We had a suite that was on the alley - 2nd floor. Garbage trucks, grease retrieval truck, garbage (bottles) being dumped all night. It was not a great night’s sleep.

Lovely Heritage Hotel in Seattle
Love the atmosphere of this Heritage Hotel in Seattle. Room was spacious, well-equipped, and bed very comfortable (although, wish it had a fitted bottom sheet). Staff were personable, professional and exceptionally helpful.

Such a cute hotel with lots of charm. My husband had knee replacement surgery and the hotel was a hop skip and a jump to the surgery center. Want to go back for real vacation stay.

Wonderful experience. My husband had surgery at Virginia Mason Hospital which is one block away from the Sorrento. The staff was super, restaurant a delight and the valet parking made life easy. Highly recommend the hotel if you’re looking to minimize stress for medical visits. Also just a wonderful hotel for any occasion.

Old school property that doesn't feel like no one has touched it in the past 20 years. Great ambiance, much quieter and cleaner than other hotel properties on the other side of the freeway, yet still very walkable. Gem.
