An historic hotel that doesn't feel like a carbon copy
This used to be the Olympic; another time was the Four Seasons. As part of the growing Fairmont chain this beautifully refurbished hotel goes out of its way to help visitors relax and quickly feel known and welcome. Very spacious and open, multi-leveled lobby leading up to a beautiful dining room. Cozy bar and inventive drinks. Excellent spa with good swimming pool and hot tub; massage room; sauna. Staff is uniformly gracious and proactive in anticipating guests' needs. House car available for short trips, first-come first-served. Very well located; five blocks from Pike Place; two blocks from convention center. Will definitely return.
