Alexis Hotel has always been an undeniably grand option for downtown Seattle lodging, but now the perks have expanded to fit an even wider range of visitors. Since this boutique hotel is a Kimpton venue, it goes without saying the service and quality here is top-notch, catering to guests' every imaginable need.
On their website, the Alexis explains the allure: "Just like our city's celebrated coffee, the Alexis is that perfect blend. In our case, we're equal parts stately historic structure and chic modern boutique. A mix of Kimpton warmth and urban cool. And because every great city needs a downtown diva, we filled the Alexis with works from some of the city's best-known artists as well as all the modern amenities you expect from a AAA Four Diamond hotel..."
Already-existing perks range from high–speed wireless Internet access (complimentary to Kimpton InTouch Guest Loyalty members) to a hosted evening wine hour and a fitness center with private steam room. Also explore dining and drinking options: try the Library Bistro for delicious food in a setting that's a bit more formal or the cozy Bookstore Bar, which also serves tasty dishes and boasts an impressive happy hour. The Alexis is a 100% non-smoking hotel as well as a pet-friendly venue with no fees or size restrictions.

So what are the newest draws? Every Thursday morning, the hotel now offers complimentary yoga at 7 a.m., and the honor bar now features a local beer option from nearby Pike Place Brewery. Also, throughout the entire month of December in honor of the upcoming holidays, the Alexis offers the ‘Christmas Suite’–rooms complete with a trimmed tree, "presents" underneath and stockings hung by the fireplace with care.
