Seattle's Arctic Club Hotel

The entrance from Cherry St.


The view as you enter the 2nd floor lobby.


In the early 1900's they required gentleman to wear collars before entering the club.


Dome on the 3rd floor is available for wedding receptions....


Door Numbers


They did a great job of capturing the era of their prime in the room decor.


Bathroom in our suite reminded me of Sherlock Holmes office door.


In lieu of mints on our pillow...




The hotel only opened a few weeks ago but you would never know based on the level of service and its charm. It was purchased a few years ago for a cool $5 million, the price of many homes in LA, and was renovated by Weaver Architects and Candra Scott & Anderson Interior Designs for $10 million before opening its doors.

We'll be back to play more of your pool, drink your absinthe and your delicious ginger lemon drops and take in all of your beauty.
