The Paramount Hotel is a fine base within Seattle, perfect position between tourist Seattle and Capitol Hill. We stayed in a top floor corner room which had a great sightline down Pine St. The room itself was standard hotel fair, dresser and a desk, comfortable bed, and the room was quiet. You won't find anything contemporary within, so don't expect it. The only thing that knocks this from 5 stars is lack of pleasant service besides the concierge, and they take away water and coffee way too early.
