city's rich history and vibrant culture, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This duration allows visitors to enjoy the key landmarks, including impressive skyscrapers, engaging museums, lively theatres, and charming shopping districts, all while experiencing the city's stunning scenery and vibrant live music scene. This makes for a budget-friendly trip that offers great value for money.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Seattle, begin by exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. To stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions, consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com, ensuring you don't miss any chances to save. Additionally, utilise the Smart Shopping tool available via the app to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you're more likely to see the best options. This way, you'll be promptly notified of any available rooms or price drops for a spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so having some flexibility with your travel dates could help you find a more affordable stay in a Seattle hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we’ll suggest alternative dates that might help you find a more appealing rate.
  4.
