Hillside Room

The Hillside Room has a hill view. Blackout drapes let you keep the room dark for sleeping. The hotel occupies floors 3–11 of an 18-story tower in South Lake Union, so the Hillside Room is a calm, city-centre room. The hotel's Space Needle views are promoted for its event spaces, not for this category.

The room is 355 sq. ft. with one king bed and sleeps up to 2 guests, which suits a couple or a solo traveller. The bed has Egyptian cotton sheets and hypo-allergenic, premium bedding. A rollaway or extra bed can be requested for a surcharge.

The private bathroom has a deep soaking bathtub and a separate rainfall shower. Bathrobes and slippers are provided, along with a hair dryer and full-sized, Bamford Spa-formulated toiletries. Towels are changed every 2 days.

It includes Braille and raised signage, a vibrating pillow alarm, a visual fire alarm, a phone accessibility kit and a closed-captioned TV. Hardwood flooring runs through the room.

A mandatory daily amenity fee of $32 per room (before tax) is charged at check-in. It covers items such as the 'Mind and Movement' fitness and wellness experiences. Parking is valet only: $18 for up to two hours, or $69 overnight with in-and-out privileges. Wi-Fi is complimentary, and the fitness center has no extra fee.

Check-in is at 4:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM. The primary booking guest must be 21 or older. A major credit card is required to guarantee the reservation, and the same card must be shown at check-in. The hotel accepts American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover.

La Loba on the ground floor serves modern Catalan cuisine with Mediterranean and Japanese influences, for dinner daily from 4pm to 10pm and Sunday brunch from 10am to 2pm. Drift, just off the lobby, serves breakfast, café fare, a raw bar and cocktails, with a daily Social Hour from 3pm to 5pm. In-room dining runs from 6am to 10pm.

There is no pool and no traditional on-site spa. The Field House fitness center on the second floor has Peloton bikes, rowers, kettlebells, free weights and treadmills, plus classes such as HIIT and boxing. You can rent a HigherDOSE infrared sauna blanket or red-light face mask, and the concierge can book sessions at Circle Wellness, a thermal spa with cedar soaking tubs and cold plunges.

From 2125 Terry Avenue, the Space Needle is about a 15-minute walk, and the Amazon Spheres are about 400 meters away. MoPOP is about 0.5 miles, Pike Place Market about 0.6–0.8 miles, and Denny Park about a 6-minute walk. From Sea-Tac, the hotel partners with Evergreen Shuttle, and Link light rail runs to Westlake, the nearest station. Uber, Lyft and taxis also serve the hotel.
