Located in Seattle’s oldest neighborhood, a new Embassy Suites by Hilton is now open. The 282 all-suite property comprises two-room suites and studio suites with panoramic views of Seattle and Elliott Bay.

The Freiheit Architecture-designed hotel is located near CenturyLink Field and Safeco Field, Pike Place Market, Pier 55, and the Seattle Art Museum. The hotel is composed of two glass towers; one that houses the six-story atrium lobby, guest amenities, and guest rooms and suites above, and one that houses the 7,433-sf King Street Ballroom (which can hold up to 600 people), an outdoor event terrace, indoor pool, and leased office space.

Additional amenities include a health club with a heated indoor pool, an exercise room and sun deck, an upper work loft, and an outdoor courtyard. Each room comes equipped with an HDTV, wet bar, refrigerator, microwave, and complimentary WiFi.

Degen & Degen provided interior design services for the project and SoDo Builders was the gernal contractor.
