Hotel Directory
The Maxwell Hotel
Wonderfully eccentric décor, friendly staff and an enviable downtown location combine to make this one of the city's top mid-range boutique hotels. Rooms are famously comfortable (some even boast views over towards the Space Needle) and guests have access to an indoor pool, fitness centre, café and 24-hour business centre. Outside, it's just a hop-and-a-skip to major attractions such as the Teatro ZinZanni, Seattle Center and Experience Music Project Museum.
Hotel FIVE
Modern and colourful, Hotel Five's guest rooms are all shiny hardwood floors, bright red accent walls and super-contemporary furnishings. It's the neat little extras that make this hotel stand out too – freshly baked pineapple cupcakes and coffee each afternoon in reception, golf umbrellas in every room (a Seattle essential), plus complimentary bikes and town car service. Max's Café is a great stop for breakfast or lunch.
Hotel Max
Funky Hotel Max sells itself as a destination for the 'creatively inclined'. Its décor is bold, bright and chic, with original Seattle artwork throughout. Each guest floor hallway focuses on the work of a particular photographer – check out the fifth floor for the works of Charles Peterson, who documented Seattle's grunge era. This floor celebrates Seattle's Sub Pop Records indie record label and each room comes with a Crosley record player and vinyl records curated by Sub Pop.
