The Pike Place market was born more than 100 years ago on August 17, 1907. It was created by eight farmers who, outraged by the high price at which the onions they grew were sold, decided to start selling their own produce directly to customers. Over the years, the market grew to become a Seattle landmark.
In its more than 36,000 square metres of surface area you will find around fifteen multi-storey buildings housing more than 600 stalls and premises. Pike Place sells everything from the freshest fish to the most delicious fruit, from bakeries to ice-cream parlors, pastry shops to candy stores. Here are the best hotels in Pike Place Market.
To be honest, I prefer Booking.com when choosing hotels. It’s proven safe, user-friendly, and provides affordable prices.

Tips
- At the center of downtown Seattle is the famous Pike Place Market. It’s best to pick lodging that’s as near to the place as possible.
- Hip clubs and fantastic restaurants are available in Pike Place and neighboring areas northwest called Belltown. There is a shopping area downtown but has limited restaurants.
- Head northeast if you want to shop. The Pacific Place Mall resides there along with other boutique and luxury shops. It’s 5 minutes away from Pike Place Market.
- To the south is the Pioneer Square. Numerous sports bars and clubs may be found there. The International District is located nearby, as well as the Mariners, Sounders, and Seahawks stadiums. It’s a short walking distance from the market.
- There’s a waterfront near Pike Place Market and downtown, but it is separated by a closed freeway. It’s a bit of a hassle to get there, so you might want to stick to the downtown area.
- The most ideal hotel for families staying at Pike Place is the Four Seasons.
