NUNCA LOS SUBESTIMEN cuando les dicen que el ruido del bar que está debajo del hotel puede ser molesto… yo lo hice y estoy muy arrepentida pero ellos lo advirtieron. Es un Bar en donde tocan ROCK PESADO Y MUY RUIDOSO!! pero las instalaciones están impecables me gustó el hotel

Not cheap, but if you want to treat yourself when attending a show at either venue on site, the rooms are lovely and it's really convenient.

Fantastic venue! I do wish there was a way for hotel guests to get into their concert without going outside and waiting in line - it’s boutique with only 13 rooms - you’d think they could accommodate for that - especially when it’s cold or the weather is ridiculous like it was during the Dessa concert 😅But that said, it was beautiful, the furnishings were nice - the bathroom sink fixtures were loose, pretty, but need to be tightened so easier to use. Everyone was super helpful and responsive! Great place at a GREAT price! So happy we got in.

Thank you so much for staying & for this lovely review. We would love to be able to grant hotel guests special access but everyone must go through security regardless. Thank you for your understanding & we'll also fix those loose fixtures right up. Much appreciated & hope to see you again soon.

We loved our stay at Hotel Crocodile. We went to a show at The Moore and it was a short walk back to the hotel. With the venue below, it was slightly loud, but not overwhelming and was over by 11:30. We were given plenty of notice though and expected a lively atmosphere. We’ll definitely stay again next time we catch a show there or in the vicinity.

We had a great stay! Accessing the property was easy and we were pleasantly surprised to find that we had a massive corner room. The room was spotless and the bed was SO comfortable. We were walking distance to so many great bars and restaurants, as well as the concert venue for the show we were attending. I will say, this hotel is definitely more suitable for a younger audience as there are stairs to get to the rooms, and the hotel is situated above a live music venue/club and you can hear the music in your room at night. We didn’t mind one bit and the provided earplugs were great. We will definitely be back!

We came to Seattle to attend a concert at the Crocodile and decided to book the Crocodile Hotel for convenience. We were pleasantly surprised by the classiness, cleanliness, and clever management of this property. We had an excellent and enjoyable stay. While it is set up so that no human interface is needed, the people we ran into while there were super friendly and helpful. The hotel and our room were spotless, uniquely decorated and just perfect amenities. Great value and great location. They are also very up-front about potential noise from their music venues, but we found our stay to be perfect in every way. Bravo Crocodile!

The Croc has style
If it isn’t painfully clear in the description, the hotel rooms are 2nd floor over the theater. So if a show is playing, you are going to hear it. However it shuts down by 11:00pm and all is quiet. Our room was very nice, very clean, spacious and comfortable. This is not your plain vanilla hotel, the croc has style you will remember.
