Fairmont Olympic Hotel

Frommer's Review

If you're looking for classically elegant surroundings, excellent service, and great amenities, then head straight for the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, a gorgeous facsimile of an Italian Renaissance palace. Without a doubt, this hotel has the grandest lobby in Seattle. Gilt-and-crystal chandeliers hang from the arched ceiling, while ornate moldings grace the glowing hand-burnished oak walls and pillars. Although many of the guest rooms tend to be rather small (with either two twin beds or one king bed), all are very elegant. If you crave extra space, opt for one of the suites, of which there are more than 200 (however, be aware that the executive suites aren't much bigger than the hotel's deluxe rooms). The Georgian is the most elegant restaurant in Seattle, with a menu that combines creative Northwest and Continental cuisines.

Facilities:2 restaurants (Continental/Northwest, seafood); lounge; health club with indoor pool, exercise machines, Jacuzzi, and saunas; spa; children's programs; concierge; downtown courtesy car; business center; shopping arcade; 24-hr. room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning.
