Hotel 1000, Seattle, Washington

By Mark Thompson

 hotel1000_16

Who doesn’t appreciate a welcoming glass of Champagne upon check-in, served with a smile and genuine hospitality?  That’s the Hotel 1000‘s style of service, which pervades the entire 120-room boutique hotel in downtown Seattle.

Centrally located within easy walking distance of Seattle’s major attractions, Hotel 1000 resides on one of the city’s most vertiginous blocks: the top of the block is six stories above the pavement at the bottom, which makes for stunning city and water views throughout the building.

Guests at Hotel 1000 are treated as residents of Seattle’s first residential-hotel complex, which extends to the generously-sized rooms that are the equivalent of pied à terre apartments.

Bathrooms at Hotel 1000 are celebrated for their floor-to-ceiling vistas of downtown Seattle and Elliott Bay, as well as for the waterfall bathtubs where water flows from the ceiling.

Hotel 1000‘s in-house restaurant, BOKA restaurant + bar, is helmed by Chef Peter Birk whose innovative cuisine is a reflection of the Northwest’s indigenous bounty, complemented by Birk’s own Southern culinary heritage. New Caledonian blue prawns, for example, are served with creamy grits and hominy, thereby creating a Seattle equivalent to that Southern staple “shrimp-n-grits.”

The use of a car and driver is offered to Hotel 1000 guests for rides within a two-mile radius and Studio 1000, the lobby lounge, serves complimentary coffee and Mighty-O Donuts.

If you’re in need of additional Seattle romance, Hotel 1000 offers rose petal turndown service, with bubbly and long-stem roses  or mixed bouquets, as well as chocolate-covered strawberries and house-made chocolate truffles.

A member of the Preferred Hotel Group, Hotel 1000 has received numerous awards from various periodicals since its 2006 opening and is listed on Condé Nast Traveler “Gold List” and Travel + Leisure as one of the best hotels of 2012.

In short, a respite at Hotel 1000 makes you feel as coddled as a film star and as happy as a Seattleite.
