Michelin Guide "This luxury boutique hotel, ensconced in a historic building, combines Northwest art and over-the-top service."
Gayot "This luxury boutique hotel isn't just near many of Seattle's major attractions --- it's also one of them."
BlackBook "Not the hippest stay in town, but rooms that showcase exposed brick and a hotel rocking the early works of Dale Chihuly on the walls? Not the stuffiest, either."
Zagat4.3
"In a "prime location" halfway between Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square, this "elegant" Downtown Kimpton boutique is "all about artistry"."

Star Service "This coy Kimpton derivative lures back its long list of repeat clients with personal service, notable food and well-equipped—though sometimes small—accommodations." Full review

The Telegraph9.0
"Consistently ranked among Seattle’s best hotels." Full review
Frommer's "It’s a sexy hotel, with many furnishings designed by local talent, which means unusual features like sliding “barn doors” for the bathrooms, and bathrooms that combine showers and claw foot tubs." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Run by the Kimpton Group as an upscale boutique hotel, the Palladian’s vintage neoclassical façade lives up to its name." Full review
Michelin Guide "The Social Hour, where local wines, spirits and beers flow freely...there’s also the can-do spirit of the service staff, and the inclusive, rather than exclusive, atmosphere." Full review
