High-tech waterfront cocoon
Networked rooms and discreet infrared sensors shape an easy, quietly high-tech downtown haven.
“Modern, elegant, and focused on service, the Hotel 1000 is an excellent choice for travelers wanting luxury amenities in a smaller downtown property.”
Where it shines
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
It’s Seattle through and through, from the slightly woodsy, slightly Pacific-Rim décor to the high-tech underpinnings of the place — everything’s networked...
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
First Avenue puts you two blocks from the waterfront piers, with the Seattle Art Museum a short stroll away.
The rooms
Pedestal soaking tubs fill from spouts in the ceiling, while floor-to-ceiling windows look out toward Elliott Bay.
The spa
Treatment rooms host customized bodywork and scrubs, with plush blue banquettes set beside individual foot-soaking basins.
The sauna and gym
A cedar-lined dry sauna offers quiet thermal recovery, steps from a 24-hour gym stocked with cardio and strength equipment.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
Rosebay
A central glass fireplace warms the street-level lounge, where bartenders mix craft cocktails beside curved chartreuse banquettes.
The lobby’s a total stunner. A transfixing light fixture—250 raindrops formed from hand-blown LED glass—meanders around the ceiling and a marble backdrop adds additional weight and flair.
At the table
All Water Seafood & Oyster Bar serves Puget Sound oysters, King salmon, and Dungeness crab fresh from coastal waters.
How it began
Built in 2006 beneath Madison Tower, the hotel stands on the former site of Warshal's Sporting Goods.
