Our Trip to the Emerald City, Seattle…

Seattle is a wonderful destination, and we’re proud to soon be featuring over 30 hotels throughout the “Emerald City!” We had the great pleasure of staying at the W Seattle, located in the heart of downtown. If you’ve never stayed at a W property, you’re simply missing out. The W Seattle strikes the right balance of cool, sophisticated and comfortable, and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay. Our rooms offered stunning views of the Seattle skyline and Seattle Space Needles… simply spectacular.

We decided to include several major Downtown Seattle hotels, as well as hotels throughout the greater Seattle area including Bellevue and Kirkland, Washington. Whether you’ll be staying downtown, visiting the University of Washington, or in the outer lying areas such as Bellevue, we covered it!

Seattle will be our 11th destination, so you can say that we’ve seen our fair share of hotels and resorts across the county. We were impressed with the selection of hotels that Seattle has to offer. Just to mention a few newcomers that we covered, the Pan Pacific Seattle, the Heathman Kirkland, the Hotel Max Seattle and the Hotel 1000 were all noteworthy selections. We were particularly impressed by Hotel 1000’s indoor “Virtual Golf Course”, how neat is that? Golfers can use their own clubs and play on a variety of PGA virtual courses throughout the country.

We also had the pleasure of staying at the Westin Bellevue, located in the quaint and impressively clean town of Bellevue Washington. The Westin was upscale, hip and incredibly convenient to most everything in Downtown Bellevue. We particularly enjoyed the “Grand Deluxe” category rooms, which offers generously sized rooms with impressive bathrooms (separate showers and whirlpool bathtubs, a must!) These Grand Deluxe Rooms are only on select floors, but are well worth the upgrade.

Well, we should be launching Seattle very shortly, so stay tuned!
