During your Seattle vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Wing Luke Asian Museum
Despite much persecution over the years, Asians, primarily Chinese and Japanese, have played an integral role in developing the Northwest, and today the connection of this region with the far side of the Pacific has opened up both economic and cultural doors. The exhibits at this small museum, located in the heart of Seattle's International District and named for the first Asian American to hold public office in the Northwest, explore the roles various Asian cultures have played in the settlement and development of the region. Many of the museum's special exhibits are meant to help explain Asian customs to non-Asians. If you're walking around Chinatown, this place will give you a better appreciation of the neighborhood, but the exhibits tend to have a narrow range of appeal.
Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI)
If the Seattle Underground Tour's vivid description of life before the 1889 fire has you curious about what the city's more respectable citizens were doing back in those days, you can find out here, where re-created storefronts provide glimpses into their lives. Located at the north end of the Washington Park Arboretum, this museum explores Seattle's history with frequently changing exhibits on more obscure aspects of the city's past. While many of the displays will be of interest only to local residents, anyone wishing to gain a better understanding of the history of the city and the Northwest may also enjoy the exhibits here. There's a Boeing mail plane from the 1920s, plus an exhibit on the 1889 fire that leveled the city. MOHAI also hosts touring exhibitions that address Northwest history. Although not actually in north Seattle, this museum is just across the Montlake Bridge from the University District. Beginning in April 2005, the museum will have an exhibit on Lewis and Clark.
Children's Museum
The Children's Museum is located in the basement of the Center House at Seattle Center, which is partly why Seattle Center is such a great place to spend a day with the kids. The museum includes plenty of hands-on cultural exhibits, a child-size neighborhood, a Discovery Bay for toddlers, a mountain wilderness area, a global village, and other special exhibits to keep the little ones busy learning and playing for hours.
The Woodmark Hotel on Lake Washington
Despite all the lakes and bays in the area, Seattle has a surprising dearth of waterfront hotels, which would in itself make the Woodmark recommendable. But this resortlike hotel is so luxurious and in such a beautiful setting that it is the metro area's premier waterfront lodging -- and thus well worth the 20-minute drive from downtown Seattle. Surrounded by a luxury residential community, the Woodmark has the feel of a beach resort and looks out over the very same waters that Bill Gates sees from his nearby Xanadu. There are plenty of lake-view rooms here, although you will pay a premium for them. For less expensive lodging, try the creek-view rooms, which offer a pleasant view of an attractively landscaped little stream. Floor-to-ceiling windows that open are a nice feature on sunny summer days. The hotel's dining room is pricey, but there are several less expensive restaurants in the area. For cocktails and afternoon tea, there's the cozy Library Bar, which often has live piano music in the evenings. Guests can also go out for a complimentary cruise on the hotel's restored 1956 Chris-Craft boat.
Hotel Vintage Park
Small, classically elegant, and exceedingly romantic, the Vintage Park is a must for both lovers and wine lovers. The guest rooms, all of which are named for Washington wineries, are perfect for romantic getaways, and each evening in the library-like lobby, the hotel hosts a complimentary wine tasting featuring Washington vintages. Port is available later on in the evening. Throughout the hotel are numerous references to grapes and wine -- even the minibars are stocked with Washington wines. Rooms vary quite a bit here, but when you see the plush draperies framing the beds and the neo-Victorian furnishings in the deluxe units, you'll likely want to spend your days luxuriating amid the sumptuous surroundings. Deluxe rooms have the best views (including views of Mount Rainier), and although the bathrooms are small, they do have attractive granite counters. Standard rooms, though smaller and less luxuriously appointed, are still very comfortable, and surprisingly, the bathrooms are larger than those in the deluxe rooms.
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.
