Seattle hotels with a cruise shuttle

A hotel shuttle matters most if you sail from Pier 91, which no hotel is within walking distance of and no public transit serves. These are the hotels whose own websites say they run, sell or arrange a ride to the cruise terminals, as their sites read on 27 October 2026. Every one covers both piers.

Is there a free cruise shuttle?

Not from any hotel we checked. Several travel sites list free or cheap shuttles at Seattle hotels. When we went to those hotels' own websites, the ones we could read either charged for the ride or didn't mention one, so we haven't listed them. If a hotel tells you its shuttle is free, ask it to confirm that when you book.

The shuttles, hotel by hotel

The Mediterranean Inn, Lower Queen Anne. $10 a person to Pier 66 or Pier 91, from the hotel to the pier. You sign up at check-in, and the hotel doesn't publish pick-up times. It is 10 minutes from Pier 91 by car.

The Belltown Inn, Belltown. $10 a person to either pier, booked at check-in. For the day you get off the ship it sells a pier-to-airport ride at flat rates, $78 for one to three people and $105 for four to six.

The Mayflower Park Hotel, downtown. $15 a guest for the 2026 season, though the FAQ on the same page still says 2025. It is one way, and the hotel says it doesn't run a return from the terminal. Reserve it with the bellman.

The State Hotel, downtown. The ride comes only with its Cruise, Stay & Explore package: a one-way trip for two to or from Pier 66 or Pier 91, run by Seattle Express Ride and booked at least 24 hours ahead, with a $25 daily hotel credit. The package price isn't published.

The MarQueen Hotel, Lower Queen Anne. The hotel arranges transport to either terminal through a local partner, and you pay the shuttle company directly. It doesn't publish a price.

1 Hotel Seattle, South Lake Union. It partners with Evergreen Shuttle for rides from the airport and from both cruise terminals, which helps on the way back rather than on sailing day. No price is published.

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Seattle-Sea-Tac Airport, SeaTac. National Town Car runs a shuttle to Pier 66 and Pier 91 for $25 a person each way, reserved at the front desk. It is the only airport hotel we found with a cruise shuttle on its own site.

Getting back after the cruise

Most of these rides only go from the hotel to the ship. On the way home, the port's Port Valet takes checked bags from the ship to your airline if you enroll in time, and the airport guide has the transfers to Sea-Tac.

Cruise packages without a ride to the pier

Some hotels sell a cruise package that doesn't include getting to the ship.

• The Mayflower Park's Come Sail Away package adds a $25 food or drink credit. Its shuttle is separate, at $15.
• Inn at the Market's cruise package includes two breakfast vouchers a day and a one-way town car from Sea-Tac to the hotel, and it says transport to the terminal is not included.
• The Edgewater offers special cruise rates by phone.

At Sea-Tac, the Hilton hotels sell a night with up to seven nights of parking, and the Coast Gateway sells park and fly stays. Hilton says some of its hotels also serve the cruise ports, so check with the hotel before you book. The Sea-Tac hotels guide compares them.
