Dreaming of a Seattle escape where the waves lull you to sleep and iconic cityscapes greet you each morning? I knew I wanted something peaceful yet centrally located, and that’s exactly what I found at The Edgewater Hotel, Seattle’s only over-the-water accommodation. It offers an unparalleled experience, blending rustic Pacific Northwest charm with breathtaking Elliott Bay views, and I even managed to book a room right next to my friend Jenn for our stay!
Wake Up to Waves: Your King Room with a View
Imagine waking up to the soothing sounds of water right beneath your feet. At The Edgewater, this isn’t just a dream – it’s your reality, especially when you book a King room with an over-the-water balcony. Step out onto your private balcony with your morning coffee and watch the ferries glide by, the Olympic Mountains majestically rise in the distance, and the city skyline sparkle. It’s truly the best way to start your day in the Emerald City. And, each room even has a cozy fireplace for chillier nights!
Prime Location: Steps from Seattle’s Best
Beyond the stunning views, The Edgewater Hotel Seattle boasts an unbeatable waterfront location. You’ll find yourself just a short walk or easy ride from many of Seattle’s most beloved attractions:
