Hotel 116, A Coast Hotel Bellevue Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Hotel 116, A Coast Hotel Bellevue, you immediately get the sense this is a place that knows its audience. The lobby has that comfortable, understated vibe — not trying too hard to impress, but clearly well-maintained. What struck me right away was how the staff seemed to recognize returning guests by name. Turns out there’s a reason for that — this three-star property has way more repeat visitors than most hotels I’ve stayed at, which honestly says something about getting the basics right.

Location & Neighborhood

The location on 116th Avenue Northeast is actually pretty smart if you know Bellevue. You’re close enough to downtown that getting to Lincoln Square or Bellevue Square takes maybe ten minutes by car, but far enough out that you’re not dealing with the worst of the traffic noise. I mean, couples seem to really get this — they’ve rated the location 8.7 out of 10, and I can see why. There’s something nice about being able to walk to decent restaurants without feeling like you’re in the thick of everything. Plus, having your own car here makes sense since parking is available right at the hotel.

The Room Experience

The rooms at Hotel 116 are what I’d call reliably comfortable — nothing flashy, but everything works the way it should. The beds are actually quite good (I’m picky about this), and the bathrooms are clean with decent water pressure. What I appreciated was the attention to small details — outlets where you need them, blackout curtains that actually block light, and air conditioning that doesn’t sound like a freight train. You know what? Sometimes the best thing about a hotel room is that nothing annoys you, and that’s exactly what you get here.

Practical Matters

Here’s where this place really shines — it just works without drama. Check-in was smooth, the WiFi actually functions properly throughout the building, and when I had a question about local restaurants, the front desk person had genuine recommendations rather than just handing me a generic brochure. The fact that so many guests come back tells you something about the service consistency. It’s not over-the-top hospitality, but it’s genuine and helpful when you need it.

Why Guests Love It

Honestly, Hotel 116 succeeds because it delivers on what most travelers actually want — a clean, comfortable place to stay without surprises or hassles. The location works particularly well for couples exploring the area, and having parking included removes one of those annoying travel logistics. Recent guests have rated the location 8.6 out of 10, which makes sense when you experience how easy it is to get around from here. It’s the kind of place you’d book again without overthinking it, which in the world of travel is actually pretty valuable.

• Heather from United States – 26 February 2025 (8/10)

  Bed was super comfortable staff was cool location was perfect

• Susan from United States – 13 February 2025 (7/10)

  Close proximity to medical facilities and partnered with a restaurant and coffee shop made it very convenient.
  
  What could be improved: The handicap room was farthest from entryway and lacked safety bar in tub and near toilet. Not sure wheelchair would fit into bathroom; very narrow. Also ice machine on ground floor missing. Machines available on other floors but with handicap walking disability it was too difficult.

• Mary from United States – 8 February 2025 (8/10)

  Location to hospital.
  
  What could be improved: Did not like that you can walk from the restaurant next door straight into where the rooms are. Did do even have to go through lobby. No security measures in place. No key card access to use the elevators.
  Parking limited if arriving at night.

• Jaffy from Canada – 27 January 2025 (7/10)

  Great location, very close to the medical centers and shops like Wholefoods and Trader joes. Pets are welcome which is the best part for us.

• Dorothy from United States – 6 October 2024 (7/10)

  So nice to be able to open a window, for fresh air and temperature. Happy for the microwave. Very good shower head. Bed was super comfortable and firm. Comfortable, clean lounge chair with foot stool.
  
  What could be improved: The room's lighting was poor. Helped a little to remove a lamp shade, but not enough. Room was smaller than expected but adequate and still had space for a long counter for a place to put things.
