I had the privilege of experiencing the fine amenities of this hotel and this was my stay:
The Experience –
Comfort, Luxury and Simplicity. As I enter the suite, I move along a small corridor that opens up into a private penthouse with 2 large bathrooms, a spacious living area with an L-shaped couch sitting area and a large dining room table providing seating for 10. The space is an open corner room with windows of the North and West. The West side offers a reachable view of the Space Needle in which you feel that you can almost touch.
A private office station is equipped for any executives needs and the bedroom is comfortable, private and plush. The master bathroom provides a double sink, free standing shower and sunken bath tub with shoji Japanese style shutters which can be opened to provide bathers with a view.
Each room can be sectioned off for hosting company or guests can enjoy the spacious setting of a penthouse apartment.
The table was set upon arrival with a pre-selected menu from acclaimed chef, Jon Howie of Seastar Restaurant & Raw Bar. This included a personal steward that delivered a 3 course dinner with a wine pairing of some of the West Coast’s most notable wines.

The meal was coursed by a knowledgeable personal steward who provided information about the locally sourced produce and wines.
The 1st course began with:
Kal-bi Pork Medallions – Flash seared kal-bi pork medallions with sesame seeds and kal-bi glaze
Dungeness Crab Cakes – Dungeness crab, sweet cream and vegetables tossed in panko breadcrumbs, pan-seared with Thai sweet chili beurre blanc

2nd Course continued with:

Surf & Turf – 5 oz. fire grilled sirloin and 3 Dungeness crab legs served atop Yukon gold mashed potatoes with grilled asparagus and a veal demi glaze
Cedar Plank Roasted North West King Salmon – Pacific northwestern red king salmon seasoned with Chef Howie’s famous rub, roasted on a cedar plank to impart a subtle woodsy flavor, served with smoked broccoli and citrus rice
The courses were properly paired with the following wines:
Canoe Ridge Estate – Chardonnay, Columbia Valley, WA 2010
Trimbach – Pinot Blanc, Alsace France
Gilbert Cellars – Left Bank Red Blend, Yakima, WA 2010
Paul Dolan – Cabernet Sauvignon, Mendacino, CA 2010
3rd course was a perfect finish to a meal with fresh seasonal berries.
After an incredible meal, I drew a bath in the master bathroom sunken tub and enjoyed the view with the shoji style screens open using the Aveda bath amenities.
Then wrapped myself in a plush robe and crawled into the Hypnos bed (warranted by the Queen of England) adorned with 360 thread count Egyptian cotton linens. Best sleep ever.
