I had another fabulous stay at Hotel 1000, roughly one year after my last stay. A really world-class boutique hotel in the heart of Seattle, Hotel 1000 began with a seamless check-in to our room on the 5th floor. Room 510 was located in the western edge of the hotel with a view looking west.
It was a normal sized guest room but had a street view of 1st Ave. I had stayed in a suite before and this was a normal sized room. For the square footage, everything was laid out perfectly and the bathroom felt particularly expansive
While not large, the room was functional and beautiful. As with my last stay they have thick carpet and a very modern take on a hotel that is more than ten years since the last remodel. There was a large, comfy king-sized bed, a large bath tub and small shower area. The room was clean and well-kept.
Like my last stay, they continue to utilize top class bathroom products by Le Labo The bathroom was also great looking with extremely fine products by Le Labo. I think that you would find a similar quality bathroom product at the Ritz Carlton. The bathtub is modern and sits in the center of the room which really sets the room off nicely.
Last stay we had eaten at their hotel restaurant, All Water, which specializes in oysters and other seafood items. This time we chose to grab a cocktail at their pop-up bar in their lobby, Rosebay. The bartender there has formerly been at Rob Roy, an iconic Seattle cocktail bar. He made a beautiful drink that was on their spring menu with a red wine float. It was the perfect ending to the night as we climbed into the cozy kingsized bed and called it a night.
The next day we arose after a great sleep and had to head out before we could grab breakfast. All Water does serve some really nice breakfast including an excellent lox bagel. Hotel 1000 service was excellent. People answer the phone when you call downstairs. I think in terms of room quality and overall experience with their cocktail bar and restaurant, there are few other Seattle hotels who deliver this level of quality for an overnight stay. I think they could probably charge less for valet parking ($70.00 plus fees). However, if you want to stay somewhere great, centrally located in Seattle, I think that Hotel 1000 for the price rivals anything including The Edgewater or The Thompson. I’ll really look forward to my next stay at Hotel 1000.
