1) Suite (Regency) — best overall for space and views
Why it tops the list: the Suite (Regency) offers the largest in-room footprint and a separate living area that makes it easy to work, eat, or entertain without crowding the bedroom. The suite layout and large windows are the strongest advantage for travelers who plan to spend time in the room.
Who should book it: small families, business travelers who need meeting space in-room, or anyone who values separate living and sleeping areas. The room type is listed with beds: 1 King Bed and 1 Queen Sofa Bed.
- Separate living room with sofa and chairs
- 1 King Bed plus 1 Queen Sofa Bed
- Best for long stays, remote work, and small in-room gatherings
- Typically located on higher floors for skyline views
| Feature | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Separate living area | Keeps work and sleep areas separate |
| Sofa bed | Adds flexible sleeping space without booking a second room |
| Skyline windows | Larger window area for city or water views |
2) Executive Suite — best for meetings and small groups
The Executive Suite has a living area and dining table that work well for a private meeting or family meal in-room. It is described with beds: 1 King Bed and 1 Queen Sofa Bed, so it can sleep extra guests without connecting rooms.
If you need a spot to meet a few people privately (phone calls, spread-out paperwork, or a quick group meal), the Executive Suite is a practical alternative to booking two standard rooms.
- Dining table or meeting-style seating
- 1 King Bed + 1 Queen Sofa Bed for extra sleeping flexibility
- Good choice when you want a hotel-provided meeting area without renting a boardroom
| Best for | Why |
|---|---|
| Small business meetings | Dining table and separate seating create a work-friendly layout |
| Families with older kids | Sofa bed lets parents use the king bed and kids use the sofa bed |
| Long stays | More living space than a standard room |
3) Room, Corner — best non-suite option for views
Room, Corner is available with 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds; corner placement typically means more windows and a wider angle on the downtown skyline. For photographers or skyline-watchers, corner rooms usually deliver the best city vistas short of a suite.
Corners can also feel quieter because they share fewer walls with neighboring rooms; choose a king if you want the single-bed layout and a queen option if you need two beds.
- Options: 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds
- Wider window exposure than standard rooms
- Good balance of view and value compared with suites
| Room setup | Best when |
|---|---|
| 1 King Bed | Couple or single traveler wanting a view |
| 2 Queen Beds | Friends or family sharing a room |
| Corner placement | Maximizes window angle for photos and skyline views |
4) Room (High Floor) — best for quieter stays and higher outlook
Room (High Floor) uses the same base layout as other standard rooms but is assigned on higher levels, which reduces street noise and usually improves view quality. Choose this if you want a higher elevation without paying a suite premium.
Available in 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds configurations, it’s a common choice for business travelers who want a quieter room for calls and sleep.
- 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds available
- Higher floors reduce street noise and improve skyline/water sightlines
- Good middle ground between Standard Room and corner/suite upgrades
| Why upgrade | Typical benefit |
|---|---|
| Higher floor | Less street noise |
| Better views | Improved skyline or distant-water sightlines |
| Same room footprint | Lower cost than suites |
5) Standard Room — best value for basic downtown stays
Standard Room is the baseline option and is offered with 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds. If you plan to spend most of your time out exploring downtown or attending events at the nearby convention center, a Standard Room covers the essentials: bed, desk, bathroom, and free in-room Wi‑Fi.
Expect a practical room layout used primarily by business and convention guests; upgrade only if you need extra living space or better windows.
- 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds
- Free in-room Wi‑Fi included
- Best for short stays or when you prioritize location over in-room space
| Good for | Why |
|---|---|
| Short business trips | Practical room and desk space |
| Budget-focused travelers | Lowest-priced option among room types |
| Convention attendees | Close to the Washington State Convention Center |
6) Room (Shower) and Room, Bathtub — pick by bathing preference
If bathing setup matters to you, choose Room (Shower) for a walk-in shower or Room, Bathtub for a tub. Both room types come in 1 King Bed or 2 Queen Beds configurations, so your bed choice doesn’t force a particular bathing fixture.
The hotel lists both options so you can request the bathroom layout that fits your needs — useful for travelers with a preference for soaking baths or for those who need an easier-access shower.
- Room (Shower): walk-in shower layout
- Room, Bathtub: tub for soaking or families with small children
- Both available in King or 2-Queen setups
| Room type | Best if you |
|---|---|
| Room (Shower) | Prefer a quicker rinse or easier accessibility |
| Room, Bathtub | Want to soak or bathe young children comfortably |
| Either | Are flexible and focused on bed configuration instead |
7) Room, Corner vs. Suite (Regency) — quick comparison
If you must choose between a corner room and the Regency suite, think about how you’ll use the space: choose Room, Corner if you mainly want the best single-room skyline view for a lower price; choose Suite (Regency) if you need room to work, entertain, or sleep extra guests comfortably.
Both options place you near the hotel’s downtown location at 808 Howell Street, convenient for convention center access and walking to central Seattle attractions.
- Room, Corner: better single-room view for less money
- Suite (Regency): separate living area and sofa bed for flexibility
- Both: free in-room Wi‑Fi and close to the Washington State Convention Center
| Feature | Room, Corner | Suite (Regency) |
|---|---|---|
| View | Strong (corner windows) | Best (larger window area) |
| Living space | One-room layout | Separate living area |
| Sleeping flexibility | 1 King or 2 Queens | 1 King + 1 Queen Sofa Bed |
