But you can take a non-stop Metro bus from the airport to downtown and vice-versa; it's nearly free ($1.25). www.transit.metrokc.gov/

No, none of the hotels here do that (except the ones down at SeaTac for the short hop over to SeaTac airport).
Besides using Metro public transportation system (which I do not necessary recommend if you have a suitcase of a larger size...)
there is the Downtown Airporter by Greyline. It's a shuttle that goes from SeaTac and loops thru downtown stopping at the major hotels (Sheraton, Warwick, etc.) They have a website and run other type tours. It's a full-size very nice bus and set up to handle luggage ~$10?

Just a caution -- don't want to set up a firestorm of controversy here -- but since I was the one who first suggested the Metro bus I would like to add that I would only do this during daylight hours. The bus does pass through some fairly seedy areas on its way to downtown.

I don't think Metro is necesssarily dangerous even at night, but I DO think it takes longer and is a hassle with a suitcase. And is nothing I would recommend for someone visiting Seattle for the first time.
A taxi will be not more than $40 max. or the shuttle for $10.25.

KimPossible: Every time I travel to Seattle for business, I stay at the Warwick. My wife goes with me because the hotel offers a local shuttle in the downtown area. I think it's a two mile radius of of the hotel. Not sure about a shuttle to the airport.
