"This upscale boutique hotel, featuring 121 eclectic guestrooms that cater to every possible personality, is about as perfectly located as a downtown hotel can be." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Seattle’s first self-proclaimed “art hotel” fills its 121 rooms with works selected by a Seattle Art Museum curator." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Since 1901, the Alexis has lived up to its stellar reputation as an elegant haven for those who prefer pampering."

Each morning, guests receive newspapers; each evening, they get a wine reception; and each night, upon request, chocolates come with turndown.
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"."

Gayot "These discreet lodgings offer loads of character in the heart of the city."
Travel + Leisure "Many of the upper-floor hotel rooms have excellent views of Elliott Bay; all have electric interiors—think electric pink accents and geometric prints." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Sleek and modern; it takes advantage of its heart-of-the-city location with an urban vibe that runs through its lobby, and 319 guest rooms." Full review
Fodor's "With a hip vibe and signature design motifs updated yearly by a different local designer, this stylish urban property has a boutique feel despite its large size." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Atmosphere at Motif is heavily inspired by Seattle's vibrant music and arts scene. The downtown hotel has a chic rooftop lounge, and its restaurant, Frolik Kitchen + Cocktails, is not to be missed."
