This perfectly renovated historical (1914) hotel was immaculate, the room was very comfortable, the hotel staff were courteous and knowledgeable, and the location was less than a block from the waterfront (ferries Pier 50) and only two blocks from the light rail station (fare to SeaTac only $2.75). Step back to 1914 as you are greeted by the historic ambiance of the rich, dark wood, the welcoming fireplace and sitting area, the original grand staircase and period furnishings on the floor landings. Our quiet room was beautifully decorated with heavy, brocade draperies, a tapestry highback sitting chair, and a loveseat/setee besides two very comfortable beds, a flat screen TV, a Keurig coffeemaker, Paul Newman coffee products, a writing desk and chair, plush bathroom towels, and Sister Sky toiletries. The expanded continental breakfast offered an array of cold and hot cereal, fresh fruit, hot bacon/egg/cheese wrap, juices, hot beverages, fresh Belgian waffles, pastries, muffins, and bagels (and an actual bagel slicer!). I highly recommend a room with a balcony to step out and experience the ambiance of the area! Seattle's transportation system is convenient and the taxis are very reasonable. Otherwise, parking is hard to find and expensive. I plan to make more trips to Seattle now that I will have a great place to stay and convenient transportation.
