Best hotel to stay in Seattle without a car and travel help?

MY sister and I are planning a trip and we are not sure when to go or where to stay, Ihave done some research, but I would like some info from the people who live there and have visited there..





Where is the best place to stay in Seattle,such as in walking distance or ride for cheap, and do I need a car? What types of trasportation is there around the hotels that are cheap.... Also, what are the best sites to see, that are the best places to go! What are the cheapest and less crowded months to go? (I know this is a lot to ask!!)Best hotel to stay in Seattle without a car and travel help?

Try this website for Seattle hotels.



If you are a tourist, I would not recommend staying in the U district, unless you really need a cheap place to stay. It's too far away from most of the major attractions. Hotels downtown also run specials in the off season, and you can stay at some pretty nice places for pretty cheap.



Seattle has a free ride bus zone through most of downtown. The bus routes are very extensive and easy to follow. Here's a link to help you: http://transit.metrokc.gov/tops/bus/area鈥?/a>



There is also the Monorail that takes you from the downtown shopping district to the seattle center (space needle).



I would say the best time to visit Seattle is September or October. We typically still have good weather (by Seattle standards) and the crowds have gone. Otherwise, we usually get a really nice week (sunny) in February and May.



If you are really on a budget, and up for a little adventure, the Green Tortiose Hostel is located right downtown, blocks from Pike Place Market and Shopping. http://www.greentortoise.net/
residence inn by marriott is a good hotel to stay at

Stay in the University District (U District) near the Univ of Washington or downtown. Off season, now through February, you can get a cheap hotel. Buses are very convenient to every part of King County, including all parts of the city of Seattle. Downtown is about 2 miles long, end to end. Go 4 miles and you have seen most of the important sites. If you rent a car for a few days, you can go to all places from Olympia to Mt St Helen, Tacoma, San Juan Islands to Victoria and Vancouver, BC. Sandy beach to the snowy mountain in 1 hour... or less.



U District has loads of culture and cheap eats, bars, dance clubs, museums ... and is only 10 minutes from downtown. You get a flavor of the real city - not the central city "fake" city only...live a little, learn a lot.
