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"."
