I booked and prepaid for my room at this hotel, specifically for the location on 4th avenue. I got an email from hotel.com the same day I expected to check in, stating that my reservation had been revoked. So I called, I spoke to Maria from the front desk, who assured me my res was still in good standing. I arrive to hotel and the front desk disappeared with my ID for 20 minutes, only to come back and tell me they overbooked and had no room for me. I travel a lot in general, I book direct sometimes and sometimes thru Expedia, and have never experienced something like this. And from a company like Fairmont? Let’s be fair, I would expect that from motel 6 but this was a five star property. I will never spend money there again. And if I could give zero stars I would.

Service in the hotel was extremely bad.
- We booked a suite. Reception did not inform us that our suite consisted of two separate rooms. After an hour of confusion, we realized that we had to go to the other room from the hallway to open the joining door.
- At the pool, my wife asked directions for the locker rooms and reply was more or less one word answer.
- We ordered breakfast to the room, which never arrived. After we called room service again, they said it was cancelled and person started arguing with my wife.
- I still haven't received my folio by email. I have already sent an additional request.

It's a beautiful hotel, but the service is one star at best.

I booked a luxury suite through Expedia at this 5-star hotel, paying over $1,000 per night expecting a large, unified suite experience. Unfortunately, that is not what I received.
At check-in, I was given keys to one room with no explanation. When I entered, it felt much smaller than what I expected for a suite that was supposed to be around 1,200 square feet. I’m not someone who usually complains, but something clearly didn’t seem right.
Around 1:00 a.m., I finally called the front desk and was told the suite actually consisted of two completely separate rooms — with the second room located across the hall. This was never explained at check-in and was not clearly communicated when I booked through Expedia. When most people book a suite, especially at this price point, they expect connected space — not separate rooms across the hallway.
To make things worse, the bathroom appeared to have been poorly remodeled. There was paint and drywall residue visible, and the finish looked incomplete and messy. This is not what you expect from a luxury 5-star hotel, especially at this price level.
This miscommunication took away from the experience and cost me time I should have been enjoying my stay.
To make matters worse, even though my reservation was prepaid through Expedia, the hotel charged my card again at check-in. I was told they would have to contact accounting to process a refund, which added more inconvenience and concern.
Overall, very disappointed with the communication

I will start with saying the below issues aren't ruin the trip type of issues just things I would think would/could be better for the money spent.
Cons: Bathroom had stains on the wallpaper and hairs stuck to the ceiling. Order room service by phone and the food never shows. So like a normal human I called to the desk. However, the phone in the room connects you to automated system which puts you on hold for as long as you're able to. My limit was 10 minutes on hold. Talked to the front desk in the morning and was told to text them if it happens again or just order at the front desk and then go to your room. Which I personally feel like that negates the luxury of room service in it's entirety. The TV \"guide\" feature didn't work and neither did any of the info buttons. Again not massive issues and we weren't in the room a lot but a fully functional newer TV would make the room a little bit better.
Pros: Great historic building! Coffee shop in the lower level was great and the gluten free muffin was pretty good too. The bed was firm and comfortable. The lobby and bar has amazing woodwork and is beautiful. The lemon water and water dispenser in the gym were great for filling up our water bottles. The location is amazing, walked around all 4 days we stayed there only took ubers to dinner. The Nespresso coffee machines in the room were nice to get the day started. All in all it was a decent stay but I feel like for the money spent on 4 nights there are nicer options.

The Seattle Fairmont hotel made a mistake and didn’t properly record our reservation. We had an Expedia reservation number but when we went to hotel the Fairmont didn’t have it and we couldn’t stay. Despite having already paid.
Expedia helped us throughout the process and refunded us. This is entirely on the Fairmont hotel.
I recommend to stay away from the bad management style.

I paid an additional fee to attend the New Year’s Eve event, which included a reserved table and bottle service. Unfortunately, the event was poorly managed and did not meet reasonable service standards. Our server did not attend to our table for over an hour, and service throughout the evening was inconsistent and inadequate.
Despite having a paid, private reservation, multiple intoxicated guests repeatedly occupied our table and consumed the bottle we had ordered. There was no staff oversight to ensure our reserved seating and purchases were respected.
I raised these concerns with the manager, who apologized and indicated the matter would be addressed. However, upon visiting our table, it was evident that several unauthorized guests were still seated there and continuing to consume our ordered bottle. The situation was not effectively resolved.
Given the premium pricing for this event, the level of organization, service, and guest management was unacceptable. Overall, the experience was disappointing and did not reflect the quality or value expected

Lobby is very small and the check in process along with guests trying to get a drink at the bar can be very crowded and overwhelming. There’s just no space to move around. Bunch of extra fees for a room service on top of the resort fee at the end of the stay just didn’t seem worth it when the service serviced was standard and not necessarily exceptional (like one of the waiter at the bar treated us like we’re on a fast food chain always in a hurry didn’t even smile nor made a friendly demeanor.)

Essentially what you’re paying for is the downstairs lobby, which is was renovated beautifully. The rooms are outdated and lacking in amenities for what they charge a night. Our water was also completely shut off with no warning to us in the morning. No shower, sink or toilet, but luckily we had plans to be somewhere else that day. Just not the experience we were expecting and hoping for, so it will not be somewhere we return to for a stay when visiting Seattle.

The hotel was super busy and the staff were doing a great job of trying to manage things, but it took over half an hour to drop the car off at valet, more than an hour to get our luggage and we did not get access to our second room until 6pm. I felt sorry for the people who were working a second shift. I had been told we could get a rollaway for each room, it at check-in they said that they coukdn’t put a rollaway in a room that had 2 beds in it due to fire regulations. The room was super spacious which was nice, and it could easily have accommodated a rollaway.

Such an amazing experience! My husband and I stayed here a few weeks ago for the first time ever and we were so in love we had to come back with our kids! We surprised them with an overnight trip and they were AMAZED by how beautiful and “fancy” everything was.
Valet is also wonderful, I believe “Curtis” was his name, long dark hair, always hustling. He is wonderful and such a nice guy, very insightful as well.
We plan to make this a holiday tradition for the years to come. We don’t have experience during other seasons, but I have to say, Christmas time is the best time! The trees, the lights, the smells…it was all wonderful. The pool is also so beautiful and a great temperature (as well as the hot tub). Fresh, comfy robes for all 4 of us (my husband is a big guy, 6’2” 295lbs and the robe even fit him perfectly!). Cannot wait to return! Only “Negative” that comes to mind is that the room service closes at 10pm for dessert. I think this should definitely be available until midnight, just as the “late night snacks” were available to order until 12am. But all in all 10/10, will stay here again in the future for years to come.

I requested a late check out, which I received, but I paid half a day’s rate for only 3 additional hours and was told by the front desk (when I inquired) that they were far too busy to allow an additional hour for me (as I waited for my train)

The Fairmont Hotel is a beautiful facility. Situated in a great location. Check-in was very smooth and step or very polite.However, the hidden cost associated with it are outrageous. Parked our car one night, we were charged $65 plus tax. There’s a $30 resort fee, which I guess is standard. $32 for a generic sausage and egg breakfast nine dollars for a cup of coffee. Out of date TVs in hotel room. Never picked up about eight empty alcohol classes outside of the room.

I recently stayed at the Fairmont Olympic and want to highlight how warm, friendly, and professional the staff were throughout my visit. Every employee I encountered was kind and clearly committed to providing good service, and the historic ambiance of the hotel is truly lovely.

However, a few aspects of the stay didn’t quite meet the expectations of a 5-star hotel. I later discovered it is actually considered a 4 star hotel. That is misleading on Expedia.

At peak times, the lobby felt unusually busy and chaotic, which made it hard to move through comfortably. The only breakfast restaurant was completely full with a 45min wait, and no alternative seating or dining options were offered — something that stood out, especially given the hotel’s luxury rating.

While there was basic coffee available in the lobby early in the morning, there were no early breakfast options or the ability to get a latte or espresso drink until 7 AM. Earlier food and specialty coffee availability would make a meaningful difference.

None of these points take away from how lovely the staff were, but they are noticeable because the hotel is positioned as a 5-star property. With improved crowd management and more flexible morning dining options, the experience could more closely match the high level of service I would think.

I booked a suite with a pull out sofa and a king sized bed. I was traveling with my son and this room offered a little more space and privacy. The sofa was not a pull out - staff offered to bring a roll away bed - or move us into a room with 2 doubles - both of which were problematic. Also - the hotel tried to charge me for food (which we didn't have) and included a $30 / day (+tax) resort fee to my bill - we didn't use any amenities. Very poor - this is not the Fairmont experience / service I'm used to.
