Great historic place to stay. Panoramic views in corner suite Chloe at the front desk was incredible, we had a small hiccup and it was handled with such grace.
I'd come back again not because of the room but because of the hospitality from Chloe!

Beautiful Historic boutique Hotel 🏨
Beautiful boutique, historic hotel, right in downtown Seattle! The building is over 100 years old and has an old world charm with lots of mahogany, beautiful tile floors, and carpet. The rooms are spacious and the service is excellent!

Perfect stay
Front desk staff were very friendly. They helped with our luggage even though we did ask. Rooms were clean, beds comfortable. This is an older hotel but very, very well kept up. Restaurant food was a bit expensive but I guess that’s expected at any hotel.

Everything about our stay was great. The food and cocktails were amazing. The only issue with our stay was the elevator broke on our last 2 days.

A highly recommend Hotel Sorrento! From check in to meals to bed comfort and check out this hotel is such a gem. The outdoor dining feels like a little oasis with great food and friendly service. The staff, across the board went above and beyond and the beds are beyond comfortable.

Great old hotel
We were pleasantly surprised when we pulled up to this classic hotel amidst the urban landscape of Seattle! Loved the old hotel charm - and Stella’s restaurant and bar offered great end to our day. The focaccia bread was yes! Enjoyed several appetizers including tasty (but small) crab cakes and oysters. Our room and bed was comfy cozy.

Hope to return
It was an amazing experience staying in this hotel. I complained that the room smelled musty and only expected a change in room but they upgraded me to a better room without charging extra. Also, the hotel is walking distance of many attractions and the Bus Ride stops very close to the hotel. The breakfast at the restaurant was excellent.
I definitely want to return to this hotel!!

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful hotel. The historical yet contemporary vibe made it feel special and unique. The daily rug in the elevator was our fave! The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, and our room was lovely. Highly recommend—and we’ll definitely be back!

Nice Hotel
Large room, Very clean bathroom and throughout. Beds softer than I like, but still OK. Friendly staff. Very good and reasonably priced breakfast.
Surprised to see individual plastic tubes of soap, conditioner, and lotion. Use recyclables guys.
Would stay here again.
