Pamper Yourself at a Washington Inn
No commentsSeattle is a city that can be just about anything for anyone. For starters, there are boundless possibilities for outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll find plenty of art galleries, museums and theater. Travelers can island hop around the Puget Sound and feast on some of the Pacific Northwest’s finest cuisine. All of this and more awaits visitors to this exciting Washington city.
There are plenty of iconic sites - wonderful Pike Place Market with its produce, flower stalls and flying salmon, and the towering Space Needle and the world’s first Starbucks. There are tons of bookshops. In fact, there are more than 60 used bookstores in town, and the city has been ranked as having one of the most literate populations in the country. Museums range in subject from art to airplanes to science. There is a zoo and aquarium, as well. The Seattle Underground tours showcase old parts of the city that were built over after the Great Seattle Fire of 1889.
But perhaps you long for a quieter getaway, removed from the bustle of the city. If that is the case, why not consider a trip to one of the many islands that dot the Puget Sound. Many islands are easily accessible by ferry and offer quaint, old fashioned towns and picturesque scenery.
Whether you choose to stick to the city or prefer an island vacation, or even a mix of both, you’ll want a memorable place to stay. Here is a fun and romantic option to consider as your home base.
With its ideal downtown address, the Inn at Harbor Steps is the perfect home base for visitors to Seattle. This Seattle inn is located in a high-rise building in the city’s arts and business district. The inn offers all the amenities of a large hotel, but maintains the comfort and romance one expects from a bed and breakfast.
The spacious guest rooms include either queen or king beds, and most have a fireplace and view of the garden. A few guestrooms also include a jetted spa tub and small balcony. Soft, fluffy robes and bathrooms stocked with European bath products are just a few of the amenities. There is a concierge service and an on-site fitness center. A full breakfast buffet is served each morning. Afternoon tea and chocolate turn-down service are among the other treats guest will enjoy.
