“Location, location, location” is as important when choosing a hotel as it is when buying real estate. When you’re in Seattle for either work or pleasure, the Inn at Harbor Steps is the perfect place to stay. The inn’s prime location means you’ll be able to walk almost anywhere downtown, including famous Pike Place Market, just two blocks away.
When you aren’t out on the town, the Inn at Harbor Steps will see to your every comfort. The property boasts 28 spacious guestrooms, a fully-equipped fitness center, sports court, Jacuzzi, lap pool and full-length pool. Of course, you’ll also enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast, and afternoon wine and hors d’oeuvres.
Extend your stay, and take advantage of all the city has to offer. Make it a romantic getaway, and enjoy the Seattle Art Museum, with both permanent and rotating exhibits, located literally across the street from the inn. Benaroya Symphony Hall is a block away and has a fabulous variety of musical offerings this fall. You can take the waterfront train and venture down to Pioneer Square, with its wealth of art galleries, bookstores, antique shops, cool restaurants, and buzzing nightclubs.
Shopping probably couldn’t get much better than this, with everything from small, trendy boutiques to the flagship Nordstrom’s store. An afternoon spent roaming the stalls at Pike Place Market, filled with local organic produce, beautiful flowers and gourmet products, is time well spent. Watch fish fly at the Pike Place Fish Market, stop in at Beecher’s Handmade Cheese, and finish with a drink overlooking the water at Matt’s in the Market.
Some of our favorite restaurants include The Pink Door, Wild Ginger, The Metropolitan Grill and The Brooklyn. For a fabulous evening of fun, try Teatro ZinZanni, which includes a five-course Tom Douglas dinner (he runs a number of acclaimed restaurants throughout Seattle) and a three-hour show.
If you’re traveling with children, the Inn at Harbor Steps offers eight rooms with two queen beds each, perfect for families. The kids will love soaring up the Space Needle, the extraordinary Experience Music Project, the Museum of Flight and the Pacific Science Center. And if a cruise is on your agenda, the inn is only a short cab from the departure location.
