Lotte Hotel Seattle

The place

In the center of Seattle, a 1908 Beaux-Arts building meets a new glass high-rise. Philippe Starck shaped the interiors toward a whimsical opulence — the 189 rooms and suites carry modern furniture, abstract carpets, large mirrors, colorful artwork, and marble bathrooms.

The 24-hour fitness center runs Technogym equipment behind floor-to-ceiling windows. Le SPA de l'hôtel LOTTE offers a steam room, a sauna, and four treatment rooms.

At Charlotte Restaurant & Lounge, the Pacific Northwest arrives with a creative contemporary twist.
