Transportation to and from the Airport

The best transportation to Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to Downtown Seattle is through our new light rail system. The train leaves from from the Airport and goes directly to University Street Station, which is 4 short city block from the hotel. Exit at 3rd Avenue and Seneca Street and walk 2 blocks South and 2 blocks East to Madison Street and 5th Avenue. The ride takes 30-40 minutes. Seattle Lite Rail.

Taxi Cabs provide quick and relatively affordable transportation to and from the airport. The ride costs $28 from the downtown hotel district and will take about 20-50 minutes depending on traffic. Follow the signs in the terminal across the skybridge and down the escalator to the taxi stand.

The Renaissance Seattle Hotel website has directions from the airport and information on parking directions to the hotel.
