Does anyone know how much it costs to park there, and any less-expensive alternatives? Is there a fee for 1-800 phone calls for the Priceline-privileged but status-challenged?

I would strongly urge you not to have a car while you're in SEA unless you want to do a day trip somewhere. Parking is expensive. At the Hyatt it is $25 per night (about). You can park next door for $4 for 3 hours, but then it jumps to $6 for 4 hours, etc. Also they do not have overnight parking. There is a Hertz rental car agency next to the Hyatt in case you want/need to rent a car for the day.
Public transportation in and around downtown is free and easy to catch - bus. There is the monorail from Westlake to Seattle Center that runs $2.50 round trip. And of course, there are always your feet!
Also I do believe that like every other hotel, there is a charge for 1-800 numbers but you may want to call the Hyatt yourself to find out.
