- Directions from Sea-Tac Airport: 21.8 mi – about 27 mins (up to 55 mins in traffic).
- Public Transportation: Map with Bus information and schedules.
- Hotel: The closest hotel to Microsoft is a Marriott
Courtyard. There are shuttles to the Microsoft campus right next door
to the hotel. Contact information for the hotel is:

There are many other hotel options in Redmond, Bellevue and Seattle. A hotel in Redmond or Bellevue instead of Seattle is a better choice since the commute from Seattle to Microsoft can be terrible (45 minutes +). Bellevue is growing, small city about a 15 minute drive from the Microsoft campus with many amenities like restaurants, bars and movie theatres.
