During your Seattle vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Seattle Central Library
It isn't often that the library is considered one of the coolest joints in town, but Seattle's new downtown library, opened in summer 2004, is such an architectural wonder that it has been the talk of the town. Now, not all that talk has been positive -- but I'll leave it to you to decide whether you love it or hate it. There doesn't seem to be any middle ground with this giant glass cube and its diamond-patterned steel girders and strange angles. Regardless of your reaction to architect Rem Koolhaas's design, you can't help but notice that in a town known for its gray skies, this library abounds in natural light. There are also colorful spongy chairs, floors of bamboo and brushed metal, carpets printed to look like plants, and a garden designed to meld with the carpets. Oh, and if you need to use the Internet, this place has hundreds of computer terminals, too.
Woodland Park Zoo
Located in north Seattle, this sprawling zoo has outstanding exhibits focusing on Alaska, tropical Asia, the African savanna, and the tropical rainforest. The brown-bear enclosure, one of the zoo's best exhibits, is a very realistic reproduction of an Alaskan stream and hillside. In the savanna, zebras gambol and giraffes graze contentedly near a reproduction of an African village. An elephant forest provides plenty of space for the zoo's pachyderms, and the gorilla and orangutan habitats are also very well done. There's even a large walk-through butterfly house ($2 additional fee) during the summer months. Don't miss the giant Komodo dragons from Indonesia. A farm animal area and petting zoo are big hits with the little ones.
Russian Attack Submarine
This Cold War-era Russian submarine is berthed just south of Washington State Ferries' Colman Dock at the south end of the waterfront, and the long black submarine is an ominous sight on this touristy stretch of Seattle shoreline. The sub, code-named Cobra, was built in 1972 and was in service for 20 years. After watching an introductory video, which provides a bit of background on Russian submarines, you board the sub for a self-guided tour of the main deck. An audio recording explains what you are seeing as you walk through. For anyone who lived through the Cold War, it is thrilling just to be inside a sub that was once considered "the enemy."
The Mediterranean Inn
Don't be fooled by the name: This is not a bed-and-breakfast-type inn. But this modern apartment hotel in the Lower Queen Anne neighborhood is located just a couple of blocks from Seattle Center and makes an ideal choice for longer stays in the city. Because the Mediterranean Inn is fairly new and because it was designed with travelers in mind, its rooms are much more comfortable than those at the nearby Inn at Queen Anne. Although all units here are studio apartments, some have beds that roll back toward the wall to form a couch. We prefer the more standard rooms. A Starbucks is just off the lobby.
Pensione Nichols
It's never easy finding economical downtown-area lodging with character, but that's exactly what you'll find at this European-style B&B, located in the heart of Pike Place Market. It's a popular choice with younger travelers and families. The budget-priced units with shared bathroom are all on the third floor of the building, and though most of the eclectically furnished rooms don't have windows, they do have skylights. However, most guests spend their time in the comfortable lounging area, with huge windows overlooking Elliott Bay. If you want to splurge, the two suites are quite large and have private bathrooms and windows with water views. Be prepared to climb a lot of stairs.
Salisbury House
Located on tree-lined 16th Avenue East, this grand old house has a wide wraparound porch from which you can enjoy one of Seattle's prettiest residential streets. Inside, there's plenty to admire as well. Two living rooms (one with a wood-burning fireplace) and a second-floor sun porch provide great spots for relaxing and meeting other guests. On sunny summer days, breakfast may even be served in the small formal garden in the backyard. Guest rooms all have queen-size beds with down comforters; one has a fireplace and a whirlpool tub, while another has an old claw-foot tub. Breakfasts here are deliciously filling and might include fresh fruit, juice, quiche, fresh-baked muffins or bread, and oatmeal pancakes.
