Residence Inn by Marriott Seattle The District at Northgate

Overall it was a really good stay. The only downfall was our room was not ready when we arrived. This could have potentially been bad since we were on a limited amount of time to get ready and leave for a concert. I will say the young man who checked me in was really kind and apologetic and he gave us free parking for the inconvenience. I really appreciated that. He provided really good service and that helped make a bad situation better. The property was really nice and new. I really loved the bathroom and the kitchen and it had everything you would need to cook. The downfalls of the room were very limited ice and we did not see an ice machine or bucket. There should be an ice machine available seeing as we had no ice in our freezer. We did not have time to use the pool or eat breakfast, however I like that breakfast was free. I liked the convenient parking garage as one of my favorite amenities being right next to the hotel. You don't always find that in Seattle and it was really nice. We also used the light rail to go to a concert and I really appreciated the walkability and how safe the area felt. I felt that my vehicle was safe and I did not feel unsafe walking from the light rail. The room was great, the main downfall I will say is that you can hear noise from the freeway, but did not hear any noise from neighboring rooms which was nice. It was very clean with a comfy bed. Would stay here again for sure.

Most hotels offer free parking. We paid $175 for 6 days — just something to keep in mind.

Very nice, clean. Loved the gym, was able to wash/dry clothes as needed. Very friendly staff.

This is a new property that is well maintained. Rooms are spacious and come with free access to a modern gym and pool. Free buffet breakfast. Rooms facing the highway (west side) are noisy due to traffic and nearby train tracks with trains passing by every 4-5 minutes. Ask for an east facing room. There is no hot tub and breakfast buffet is extremely busy on the weekends.

Very easy check in and loved having parking available on site. The cold beverages on hand to purchase were nice and the pool was clean. The room we had was wonderful for our group of 5 which had two double beds and a pull out couch and full kitchen and dining area.

The good: Friendly, efficient desk clerks. New property which is well maintained. Spacious clean room, ample parking. Well equipped spacious exercise room. Clean pool. The bad: Self service restaurant buffet was a disaster. Only two employees assigned to handle the entire breakfast operation. They ran out of milk, food containers were empty, coffee pots empty, dirty dishes everywhere, not enough seating. A lot of unhappy guests. Noise all night long from passing trains which run every few minutes. This impacts rooms on the west side of the building. Room was not adequately soundproofed. No daily housekeeping service. Nice lobby however coffee and tea station is not stocked on a regular basis. Parking charge excessive. This property has great potential but is definitely falling short of that potential, in ways I previously described.

Stayed here as a family of 5. Great hotel (brand new!), friendly staff and pool was a hit. Breakfast was fantastic with a good selection. Would highly recommend!

Enjoyed our stay there. Staff are helpful and friendly. I was able to utilize their gym, but the pool was not available during our stay. The room was generally clean, but an empty bottle of water was left at bedside and food in the freezer from Previous guest. Overall, I like the hotel and its facilities.

Very clean, great rooms for 5, indoor pool and buffet breakfast

We had a great stay at this hotel! It seemed like it was brand new. Some of the dishware in our kitchen still had labels on it. The staff was excellent, but what really put this place over the edge for me was the FREE EV charging station. You do have to download an app and create an account, but once you do it's completely free. There is also a Tesla charging station on top of the parking garage. My one complaint is I wish this were more walkable. There are restaurants and stores nearby, but there is lots of construction and not enough sidewalk or crosswalks to navigate around easily and safely. But there is a train station next to the hotel, so we used that to get around. All around, this was a great stay!

Clean room and great amenities!

Friendly staff and great location. This is a new hotel and nice inside. We are rewards members and our room was upgraded. However, our room was not very clean, crumbs on the kitchen floor, smears on the door handles, smudges on the windows. The room was nice and big and comfortable though. When I told the staff about this, she said that she would send someone right up to clean it, but we were gone for an hour and came back to a room that was not serviced. The next day we were gone from 9:30 in the morning until 4:30 in the evening and our room was still not serviced! I let the staff know upon checkout and she was apologetic, but did not offer any type of refund.

Very clean looking

Everything was very clean and well maintained. The only thing that could use some work is staffing/stocking morning breakfast. It felt like 30 mins. in and everything was gone.

Generally, the room was fine, and a good breakfast spread. Our only complaint is that we were not told when we checked in that room service was only performed every 4 days! Not knowing this, we had put the towels on the floor. When I inquired why our towels weren't change, we found out about the 4 day rule. Our stay was only 4 days and so no room service, including trash pickup from the kitchette.

Rooms are open and very comfortable and clean

Everything was great. The room was large, clean, and comfortable. They had a great continental breakfast with lots of options. The distance/time to downtown Seattle was not bad and I would definitely stay here again.

Spotless amazing visit!

I was shocked at the Hospitality service. I had no ideal that our room wasn't going to be cleaned on a daily basis based off of research conducted about hotels are no longer providing that service. I had to request towels and toilet paper every other day.

Our tv wouldn’t work for a few hours, there was still someone else’s hair on the bathroom counter from them shaving before us and a bloody towel. Other than that everything was excellent

This is a relatively new property. The room is clean and big and modern design. Location is convenient and a short walk to Light Rails station which is a big plus. However, in some rooms (and we got one of them) the noise from the Light Rails train passing is pretty loud (and less than 10 minutes interval) so if you need a quiet room, this may not be the right place for you.

Plenty of space in the hotel room, comfortable bed. Coffee was better than expected.

The Marriott staffer who checked me in was adamant that I pay $25 for parking; however, I was parked in a small free lot next to the hotel. I later confirmed with the security guard that I would not be ticketed for parking there. Otherwise, the hotel is lovely. Just ask for a room away from I-5, as it's noisy. I gave the area a 2 because Northgate has really gone downhill and I am a single woman.

Nice hotel with clean rooms and comfy beds. There were some maintenance issues in the room that needed to be fixed. (A/C was not working) but they fixed it in a timely manner. The breakfast was the issue as every morning they were out of many items. We went back at different times and they never put more out. How does a hotel not stock enough breakfast food? The plus was the rooms were quiet and it was near the rail system.

Terrible sleep. you can hear the train running all night. Request to sleep on the other side of the track? Wish Breakfast was until 10:00 am and not 9:00 am.

Very unique room layout felt like a studio apartment

Very noisy train on West side of building.

Overall i loved the room. It was more of a small apartment with the kitchen in a separate room. There was quite a bit of noise, the walls are thin. The breakfast was mediocer, the eggs a lost cause. They did have spring rolls one morning which were absolutely delicious! The water was shut off to our part of the hotel for a hole day, and there was no warning. Soapy hands and just out of the shower were a big problem. If i had warning i would not even mention it.

TV never worked..

We enjoyed our stay while visiting Seattle. The entire staff were enthusiastic, warm, welcoming and supportive during our entire stay. Kudos to them!

Easy to get to/from, clean and comfortable. Perfect location to access public transportation to downtown and UW!

The staff here was amazing! Extremely accommodating and kind people. Area was great for us as we have a family member in the Northgate neighborhood, so it was walking distance to them. Also super easy to get on and off the light rail from this location. The room was great, nice design and kitchen was well appointed, nice to have a dining room table!

The keycard to my room worked less than half of the time. I returned to the lobby on 5 separate occasions to have a new card made. Staggeringly, this seemed to be a frequent occurrence at this facility. No explanation was provided.

Room was great. Staff was great easy check in/out

Clean; updated. Not shopping friendly due to construction. Great location if you're attending sports events in Seattle as the train station is right there.

We had a great time at this hotel. The room was spacious and clean, and the bedding was very comfortable—meeting Marriott’s usual standards. The location is also excellent, with easy access to the SkyTrain, making it simple to get to both the city centre and the airport.

Great location , close to several dining options and easy transportation if you don’t have a car, the complimentary breakfast was good. The property itself was new and clean, the room were spacious and modern with comfortable beds. I will definitely stay here again.

Easy to get to/from, clean and comfortable. Perfect location to access public transportation to downtown and UW!

I really liked that it is right next to the Sound Transit train station. You can easily explore Seattle from this hotel.

This hotel opened up a few months ago and is very nice. It’s a 5 minute walk to the Northgate train station which is super convenient!! It’s in a nice newer area where they are building up a mall/shopping area and is nearby to Stanford’s which is a good restaurant. It’s also a 5 minute walk to the Seattle Kraken Community Iceplex which is pretty cool! The hotel feels safe, beds are very comfy, bathrooms are nice, we had our own little kitchenette area with a table and chairs, and most importantly it was clean. We also had continental breakfast which was pretty yummy and convenient, and the price for our stay was decent, especially when you compare it to older hotels in downtown Seattle in not the safest areas. I’ve read reviews for other hotels where there were homeless people nearby who had some mental health issues and it made people uncomfortable, but that was not the case for this area or this hotel. If the hotel management reads this; please add more fruit options to the continental breakfast besides tiny baby apples :) and have an ice machine on every floor. Overall; hotel was very nice, new, clean, and we loved that there was a continental breakfast and it was so close to the train station. We will stay here again when we come back to Seattle!

Excellent location to the train which took us right into Seattle

Charging for parking when there is literally nothing yet open immediately adjacent is a little too much. But the property is convenient, clean, staff was great and the breakfast was fantastic. Very convenient to Northwest Hospital.

Walk to light rail

Very clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast and great location

So noisy. I complained because I was right next to train line. Instead of switching me to the quiet side of the hotel they gave me a sound machine - it didn’t help. Breakfast wasn’t great either. Microwaved eggs are the worst. Coffee was good though.

Finally a place that was quiet and clean. The breakfast was great too!

The rooms were fantastic! But the breakfast and eating area were in need of help. The food was cold or not replenished. Clean plates and silverware were in big demand. Seems as though the staff was very short. It was Sunday, Mother’s Day and a big baseball game. Maybe staffing should be a priority on these big days.

Nice hotel with clean rooms and comfy beds. There were some maintenance issues in the room that needed to be fixed. (A/C was not working) but they fixed it in a timely manner.

Rooms were nice, spacious and clean. The link railway right outside was noisy. Staff was very nice but they needed more help at breakfast. They kept running out of coffee and food.
