1) Presidential Suite — top pick for space and views
Why it tops the list: The Presidential Suite is the hotel's largest/most exclusive accommodation and offers the most extensive living and entertaining space among the room types listed. Expect a separate living room, dining area and a bedroom arranged for privacy and hosting.
Who should book it: Couples celebrating a milestone, executives needing a meeting-ready suite, or anyone who wants the largest footprint the hotel offers. Exact square footage for this suite is not provided in the hotel's room list above.
- Bed: 1 King Bed (room list)
- Separate living and dining spaces (hotel descriptions note grand piano and dining areas in the presidential suite imagery)
- Best city and bay sightlines available from upper floors
| Feature | Notes |
|---|---|
| Suitability | Large groups, celebrations, executive stays |
| Privacy | High — separate living and sleeping areas |
| View | Panoramic city and bay views (upper floors) |
2) Premier Suite, Bay View / Premier Suite, City View — best combination of size and outlook
Why it’s high-ranked: Both Premier Suite options are among the largest suites listed (Premier Suite, City View is 959 sq. ft.; Premier Suite, Bay View is 891 sq. ft.) and are specifically offered with Bay or City outlooks. They give guests a true suite layout — living and dining areas separate from the bedroom — at a step below the Presidential Suite.
When to choose Bay vs City: Choose Premier Suite, Bay View if your priority is Elliott Bay/water views; choose Premier Suite, City View if you prefer downtown skyline vistas. Both suites list flexible bedding (Premier Suite, City View mentions 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds).
- Premier Suite, City View — 959 sq. ft.; beds: 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds
- Premier Suite, Bay View — 891 sq. ft.; bed: 1 King Bed
- Separate living/dining areas suitable for small meetings or family space
| Suite | Size | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Premier Suite, City View | 959 sq. ft. | Downtown skyline and larger floorplan |
| Premier Suite, Bay View | 891 sq. ft. | Water and Elliott Bay views |
3) Deluxe Suite, City View — roomy suite without premium bay price
Why it’s a solid middle-ground: The Deluxe Suite, City View (669 sq. ft.) provides a clear step up from junior suites and deluxe rooms while staying smaller than the Premier Suites. It’s a good balance of separate living space and a bedroom for guests wanting suite amenities without the largest suite rates.
Who it suits: Travelers wanting a one-bedroom suite footprint — space to work, relax, or host a private meal — while staying in a downtown-facing room.
- Size: 669 sq. ft.
- Bed: 1 King Bed
- City-facing windows and separate living area
| Feature | Deluxe Suite, City View |
|---|---|
| Square footage | 669 sq. ft. |
| Occupancy | Listed for up to 3 Guests |
| Best use | Longer stays, small meetings, extra living space |
4) Junior Suite, Bay View and Junior Suite, City View — compact suites with strong views
What to expect: Both Junior Suite types are 555 sq. ft. and listed with 1 King Bed. They provide a single-room suite layout with distinct seating that’s more generous than a standard guest room but without a separate bedroom.
Best reasons to pick one: Choose Junior Suite, Bay View when you want water-facing windows; pick Junior Suite, City View for downtown building sights. Both are good for guests who want a suite-like seating area without the larger suite footprint.
- Both are 555 sq. ft.; both list 1 King Bed
- Junior Suite, Bay View — better for Elliott Bay / harbor sightlines
- Junior Suite, City View — better for downtown skyline and citylight views
| Junior Suite Type | Size | Best view |
|---|---|---|
| Junior Suite, Bay View | 555 sq. ft. | Elliott Bay / harbor |
| Junior Suite, City View | 555 sq. ft. | Downtown skyline |
5) Deluxe Room, Bay View and Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed, City View — best standard rooms
Why these standard rooms stand out: Deluxe Room, Bay View (408 sq. ft.) gives a bay/water sightline in a standard room size. The Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed, City View is larger on the city side (401 sq. ft. listed for the king option) and the property lists both king and two-queen configurations for the city-view Deluxe category.
Who should pick them: Travelers who prefer a standard hotel room but want strong window views and sensible space. Deluxe Room options are the hotel’s primary standard categories with city or bay outlooks.
- Deluxe Room, Bay View — 408 sq. ft.; 1 King Bed (listed)
- Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed, City View — 401 sq. ft.; bed options include 1 King or 2 Queen Beds
- Standard amenities included: complimentary WiFi (via Urban Experience Fee), in-room seating and marble-finish bathrooms in many rooms (hotel imagery)
| Room type | Size | Sleep setup |
|---|---|---|
| Deluxe Room, Bay View | 408 sq. ft. | 1 King Bed |
| Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed, City View | 401 sq. ft. | 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds |
6) Superior Room, Bay View / Superior Room, City View and Premier Room options — compact choices
What these rooms offer: Superior Rooms are the smaller guest-room types listed (Superior Room, Bay View 281 sq. ft.; Superior Room, City View 290 sq. ft.) and are best if you mainly need a comfortable bed and a view but plan to spend most time out exploring downtown.
Premier Room alternatives: Premier Room, 1 King Bed, City View (446 sq. ft.) and Premier Room, 2 Double Beds, City View (505 sq. ft.) sit above Superior Rooms in size and will feel roomier for two adults or small families.
- Superior Room, Bay View — 281 sq. ft.; 1 King Bed
- Superior Room, City View — 290 sq. ft.; 1 King Bed
- Premier Room, 1 King Bed, City View — 446 sq. ft.; good middle-ground standard room
- Premier Room, 2 Double Beds, City View — 505 sq. ft.; good for families needing two beds

| Superior Room, Bay View | 281 sq. ft. | Solo travelers wanting water views |
| Superior Room, City View | 290 sq. ft. | Solo travelers wanting downtown views |
| Premier Room, 1 King Bed, City View | 446 sq. ft. | Couples who want more space |
