We purchased the Seattle City pass which included a trip up the tower. We went up the tower and were able to enjoy the view of the city during the day. We had a clear day and so we were able to see for quite a distance. The nice thing about the ticket is that you are given re admittance... More

My family and I took advantage of the fact we arrived a day early in Seattle before embarking on our Alaskan cruise to take in some sights. We went to the Space Needle. It was a truly a fantastic view of the city and surrounding area. We could see our cruise ship and Mt. Rainier in the distance. The price... More

We went to visit the needle since it was the one thing in Seattle we felt we needed to do - it is an icon, after all. It certainly wasn't a bad trip - even though it was a cloudy day when we went up, there were good views of the city. However, it wasn't the best observation tower we've... More

We went to the space need during the day and at night time and thought it was fantastic. It was a very good 360 degree view of the city and was great to see the lights of the city at night.

Space needle is recommended as one of the things to do in Seattle. I spent an hour there with family and we were all very happy we did so. We to very good view of the harbour and the city. It is time well spent and good way to put the city in perspective. The lines can be long so... More

Since we were in Seattle we felt that we needed to at least say we went to the Space Needle. But if you have ever been to NY, it's much like visiting the Empire State Bldg. You pay to go all the way to the top just to look down. We paid $19 pp for our tickets to go to... More

It was ok, nothing spectacular about it after you reach at the top and view the buildings below. That's just it, no wow moment.

My friend and I spent a week visiting Seattle and used our time there to visit the Space Needle. We arrived just before sunset; we enjoyed the views with the sunny fully up, posing and taking pictures. Then as the sun set, the sky changed colors so we took more photos. We were having such a good time, enjoying the... More

For $20 a pop you get to see downtown Seattle? Who cares? Maybe if there ever were a clear day, you could see the mountains. It's been in operation for 50 years now--you'd think they could stop gouging the tourists. Compared to the Eiffel tower, this was a big disappointment.
