This luxury boutique hotel has been in operation since the turn of the 20th century, making it as much a Seattle landmark as the famous Space Needle. Warm color tones and antiques fill the elegantly appointed rooms, which feature Aveda bath amenities, private bars, plush terrycloth bath robes, and soft Egyptian cotton bed linens. A friendly staff complements these luxurious accommodations with services like evening turndown with chocolates, complementary morning coffee, a complementary evening wine reception, and a Concierge that assists guests with every aspect of their Seattle trip. The Library Bistro, a 1940s-style supper club, offers contemporary American cuisine in a cozy, bookstore-like setting, while The Bookstore Bar is the perfect spot to unwind with a cocktail at the end of the day.
