Read MoreSpent the weekend here with my mom, and overall, it was a truly lovely experience! We booked an executive suite with a view of Lake Washington but were initially placed in a room on the first floor so the view wasn’t as good as we had hoped. After we mentioned this, the staff graciously moved us to a room with a much better view (higher up). My mom later noticed online that the new room was listed at a lower rate, and when she inquired, they had already adjusted the price, which was such a thoughtful gesture.
The 5-star rating is all about the incredible staff—they were absolutely wonderful! Every employee we encountered during our four-day stay went above and beyond to provide exceptional service, making us feel so welcome. The building itself is stunning, both inside and out, with beautiful decor and thoughtful touches. We especially appreciated the free filtered water stations and the nightly snack pantry from 10 PM to midnight, where you can help yourself to a variety of treats. It added a bit of fun and made the stay extra memorable!
I have just two minor suggestions for improvement:
1. The room heater was quite loud, cycling on every 15 minutes and sounding a bit like an airplane taking off. As a light sleeper, I had trouble resting the first night. The second night, I turned it off to avoid being woken up, but the room got so chilly (down to 62°F) that I woke up freezing.
2. There’s a bell outside the hotel that chimes at 9 AM and 9 PM, striking nine times, and also rings hourly and on the half-hour. While charming, it could be a bit disruptive if you’re trying to sleep in past 9 AM.
That said, the location is unbeatable—gorgeous views, convenient parking, and a clean, safe, and very walkable area. The setting is perfect for a relaxing getaway. As locals, this was a wonderful staycation, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat. One tip: the nearby restaurants are just okay, so we’d recommend heading a mile north for better dining options.
We had such a great time, and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again for another staycation!
