We went on a couples trip in October. We traveled to Washington and met up with our friends from…read moreColorado and Tennessee. Our last two nights of our journey were spent in Seattle at the Shafer Baillie mansion. I would highly recommend staying here. The location was great for getting to downtown and all around. It is close to the Cap Hill neighborhood with shops and restaurants. There is plenty of street parking in the vicinity. The mansion itself is part of what was known as Millionaire's Row. It was built in 1914 and has been well cared for over the years. When we came back from one evening out, we all gathered in the Library and set up some charcuterie and wine to share from our travels. It was so cozy sitting all together and chatting about our adventures. The rooms are historic with modern conveniences. Our room was the Queen Ann Hill. We slept soundly in our comfortable 4 poster bed. There was a helpful step stool for me to climb up as I am vertically challenged. It has original pushbotton light switches. It had a beautiful full length mirror. There was a flatscreen TV, but we had so many wonderful activities we did not use it. The bathroom was updated but still fit with the historic look. There were two showerheads in the tiled shower. Breakfast was lovely. I, personally, have a great deal of food allergies. There was ample selection that I was able to enjoy just as much as anyone else. There were breads and pastries, jams and spreads, yogurt and fresh berries, and a hot breakfast dish. Hard boiled eggs were available as well as cheeses and meats. There was a coffee bar that was available all day that also had tea and cocoa. We sat at the long dining table enjoying each others company and conversation. We got to meet some of the other guests which added to the experience. If we find ourselves back in Seattle, this is where I will want to stay.

This place is not for…read moreeverybody - It is a hundred year old home filled with period furniture, and it's not all in new condition. The bathrooms are small and in come cases oddly configured, but that's what happens when a home is converted to a B&B. We had two rooms and found both to be clean and to have enough space for stowing clothes for a six-day stay. We didn't get a rental car this time, and found Seattle's public transportation quite adequate. There is a bus stop near the hotel and a rail station only about ten minutes walk or a cheap Lyft ride away. Given the parking situation everywhere in Seattle, we saved time, aggravation, and money. There are good bakeries and restaurants nearby (Kedai Makan Malaysian was a standout, and we enjoyed Bar Vacilando), and there is a Safeway a few blocks away. The Liberty Bar is also a destination for those who appreciate inventive cocktails. The immediate area around the inn is quiet at night, for a place in the center of a large city. Bottom line, we will be back. We could have had fancier amenities and an elevator in a modern but soulless place in another neighborhood, but prefer the character here. Note to those with allergies: they do have a cat and a dog here. Both are quiet and don't seem to go above the ground floor.

They were super friendly and helpful. They also cooked delicious breakfasts. We met David on our last day and he was super nice and welcoming. Centrally located at Capitol Hill. Near the train station and the bus. We walked late at night and never had an issue. Walking distance to lots of restaurants and the park. They gave us a list of restaurants and a map. CONS: The only issues I did have were that there were so many stairs. We personally did not mind it- my mom does walk slowly up and down stairs, but for someone else, this could be an issue. The bed was too firm to my liking, but other people might not mind it. Low water pressure in the bathroom. Overall, I would stay here again if I visited Seattle.

There is also a bowl of fresh fruit accessible at all times.

Ever since staying at a B&B in Napa, I ended searching for one in Seattle and stumbled upon Greenlake Guest House. I checked availability, what they offer and so forth and grew too love it and wanted to book our stay with them! Julie our host was so amazing! She was kind and attentive! When we arrived she gave us a tour of the house and showed us to our room! There is a community fridge with water and sodas as well as a Keurig for coffee or tea. There was a welcome basket and bottle of wine that was provided with our stay. Julie told us that we can use their contactless app to put in our breakfast order or utilize the sheet that was provided. She told us that we can pick as little or as much as we wanted. I read great reviews on her homemade granola and definitely had to try it! After breakfast they would give you the sheet to choose breakfast for the next day. Everyday there's something different and everything that we had tried has been delicious! They bake fresh cookies everyday and you have the option to request for them on the menu and if you need your room cleaned. Julie and her staff were all so amazing to us during our stay! We really enjoyed our time here and appreciate their hospitality! Will definitely stay again whenever we visit again!

It might have the smallest amount of rooms compared to other B&B inns on the hill but It's a great place to stay. Linda makes you feel like family and she and Benny take care of even the smallest details to make your stay pleasant. Heck when we met her she was making sure a girl who was looking at colleges to attend knew how to get to the B&B and if she needed to contact anyone to let them know she arrived safely to the B&B. It's is close shopping, restaurants and nightlife on the hill that you can walk around to all of it. I highly recommend staying there.

Upon arrival, we head into our taxi into the lovely area of Seattle that is Capitol Hill. Lynda, the owner of this beautiful B&B, greets us warmly at this beautiful old Victorian-style home that's been in her family for decades upon decades. The hubby and I particularly like staying at B&Bs because they tend to be cleaner (after all, what person would let their OWN house go into a state of disrepair), and we actually like talking to the friendly owners and other guests. Admittedly, this place has furnishings that aren't exactly hip & modern. It lends itself to a bit more 'old-woman' chic. However, the furnishings are all old antique furniture that has been in her family for ages. Beautiful quality furniture that kind of takes you back in time. But what REALLY sets this place apart is Lynda herself. Lynda is a lovely woman...feels like your friendly aunt who wants nothing more than to chit chat at her dining table with you. Sure, she can be a bit overly-chatty, but like we said, we love a friendly B&B host. Lynda really made our stay lovely - even sent up a bottle of wine for us on our anniversary with a cute little note. Got to talk to Lynda about all kinds of wonderful and fascinating stuff (she lived in Mexico for 20 or so years when she went off to college, met a guy down there and married him!)...conversations were lovely and really made our trip all the more 'cozier'. Side note: Lynda has a large dog, Madeline, and a cat, Agnes (I believe). Agnes is apparently the meanest little cat...but she ignores you so just ignore her. Madeline is absolutely a doll...a big lovebug. But obviously...if you don't like pets and you don't like a chatty host, then this place may not be your place. But otherwise, head on over to this lovely B&B and let Lynda take care of you!

Both are in the heart of bustling Ballard Ave, where most of the restaurants, cafes, boutiques and bars are located. Ballard Inn is a small historic building, nicely repurposed to a hotel. Not all the rooms have a private bathroom; I phoned ahead to make sure we had our own! Our room had an exterior door directly to street access on Vernon. The room was nicely-appointed, clean & we felt safe. The cost included unlimited access to the beautiful Olympic Athletic Club, located across the street at the (substantially!) more expensive new Hotel Ballard. Our stay was Weds to Friday, thus the neighborhood was quiet yet it can get bustling during our famous Ballard Sunday Farmers Market, or Friday & Saturday nights when the bars get busy. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0d48cYvQUbCr6C2tPlU9rlbKQ
