Best for families and guests who want a full-service downtown stay with an indoor skyline pool and club options.

Best for large conventions, meeting planners, and travelers who prefer a newer, large-scale downtown hotel with huge conference facilities.
When Sheraton Grand Seattle wins: choose Sheraton Grand if having an on-site heated indoor pool with skyline and Puget Sound views, a bi-level fitness center on the 35th floor, and a more traditionally full-service Sheraton experience matter to you (families and leisure travelers often prefer this).
When Hyatt Regency Seattle wins: pick Hyatt Regency Seattle if your priority is very large, modern meeting and event space (about 103,000 sq ft of conference facilities listed), or if brand/scale and a newer convention-hotel layout are important for your stay.
Bottom line: both are downtown convention hotels within a short walk of the Seattle Convention Center and Pike Place Market. Sheraton Grand leans toward full-service hotel comfort with a standout high-floor pool; Hyatt Regency Seattle is the practical choice for very large meetings and a newer, convention-focused property.
