Well done, clear and informative video! I will be coming in January, 2025 and I ordered a "senior" orca card this morning. Will be staying at the Grand Hyatt. Nice to see how close it is to Westlake Center.
Thank you so much. I’m thinking about going there for a day trip just for market and breakfast, lunch and will catch the plane back very helpful for me.
Thanks for the great info, heading to Seattle in a few months for a cruise, are there any Taxi ranks near to the Westlake centre ? our Hotel is near the space needle. I know we could use the Monorail and walk to the Hotel but just looking for another option. Is there access to the Westlake Centre from the Train exits?
We're coming to Seattle the week of July 4th. Our hotel is near the University of Washington. Since our flight arrives at 8:00 p.m., I assume it will be 9:30 or so before we get to our hotel. Is that area of town okay for walking at night? (It's a short walk to our hotel). What would a taxi cost if light rail trains are behind? I saw another video of yours saying Light Rail wasn't as safe as it used to be....We can't avoid riding at night. Thank you!
Yes! Once you get up to the mezzanine at Westlake (see @9:18 in the video) look for signs for the Monorail! There will be an elevator right there. Ride it up past street level. If you got an Orca card, you can use it there. Otherwise, you can buy tickets up there.
Hi. Were coming to seattle 1st week of October. Our hotel is in Days inn Wyndhamm. We will arrived in seattle midnight 11:30pm. Is any taxis or bus still there at midnight? Thankyou.
Hi there, thank you for your great video on getting to downtown Seattle. Do you have an approximate cost of taking Uber and also a taxi for that trip? Thanks, Rob and Sandra 😊😊
@@robinnes1425 yes. Depends on the day. Taxi has a fix rate of $45 to downtown for now 2024. Uber can be around $70 to $120 depending on the time during the day
How would you get to Hotel Andra Seattle ?? Thanks for the vdo! Very helpful !! Would it be challenging with big luggages ? Not sure if there will be enough space esp during busy hours ?
@@humeston258 it’s super close. The same way you are going to grand Hyatt hotel. Which paramount hotel is across the street from Hyatt. Like two blocks away
It’s probably depending on how fast you walk. Can be at least 20 minutes. I would take a quick on Uber from the station. Won’t cost much. If you arrive during the day and dont have many luggage’s and not raining. It is quite a nice walk
Should we buy an ORCA card upon arrival at the Light Rail Station? (Rather than just get a one-way ticket?) We won't have our car while we're visiting and we'll be going to a Mariners game one day and into downtown another. Better value? Thanks!
Hi bro, kalo kita naek light train dan turun di westlake, kalo mau ke hotel crowne plaza atau hilton seattle (beda blok saja) tp Lumayan jauh dr westlake, kita bisa pesan uber dr titik kita keluar dr underground? Atau ada spot pick up khusus utk uber? Thank you
@@foodloverasian143 woke so tidak ada spot khusus utk ride share yah..setelah di survei harga yg paling oke dan proper hotel ya crowne plaza dan hilton seattle. Thx a lot bro sukses selalu youtube channel nya
the link train is a quarter hour hike from the Delta desk. About a half hour hike from the international arrivals area. Atlanta is far better. It is at one end of the airport. Chicago is in the middle of the terminal. both are are far better than Seattle. Portland is at the end of the baggage claim area. A whole lot better than Seattle. San Francuisco has two different stops. Seattle is the worst connection by far. Seattle has a single bus that goes to Bellevue every half hour. It is right at the international arrivals area.
Love visiting cities where you can take public transit from the airport, it lets me spend more money on the actual visit!
@@raph485 very true and super convenient
Excellent video. We will be flying into Seattle prior to going on a cruise and this video was really useful.
Very helpful! I'm coming next week to visit my new grandbaby, so I will try the Link Light Rail!
@@laurahoeftit’s easy and convenient
Saving this for my Aug trip to Seattle! Great info!

Well if you are in u district area. It is rather safer to walk around that time. I think you are ok unless you are in downtown
Thank you!
😂🎉w😂.....@@foodloverasian143
👍🏻 very useful!
Thank you. Glad to hear that
I swear there is a way to get to an elevator straight to the monorail from the mezzanine of the Westlake Lightrail station?
@@daveweiss5647 yes there is
@@foodloverasian143 I thought so, thanks for the reply!

@@aselasel29 yes I would prefer taking taxis at that time and they have a flat rate

How would you get to Hotel Andra Seattle ??
Thanks for the vdo! Very helpful !!
Would it be challenging with big luggages ? Not sure if there will be enough space esp during busy hours ?
@@trishdhanyaphasit4712 it would be quite a walk and can be less safe if during evenings. I won’t recommend it
i can buy ticket online too right? 😮
@@roce8485 yes. But it is easy to just buy the ticket at the machine
How would I get to the Paramount Hotel that’s on Pine Street?
@@humeston258 it’s super close. The same way you are going to grand Hyatt hotel. Which paramount hotel is across the street from Hyatt. Like two blocks away
Terima kasih, very informative video! Is it safe to stay around westlake area?
It’s some what safe. Just do not go to the 3rd avenue area. Otherwise the main big hotels area are ok to stay at
How far from west lake station is the Seattle Marriott waterfront? And is it walking distance?
It’s probably depending on how fast you walk. Can be at least 20 minutes. I would take a quick on Uber from the station. Won’t cost much. If you arrive during the day and dont have many luggage’s and not raining. It is quite a nice walk
Should we buy an ORCA card upon arrival at the Light Rail Station? (Rather than just get a one-way ticket?) We won't have our car while we're visiting and we'll be going to a Mariners game one day and into downtown another. Better value? Thanks!
Yes. I think buying orca card would be easier and deposit some money in it so you can avoid the hassle of buying the ticket each time
Thank you!
Gracias!!!!

Hi bro, kalo kita naek light train dan turun di westlake, kalo mau ke hotel crowne plaza atau hilton seattle (beda blok saja) tp
Lumayan jauh dr westlake, kita bisa pesan uber dr titik kita keluar dr underground? Atau ada spot pick up khusus utk uber? Thank you
Sebenarnya tidak terlalu Jauh ke crown plaza. But bisa pesen uber dari titik main entrance. Tidak Ada pick up khusus

I was here last time in 2003. 20 years ago. Before that railway.
@@radikusmanov7574 yes it is expanding

They made that train hard to use. Why bother if they aren't going to make it useful?
Curious what part was hard?
I can't take you seriously with that name
