My Review by sandyp565230894 on 6/19/2016 via Citysearch
I?d like to start out by saying some good things about Pensione Nichols B&B. The location is great, it?s a block from Pikes Place Market. The owner was very friendly and the price was reasonable compared to other hotels in the…

Beware the Lysol! by Georgeads on 4/24/2012 via Citysearch
They want you out early, the smell of someone dumping a bottle of lysol around the bathroom at 8:30am on Saturday and Sunday was like being gassed by ammonia. The closet was dusty, and had some exposed air ducting with dirt like someone…

GETS A BIG 10 by TexasX on 10/22/2009 via Citysearch
Location, breakfast, staff, parking and view were GREAT.\r Stayed 3 days and only used transportation once and that was to bring the el back from the Space Needle at night. Right above Pikes Market, walked to the aquarium, Post Alley…

My kind of place by traveler1852 on 12/7/2007 via Citysearch
Maybe not for everyone, but I?m hooked? Another reviewer is doing more than kidding you! I have been staying at Pensione Nichols for years and the carpet has NEVER EVER been dirty or smelly. Honestly, just yesterday morning I walked…

not what it's cracked up to be... by seeker111 on 11/27/2007 via Citysearch
I was a bit hesitant when booking this hotel but after reading all of the reviews, I decided to give it a try. Are you kidding me?I have traveled extensively throughout Europe and have never came upon such a worn out, dirty place like…

Nothing More Seattle Than "The Pensione" by spapeg on 5/4/2007 via Citysearch
Wow, I stayed in the suite and didn't want to go home. I have stayed in many hotels in seattle and there is not one that has the real seattle feel like this one. All of the other hotels I have stayed felt so corporate I could have been…

Amazing location, cool old building and great customer service! by hsmith38 on 4/25/2007 via Citysearch
We stayed here in the summer, had a room above 1st St., slept with the windows open and were never bothered by noise of any sort. It IS a city venue. It's not completely quiet. The street was busy during the day but drops off by 75% when…

They are very customer service oriented and what a wonderful atmosphere by lavonprice on 4/23/2007 via Citysearch
We have traveled all over the world and have stayed at many styles of B & Bs and the Pensione is one of the most charming we have encountered. It is very European in style and has one of the best views of Elliott Bay in Seattle. If you…

Best there is! by gordy1292 on 4/23/2007 via Citysearch
I have stayed at Pensione Nichols several times and always look forward to coming back. The couple of the grumpy reviews I have read about it on this site must be from people who have some other problems in their lives - or are used to…

Should be named the Prison Nichols by afolse on 9/7/2006 via Citysearch
Though the facade of the Pensione Nichols seems quaint and inviting, the actuality is that you are about to get a room that you do NOT want to stay in for more than five minutes. The room that we got had no windows, no air condition or…

Don't overlook this gem of a B&B! by Diedre R on 8/10/2005 via Insider Pages
I stayed at this bed and breakfast in October 2004 for my honeymoon. From our suite, we could look out the large windows and gaze at Elliot Bay. We also had a good view of a corner of Pike Place Market, where we could see merchants early…

Pensione Near the Market by Suzanne S. on 7/14/2005 via Judy's Book
I have had friends and colleagues stay here. Sweet place in a great location near the Pike Place Market and about 12 blocks from the stadium (20 minute walk).Another spot you might look into is the Ace Hotel. It is in Belltown.

a gem by earleebird on 7/6/2004 via Citysearch
My wedding party stayed at the Pensione for almost a week. The staff was very accomodating. The surroundings were comfortable and the views breathtaking. It reminded me of several places I've stayed while in Europe. The rates were great…

Sleepless in Seattle by dkeyess on 7/2/2003 via Citysearch
This is not a modern hotel. Very steep stairs to negotiate. Shared bathrooms, one phone line, no desk in room. The furniture is "antique"... old and broken down (mattress had a hole in the middle of it). Lighting was non-existant due…

Dog Friendly by chicory on 9/3/2002 via Citysearch
This has become my home away from home when in Seattle. The location is great and my dog is also welcome. I travel here on business, but would not say that it caters to business travelers.

Very spacious, great view by apricot on 7/25/2002 via Citysearch
My husband and I stayed at this B&B for two nights after spending over a week in Alaska and before going home to the East Coast. It was wonderful! We had a suit with a balcony and great view. We cooked dinner one night with fresh food…

wonderful by seattle_dorothy on 6/2/2002 via Citysearch
This is the perfect hotel for travelers who are looking for a great view, a great location, great service and relaxing surroundings. The decor is unique and charming. but ensure you get a room either at the front or the back of the hotel.…
