SEATTLE
Destination Hotels & Resorts has announced the opening of its newest property, Motif Seattle.
The new hotel is located in the heart of vibrant downtown Seattle between Pike and Union streets, becoming the city's largest independent hotel. With a new name and a revitalized brand, Motif Seattle boasts an entirely fresh and memorable guest experience all inspired by Seattle's uniquely progressive culture. The chic, upscale hotel will officially be unveiled on June 14, 2014, and continue to be managed by Destination Hotels & Resorts.
As part of its innate offering, Motif Seattle will work with local designers on an ongoing basis to create distinctive experiences throughout the hotel. The first such designer, Jordan Christianson of Jonquil & Mr Black, has created an exclusive pattern that is experienced throughout the hotel – from textiles to ties, letterhead and amenities.
Seattle-based architecture firm, Ankrom Moisan, was selected to manage the Motif Seattle design and architecture. This visionary team carefully impressed local flare into each corner of the property, including locally sourced wood paneling, native artwork and digitally interactive spaces that entice and engage guests and locals alike. The Motif Seattle brand concept will be ever evolving with the colors and vibe of the seasons of Seattle.
To create this cosmopolitan hotel, Destination Hotels & Resorts embarked on a multi-year, multi-phase renovation. Features include a 10,000 square-foot Executive Conference Level, a VIP Executive Boardroom, the opening of urban contemporary Frolik Kitchen + Cocktails – featuring the largest outdoor patio in downtown Seattle – and the renovation of all 319 guest rooms, 10 suites (five Executive, one Presidential, four Family), the grand lobby and front entrance.
Motif Seattle, by Destination Hotels & Resorts, is an upscale independently branded hotel inspired by the area's rich fashion, arts and music scenes. Located in the heart of downtown Seattle on Fifth Avenue between Pike and Union streets, Motif Seattle offers 319 guestrooms and 10 suites with sweeping views of downtown, the waterfront and the Olympic Mountains. In the center of the city's energy and culture, Motif Seattle is surrounded by the city's finest restaurants, shopping, entertainment venues, museums and attractions.
