Pike Place Market

Inn at the Market

Seattle's most sought-after boutique address sits literally inside Pike Place Market, with rooms overlooking Elliott Bay from private balconies and a rooftop deck that may be the finest sunset-watching spot in the city. The 70-room inn is intimate enough to feel residential but sophisticated enough to feel special.

Pike Place / Waterfront

The Edgewater Hotel

Built on a pier over Elliott Bay in 1962 for the World's Fair, The Edgewater is the only hotel where you can fish from your room window — a novelty that charmed The Beatles during their 1964 stay. The rugged Pacific Northwest lodge aesthetic, with stone fireplaces and tartan throws, feels genuinely romantic rather than contrived.

Seattle's most luxurious address occupies a prime position above the waterfront, with floor-to-ceiling views of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains from nearly every room.

★ 8.8 Excellent

A Curio Collection property that channels the spirit of Seattle's pioneering explorer culture through custom maps, mountaineering art, and rooms with an explorer-cabin-meets-luxury-hotel sensibility. The Charter Bar's Pacific Northwest whiskey program is among the most serious in the city.

Hotel Theodore — Downtown
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.0 Superb

A beautifully restored 1930 Beaux Arts building in the heart of downtown, with guest rooms that pay homage to Pacific Northwest naturalist Theodore Evermann through custom botanical illustrations and local artisan furnishings.
