We’re a serious sports town, with basketball, baseball, hockey, soccer, rugby, and yeah, that sweet, sweet football. You’re heading to Lumen Field, one of the toughest and loudest stadiums in the NFL, to see your Hawks in action.

Cracking the Code on Your Seattle Stay
Seattle’s a major city, so you’ve got options for where to crash. For families, Lower Queen Anne/Seattle Center is your spot. It’s super quiet and safe, packed with family-friendly stuff like the Pacific Science Center, the Space Needle, and the Museum of Pop Culture. The Mediterranean Inn and Hampton Inn & Suites are solid, affordable picks, running from $104 to $200 a night. Plus, you’re only about 15 minutes from Lumen Field.
First-timers who aren’t sweating the budget should check out Downtown & the Waterfront. You’re right on the Link light rail, making it a breeze to get from SeaTac Airport straight to your hotel and back. You’ll snag a sweet waterfront view and be super close to Pike Place Market. Lumen Field is just about 10 minutes away, so it’s super convenient. The Mayflower Park Hotel and the Inn at the Market are both top-tier recommendations, with prices from $160 to $350 per night.
Now, if you’re all about that nightlife and soaking in local vibes, Belltown and Capitol Hill are calling your name. Belltown is loaded with coffee shops, bars, and restaurants to explore.

Or, check out the Seattle Gaslight Inn, a cool B&B starting at $138 per night, about 18 minutes from the stadium.
