Art-filled accommodations in downtown Seattle
The Hotel Max combines art and stylish boutique comfort, all within walking distance of Seattle's most famous attractions. Almost 400 works by 39 Seattle artists and photographers decorate rooms and public spaces. The Hotel Max takes advantage of its art niche to occasionally offer packages and deals tied to exhibits at the nearby Seattle Art Museum. The Hotel Max's restaurant, Redfin, focuses on Japanese specialties and serves breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner.Highlights
- Art work by local artists and photographers on display in the lobby, hallways and guest rooms
- Aveda-brand bathroom amenities
- Close to well-known Seattle restaurants, including Wild Ginger
- Pet friendly (fees apply)
Rooms
Not surprisingly, each room at the Hotel Max sports an arty title. Solo art has a double bed and teak desk. Art of two beds rooms boast two double beds. Queen of art rooms sport a queen bed and artist king has king-size beds. Soothing tones of sage, charcoal gray and vegetal oranges decorate each room. All rooms have high thread-count linens and duvets, robes, coffee makers with Organa coffee and Steven Smith tea, Aveda bath amenities, a menu of pillow choices and a menu of spiritual inspiration suitable for almost any belief system.
Features
An art-filled lobby, guest rooms and hallways underscore the Hotel Max's dedication to art and Seattle-area artists and photographers. If the point is to create a serene environment, the Hotel Max follows up admirably with rooms done in calming hues. In-room tea accompanies in-room coffee and a spiritual menu promises inspiration for almost any faith or belief system. A whimsical "you got it" button on the telephone links guests with hotel services.

ok for location, nothing special
The room was fine, good location inside the property. Staff was friendly enoough, but nothing special. It was centrally located in the city, which was a good thing. I think you can do better for the money.

Sopisticated, urban vibe
The Hotel Max is beautifully situated -- just 3 blocks from the Convention Center and about 6 blocks from the famous Seattle marketplace. The decor is chic and contemporary, with a dramatic, yet cozy, black and red lobby. Original artwork hangs in each room and throughout the hotel. The hotel's restaurant served delicious breakfasts with friendly, chatty service. The room was VERY small, as was the bathroom, but decorated to maximize the limited footage. Some unique offerings in the room included a pillow menu (from which you could select your favorite pillow style), a spiritual menu (for choosing the spiritual/religious reading you most prefer.), and most surprising -- a pleasure kit in the mini-bar (Yes. That kind of pleasure). Families traveling with children may want to hide the pleasure kit away before having the kids explore the drawers... All in all, the Hotel Max was an original, convenient hotel experience.

Great locale, hip ambiance, small rooms
The location of Hotel Max is terrific, with some of the best dining options walkable from the hotel, and close proximity to tourist spots like the Space Needle and Pike's market, etc. The hotel staff was friendly. We had a very nice room the first night, but when we came back, they gave us a room that was literally the size of a college dorm, with bathroom to match. There is no restaurant or bar on premise, but the sushi place right next door plays a wonderful neighbor, with outside tables.

Perfect Location
We are relocating to Seattle and stayed at this hotel while apartment hunting. It is classy without being pretentious. It was in the perfect spot for us to walk to pretty much everything we needed. We did rent a car and utilized the valet service, which was pricey but worth it if you've ever tried to park in the city. There are plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance and Pike's Place market is just a few blocks away. The Hotel was funky and modern. The shower was tiny, but I believe that the king rooms have tubs, which would be better. The bed was divine and our view was gorgeous. We would definitely stay here again.

Not Applicable
If you plan on just staying downtown during your visit, ditch the rental car and find another mode of transportaion (cab, etc.) to the hotel from the airport. There is plenty to do within walking distance and public transportation goes to the major tourist sites within the city.

Max is hip and cool
Hotel Max is stunning visually and located near all major seattle attractions. The atmosphere of max is hip and cool. In our late fifties. perhaps we were a bit old, but the staff makes you feel young. Seattle is a noisy city and our 10th floor room was not immune from that city noise so don't expect country peace and quiet. Cool spot.
