This was the first time I'd stayed at the Camlin. It is had become part of our timeshare (Worldmark). I thought it would be a nice location after picking some out of staters from the airport. It's close to everything "Seattle". It is very upscale in that old Hollywood money type way. Not the new upscale stuff you can find anywhere. Everything from service to being spotless, it was a great idea I will do again soon. My only complaint is the parking. It's parking is not enclosed and you can't park your own car. However you can see it right beside the hotel, surrounded by a wire fence. While it might not fit in with the hotel motif, they need to build an enclosed garage.

I had a Fantastic time at this resort. The concierge was very courteous and the rooms were remarkably clean. I saved money on my trip at TIMESHAREWATCH DotCOM where I was able to book a rental with a Timeshare owner for extremely cheap.

I was there for a week in 1999 and the service was OK. They still had a restauraunt at that time with a free breakfast included. No afternoon meals. Reasonable rates - just under $ 100/day. On the NE edge of DT Seattle across the street from the railway and next door was a car rental place. At that time they were just starting to update the hotel.

We could walk everywhere! Great location! Staff very friendly. No hot water for showers 3 out of 6 days. No AC. Would definitely return.

We stayed in a studio which was very clean and the staff was delightful. We were able to open all of the windows in the studio for fresh spring air. The only downside was the bathroom didn't have a fan and it caused the room to be very damp. The Cloud Room on the top floor was very nice and private to spend a moment alone with those you love.

This historic hotel has been tastevully remodeled and updated with respect paid to its many years of history. After reading the previous reviews, I was a bit worried, but found it to be simply a delightful place to stay, and a perfect location for seeing sll the highlights of downtown Seattle. It's right across from the Parmount Theater and RuthChris' Steak House. Walk to most places in the district. The beds were very comfortable, and the heat was easily regulated in our studio courtyard room.

I liked the service and all that "good" stuff, BUT...the hotel had the creepiest feel to it. The color scheme and the dim lighting gave it such a spooky feeling. Maybe I'm just easy to scare, but I went to the basement to buy an ice cream from the vending machine and it was so still, quiet and spooky, it really felt like someone was down there with me even though I knew there wasn't.

Violation - Hypocrisy If the staff was helpful and friendly then the service category would be a 4 or 5 not a 2. Air conditiong has nothing to do with location, cleanliness,service, or value. Air conditioning is a perk. And just to double check you're from Reno complaining about heat in Seattle? I personally enjoyed my stay.

We spent the first night of our honeymoon in the Camlin March 18, 1950 during spring break at the U of W and we sure didn't pay much attention to the service, cleanliness, location or value. The next morning, we headed for the old Black Ball terminal and boarded a ferry for Victoria. I also remember the Camlin as the site of several stag parties during my college days and the place where I met my first employer after finishing at the U of W. We have thought betimes about revisiting the Camlin before we go gentle into that good night, but never have. There may still be time for a review at that as we are frequent visitors to Seattle.
