AC Hotel by Marriott Seattle Bellevue/Downtown

Stylish Stays Steps from Bellevue’s Best Music Spots

Modern, European-inspired and just a short walk from venues like Meydenbauer Center and Bellevue City Hall, the AC Hotel by Marriott Seattle Bellevue/Downtown offers a polished, upscale vibe perfect for concert nights. With sleek, minimalist rooms and thoughtful touches like a coffee machine and mini-fridge in every room, it's a great base whether you're in town for a sold-out show or an indie set.

The hotel is just 12 miles from Sea-Tac Airport, making it convenient for out-of-towners. You'll be within easy reach of Bellevue Square for pre-show shopping or post-show bites.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and this hotel nails it. You're within walking distance of major venues like the Meydenbauer Center, so there's no need to worry about parking or rideshares. Rooms are well insulated, so even after a high-energy night, you'll have a quiet place to recharge.

Late 4:00 PM check-in and a generous 12:00 PM check-out give you flexibility to enjoy your night without stressing about early mornings. Plus, the downtown setting means easy access to late-night eats and transit options.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to stay close to the action
• Solo travelers catching a must-see tour stop
• Couples making a romantic concert weekend
• Fans seeking a quieter space to relax post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want style and convenience

Food and Drink Options

The AC Kitchen serves up a European-style breakfast—perfect for those recovering from a late night. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the on-site AC Lounge offers snacks and cocktails in the evening, and you're just a short walk from plenty of late-night dining options around Bellevue Square and downtown.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel keeps things low-key, the AC Lounge is a great spot to grab a craft cocktail before or after your show. Step outside and you're within blocks of Bellevue’s popular bars, lounges, and music-friendly hangouts.

What People Say

Areas for Improvement
