My husband and I stayed here twice in between an Alaskan cruise last summer leading up to the 4th of July fireworks and we loved our stay. We ended up with a room overlooking the water where we could watch ferry boats coming and going and the happenings by the pier. The hotel is only one block from Pike Place Market so there are tons and tons of dining options and floral options within an easy 5-minute walk. I purchased probably 10 flower bouquets during my stay and the staff offered me complimentary vases to keep them in. Our room was large with a wall of windows on a corner overlooking not only the water - but the pool. Views were stunning but the room had a well-laid out desk and seating area for my husband and I to work while we stayed. The gym and spa are interesting with the gym parallel to the pool while the spa is down a small flight of stairs (or elevator) and is small, but pristine and welcoming. Staff were friendly and I had a wonderful and relaxing massage by a skilled therapist who really worked out the kinks in my back from two weeks of travel and stress. I had a treatment focusing on detoxification that was called Emerald Rain if I remember correctly. VERY nice. The menu for room service was good - they had a delicious açaí bowl I had several times and smoothies that I could customize and enjoyed as a light snack or meal if we got back too late to eat. I enjoyed our stay in this lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. I plan to come back again during my next trip to Seattle.
