"Famously Seattle’s only hotel built over Elliott Bay, The Edgewater trades uniformity for character—many rooms have fireplaces, sweeping water views, and cozy, picture‑window panoramas that let you fall asleep to lapping water and wake to mountain silhouettes. I appreciated its rock‑and‑roll backstory, tasteful memorabilia, and a seafood‑forward restaurant that leans into the maritime address; rooms skew cozy rather than sleek, perfect for sunset watchers who want the harbor at their feet." - Jessica Voelker
