Puget Sound views from floor to ceiling, and the Four Seasons service standard applied to the Pacific Northwest. The pool is heated and the view is not obstructed.
The Four Seasons Hotel Seattle opened in 2008 on Union Street at the edge of the Pike Place Market neighbourhood, occupying a contemporary 21-story building designed to maximise views of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains to the west. The hotel's 147 rooms begin on the fifth floor, with the upper floors offering unobstructed panoramas of Puget Sound, the ferry traffic, and the Olympic Peninsula on clear days.
The rooms are the largest in Seattle luxury — the standard Superior Rooms begin at 500 square feet — and are finished in a warm palette of ivory and silver that references the city's Pacific light. The heated outdoor pool on the fifth floor, with its direct Sound views and a full food and beverage service, is the most dramatically positioned hotel pool in the Pacific Northwest. The spa and fitness centre are among the most comprehensively equipped in Seattle.
Union restaurant on the lobby level serves a Pacific Northwest-focused menu with an emphasis on Puget Sound seafood — oysters, Dungeness crab, Pacific halibut — that reflects the hotel's proximity to the Pike Place Market fishmongers. The concierge team's access to the market's specialty vendors — for private early-morning tours before the retail opening — is a genuine differentiator.
The Four Seasons Seattle is the city's business hotel for exactly the reasons the brand always produces: service precision, a breakfast venue where deals happen before 9am, and the kind of room quality that executives from New York and London expect without having to specify. The proximity to Pioneer Square's law firms and the Westlake Center's tech corridor makes the location efficient. See all business hotels →
The Puget Sound views, the heated pool overlooking the Olympics, and the Union restaurant's Pacific Northwest seafood menu create an anniversary stay that is specifically Seattle in a way that the Fairmont Olympic's more classical luxury is not. A clear-day anniversary dinner at Union, watching the ferry traffic on the Sound as the Olympics turn pink at dusk, is the most cinematically satisfying anniversary meal in Washington State.
