We are considering boston boutique hotels various rentals in the Seattle area, hopefully where we don't need a car the entire time, just when we do day trips. I'm looking at some in Belltown as it looks like proximity to main tourist places is ideal. We are young retirees who love to dine out and also do ballroom dancing.
The Seattle bus system is still decent (though much better for tourists last month)... and it makes good sense to bus it up to 915 E. Pine rather boston boutique hotels than spend the money on renting a car and have to face the challenges of parking up near Broadway.
Belltown, in general, is great for its proximity to central Seattle but be sure to research any specific spot in-depth and in relation to nearby night clubs which might make walking or even being in certain areas uncomfortable on Friday boston boutique hotels Saturday nights .
A generic, suitable Belltown location would really save having to worry about transportation costs to many typical tourist attractions, but sooner or later it's gonna rain here, and with the loss of the free bus zone downtown, tourists may have to bite the bullet.
With a 2-week trip, maybe one of the pass options makes sense. I visit Seattle boston boutique hotels often, but not since the loss of the free bus downtown, and not for a long trip at any point, so I can't recommend the best one.
If you can find a condo on Capitol Hill in the vicinity of Century Ballroom, that is where I suggest you stay. From there it is an easy walk to downtown and the area is very well served by public transport.
I don't really consider Belltown a "neighborhood", if by that you mean tree-lined streets, local shops and cafes, etc. I would look instead at Capitol Hill (which is just 1-2 miles directly east from downtown) but an established residential neighborhood. Belltown is pretty boston boutique hotels much a "concrete jungle".
