Seattle, WA Hotels

Seattle, WA Hotels
Seattle is a modern metropolis dominated by the Space Needle and characterized by the still futuristic means of mass transportation known as the Seattle Center Monorail. Staying at a hotel in Seattle is a good place to get out of the rain, but the precipitation is rarely strong or long enough to warrant missing a fine day on local golf courses like West Seattle Golf Course, the Seattle Golf Club or Foster Golf Links.

The W Hotel

The W Hotel offers many amenities as standard features in its rooms, including DVD players, a mini-bar, down pillows, hairdryer, spa robes waiting for you in the closet, iron and ironing board and wireless Internet service. Deluxe suites add luxury in the form of floor to wall windows, chaise lounges, a BOSE SurroundSound stereo system, in-room Jacuzzi tubs and separate living areas. Relax in the Living Room parlor that features a large fireplace, board games and a library. The fitness center is packed with treadmills, elliptical trainers, Cybex equipment and free weights. One very notable feature of the W is the ability to dial up a complimentary ride to anywhere in the city that you want in an Acura luxury SUV. This hotel is less than five miles from the West Seattle Golf Course.
