Sleeps 5 Hotels in Seattle, London, San Francisco - Family Rooms

Check out our new pages for hotels with a Family Room to sleep 5 in Seattle, London, and San Francisco. We scoured all kinds of travel resources for hotels, then contacted each one to confirm a room exists that can accommodate a family of 5.

The Seattle page is the newest, just in time for the Vancouver, Olympics!, and will soon include more details about all of the hotels, and will be organized by downtown area. (Photo is of our kids in front of the Olympics digital countdown in Vancouver, BC in August, 2007.)

The London and San Francisco pages each have a Google map that shows all the hotels we list in those cities. I am still working on how to number those little flags, or have the hotel name appear when scrolled over, so viewers can tell which hotel it is without clicking open a text box.

Special steps are usually required of the travel planner to reserve a Family Room. We have found:

• Some hotels have only one large room;
• Some hotels have a few large rooms;
• Most large rooms are not listed anywhere online as a quintuple room, not even on the hotel's website;
• Many of the large rooms require reservation of an extra bed or crib to sleep 5;
• Many hotels don't include their large rooms on discount hotel search engines.

To reserve a room for 5 at some hotels, a traveler must book a certain room online, then phone the hotel to request the large room, or an extra bed or crib. Or, a traveler must inquire with the hotel directly to book (reserve) a particular room with available space and an extra bed or crib. On Sleeps5.com, those special steps are all revealed in the hotel descriptions.
