CIVIC HOTEL SEATTLE
Our family welcomes you to Civic Hotel Seattle, a vibrant and intimate boutique hotel that combines the polish of a luxury property with the comfort of your neighborhood hangout. One of the few family-owned and operated properties remaining in the Emerald City, the Civic Hotel was reborn in 2019 from a design originally conceived for the 1962 World’s Fair. We honor Space Age optimism with our own spirit of innovation. Join us as we build our own “world of tomorrow.”
World of Tomorrow
Inject a nouveau warmth into the streamlined aesthetic of the hotel’s mid-century design — allowing us to adapt the original construction (built in 1962) to our modern needs while maintaining the integrity of the building’s ethos.
Home for today.
Civic Hotel’s central location – at the intersection of 7th Avenue and Harrison St. – is steps away from the Space Needle and mere blocks from Pike’s Place Market and Seattle’s downtown shopping district. We are surrounded by shops, restaurants, and nightlife that offer and ideal introduction to our city. And for travelers looking to explore a bit more, we’re also a convenient gateway to Seattle’s diverse neighborhoods, flavors, and experiences.
Home for today.
We have taken care of all the details. From the comforts you expect – bespoke minibar offerings with the best local fare, luxury bath and body products from Five Wits, a gallery-style collection of commissioned original art from local artist Melanie Biehle, and seriously comfortable plush pillowtop mattresses. To the conveniences that surprise you – abundant in-room charging for your abundant devices, Apolis tote bags for your shopping excursions, and eco-friendly water refillers on every floor. Each of our 53 rooms and suites on our property embodies our version of hospitality – classic luxury, irreverent formality, curated modernity – equal parts new age creativity and old-world elegance, served with unconventional, unapologetic attitude and style.
Now You Know.
We partnered with some of our best friends, and Seattle’s brightest minds, to introduce you to local artists, makers and products before you even leave the hotel. Discover Melanie Biehle’s stunning urban abstractions on a self-guided gallery tour – from your room to the elevator. Stay out of the (occasional) rain in style with Certain Standard’s colorful and sustainably manufactured umbrellas. Customize your minibar with Theo’s fair-trade, artisanal chocolates, Glassy Baby’s hand-blown votive candle holders, and DRY Soda’s naturally flavored and botanically inspired beverages. Or reserve the Macklemore Room, which pays tribute to Seattle’s legendary music scene, and imagine yourself in the music video he filmed there.
Boldly Go.
