About Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel
Hotel Five at 2200 5th Ave puts you in central Belltown at a mid-range rate, within walking distance of Pike Place Market and Seattle Center. It is a clean, design-forward stay best suited to solo travelers and couples who plan to eat and drink out. Skip it if amenities like a pool, spa, or on-site dining are part of your criteria.
Quick Verdict
Hotel Five is a solid mid-range pick on the northern edge of Belltown, where 5th Avenue puts you within a 10-minute walk of Pike Place Market, the Seattle Center, and the core of downtown without the premium rate that comes with addresses closer to the waterfront. If your priority is a clean, well-run room at a fair price in a genuinely central location, this is one of the better options in its tier. If you need full-service amenities, a spa, or a signature restaurant, look elsewhere.
The Location Case
The address at 2200 5th Ave is the main reason to book here. You are close enough to downtown Seattle to walk almost everywhere that matters — Pike Place, Seattle Center, the Space Needle, Belltown's bar and restaurant strip — without paying the waterfront or South Lake Union premium. For value-seekers, that geography is the product. The Staypineapple brand built its model around compact, design-forward rooms in high-demand urban locations, and the 5th Avenue site delivers on that brief. The tradeoff is that Hotel Five is not a destination hotel. There is no pool, no full spa, and no on-site restaurant of note. You are paying for location and room quality, not amenities depth.
Who Should Book
Book Hotel Five if you are a solo traveler or couple prioritizing central access and a stylish room over hotel amenities. It works well for short business trips or weekend city breaks where you plan to eat and drink outside the hotel rather than in it. For families needing extra space, or for guests who want a pool, a spa, or room service as part of the experience, the rate-to-amenity calculus shifts toward properties like the Four Seasons Hotel Seattle or the Fairmont Olympic Hotel. For an independent hotel with more character in a neighbourhood setting, consider the Hotel Sorrento on First Hill or Hotel Ballard if you want to base yourself in a more residential part of the city. The Ace Hotel Seattle is a direct stylistic competitor at a similar price point, also in Belltown, and is worth comparing rates before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do loyalty programs work at Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel?
Staypineapple runs its own direct-booking loyalty perks rather than participating in major third-party programs like Marriott Bonvoy or Hilton Honors. Booking direct at 2200 5th Ave through Staypineapple's own platform is the clearest path to any repeat-guest benefits. If you depend on points accumulation across a large hotel network, Hotel Five is not the right fit. For points stackers, Hotel 1000 (part of Marriott's Autograph Collection) gives you more flexibility.
How is the pool and spa at Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel?
Hotel Five is not a full-amenity property — it does not position itself around pool or spa facilities. If those are priorities for your stay in Seattle, you will find better options at Lotte Hotel Seattle or the Four Seasons, both of which have dedicated wellness facilities. Hotel Five earns its keep on location and room quality, not resort-style amenities.
How is the dining at Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel?
Hotel Five does not operate a full-service restaurant on-site, which is a deliberate trade-off for a property at this price point in Belltown. The upside is that you are within a short walk of Pike Place Market and a dense concentration of Seattle restaurants. Think of the hotel as a well-located base rather than a dining destination — if in-hotel dining matters, look at Thompson Seattle instead.
Which room category is best at Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel?
For solo travelers or couples, the standard king rooms at Hotel Five deliver the style-to-price ratio that makes this property worth booking. Upgrading to a larger category makes sense if you are staying more than two nights and want workspace comfort. Avoid over-rooming here — the brand's strength is in its core offering, not suite-level upgrades that would push you into Four Seasons or Lotte price territory.
What is check-in like at Hotel Five - A Staypineapple Hotel?
The Staypineapple brand is known for a streamlined, low-friction check-in process that suits business and independent travelers well. Expect a direct, efficient front desk experience rather than an elaborate concierge-heavy arrival. If you are arriving late or early, contacting the property in advance through Staypineapple's direct booking channel is advisable, as specific hour-by-hour flexibility is not publicly confirmed.

Best for independent travellers who want a quiet, walkable base rather than a full-service property. If you need 24-hour service or on-demand dining, look elsewhere — but for a low-fuss Seattle stay with easy access to restaurants and transit, this format delivers.
- Ace Hotel SeattleAce Hotel Seattle is a design-forward Belltown property that works best for creative travellers who want neighbourhood atmosphere over luxury amenities. It lacks a major loyalty program, so points-chasers should look elsewhere. Booking is easy most of the year, but reserve three to four weeks out for summer weekends and event periods.
