The hotel

Like a beautiful, glass puzzle box, this newcomer to Seattle’s luxury boutique hotel scene stands just a block away from Pike Place Market and the waterfront. As such it commands disarming views of Puget Sound through to the distant Olympic Mountains from The Nest – the Thompson Seattle’s urbane rooftop bar and outdoor living room – and many of its rooms and suites – through pulse-quickening, floor-to-ceiling windows. Decorated with elegant materials given quirky contemporary life through an understated colour palette, the look and feel is very much 'comfortable luxury residence'; something that’s only enhanced by a 24-hour fitness centre, complimentary WiFi, and California Kitchen, a restaurant that turns the finest locally sourced ingredients into dishes that become lifelong memories.

The stay was very convenient because it's closed with the downtown. My room is big enough and the view from hotel (ocean view) was so great!!! I have stayed very comfortable as well.

We enjoyed our short weekend stay before our cruise. Hotel is clean and staff friendly and helpful. Be sure to try the yummy cookies at the front desk. We liked the pour over coffee in the room. We tried the rooftop but the vibe was too loud and crowded. It would be the perfect peaceful spot for morning coffee and great scenery (hint hint 😉).… Read more

The Thompson is a great hotel perfectly located near the public market. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The rooftop bar offers an amazing view and great cocktails. Chuck, the concierge was friendly and very knowledgeable. He offered great recommendations for activities as well as restaurants in the area.
