Public Transit from the Airport

Light Rail: The Central Link Light Rail station will be located near the northeast corner of the main airport parking garage, directly connecting pedestrians to the airport ticketing concourse and SeaTac's City Center. The light rail offers a 36-minute ride from the airport to Downtown Seattle.

Get off at the Pioneer Square station. The hotel is 7 blocks from the station (0.4 miles) and the walk includes a steep hill, so plan to take a bus, a cab, or be out of breath by the time you get to the hotel. The easiest transit connection is to walk up Third to Marion, and take the #12 up the hill. It's a free ride till 7 p.m. Trolley stops across the street (6th Ave) from the hotel.

Fare: <$3 for light rail
