"A 152-room downtown property overlooking Puget Sound that secured a spot in the 2024 World’s Best Awards, prized for its location and abundant natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows. Highlights include crisp SFERRA sheets and oversized Frette bathrobes, waterview rooms and spacious suites that are “the real stars of the show,” plus a buzzy rooftop lounge that offers spectacular views over Pike Place Market and the Puget Sound. What to consider: rooms aren’t as spacious as some similar-caliber properties in the area. Practical details include parking ($55 per day), no pets allowed, ADA-accessible rooms and facilities, World of Hyatt loyalty participation, and rates from $186; booking tip: “It’s worth springing for a room on a higher floor, where you can get a view of the water.”" - Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd Sophie Dodd is a travel, wine and lifestyle writer.
