The Warwick was a pleasant enough hotel but loud. We could hear all of the street noises from our room on the 7th floor. We did enjoy a spectacular view of the SpaceNeedle from our room.
The furniture in the lobby was a bit dated but functional. The doors are obscenely heavy. When there is a vacuum / wind tunnel from the ones across the lobby I did not have the physical strength to open them & had to rely on my husband or the doorman. That was annoying. They lock the sidewalk doors at 11 pm for security and you have to walk around through the garage to enter the building after hours. They should install a key card reader like on the rooms.
The indoor pool is very tiny but the Jacuzzi was relaxing. I saw the gym; they only have 1 stepper, stair master & elliptical machine but none was ever waiting. Simply walking the hills of the city was enough of a work out for me.
Housekeeping was spotty. The rooms & public areas were clean but one day they didn’t clean our room at all; they always forgot something – the correct number of towels (even when we hung them up to signal re-use0; to restock the in-room coffee; the bathmat. It was annoying.
The Ralph’s across the street is not the supermarket but a deli. The hot food was good but the prices aren’t inexpensive. If you walk down 5th street behind the hotel toward the Westlake Center there’s a Bartells Drug store which sells almost everything except hot food that is available at Ralph’s for a lot less.
Breakfast was hard to come by at a reasonable price. You could of course get breakfast in the hotel at hotel prices. There’s a restaurant behind the hotel on 4th that serves breakfast but again it was expensive. Ralph’s hours cater to the business community. For a leisure traveler who wanted breakfast at 11 am the options seemed to be limited to Starbucks & other coffee houses or fast food. We did enjoy great pastry at Top Pot on 5th in front of the hotel.
