La Residence Suite Hotel

This is an older apartment building that has been turned into a hotel. It is family run and although it’s older they have done some really nice touches to bring it up to date & modern. Nice furniture & accessories in our room & throughout the hotel. We stayed in a one bedroom which would be considered an apartment. Kitchen fully equipped & the king bed, bedding etc was very comfortable. Rooms are very spacious and it was very clean. Excellent location, all walkable, if wanting to shop, dine or catch a movie around the Bellevue Square area. The continental breakfast bar which was included with our stay was great!

Location location location. Conveniently located right in front of the Bellevue square which also can give you access to Lincoln square etc. Bellevue downtown park is only about a block away. We absolutely loved the location. The building itself is old, some has been renovated but the building, room etc were very clean. Almost spotless in some areas. What we noticed was at most hotels ( even newer ones ) under the couch was always a spot that never get cleaned.. but when my toddler dropped her toy, i had to grab them under the couch and I can tell you it was spotless.. great job! Front desk ladies ( when checking in and checking out ) were very friendly and welcoming. The housekeeper in the morning was also a sweet lady. Kudos everyone! One thing we hated the most was the sliding doors.. the sliding doors in the bedroom are very squeky and hard to open/close. And also the sliding door in the kitchen is not working. It would not slide at all. Other than that, for the location alone, we would definitely be back!

This is a great hotel within easy walking distance of downtown Bellevue and Bellevue Square. Keep in mind that the front desk is only open from 7 AM to 9 PM so you need to check in during those hours. Of course once you’re checked in you can come and go as you please as there is a side door with room key entry. The hotel is very clean and quiet. I loved having the kitchen and the separate living room. This is great for couples who have one or two smaller children that don’t mind sleeping on the pull out sofa bed. The breakfast wasn’t anything special and I did not care for the coffee, but it was nice to have a small selection of granola bars, pastries, and some apples and bananas. The hotel staff were nice. This will be my preferred hotel in Bellevue from now on.

We really enjoyed staying at this apartment-style property. It is a bit older but everything was in good working condition and only minor signs of wear and tear. The king bed was super comfortable and we liked having the kitchen to cook our meals. They also offer a continental breakfast which was unexpected. We really appreciated that we could leave our 2 well-behaved dogs for a few hours to do some sight-seeing. The area around the hotel is beautiful - Bellevue is REALLY nice! There is a great park across the road, perfect for families. We watched a movie in the park one night. we drove into downtown Seattle, only about 15-20 minutes. Staff are very friendly and helpful and Peanut the cat welcomes you (usually sitting right on the front counter). More info on what/how to recycle would have been helpful but all in all, a great stay. We would definitely stay here again!
