During your Seattle vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Japanese Garden
Situated on 3 1/2 acres of land, the Japanese Garden is a perfect little world unto itself, with babbling brooks, a lake rimmed with Japanese irises and filled with colorful koi (Japanese carp), and a cherry orchard (for spring color). A special tea garden encloses a teahouse, where on the third Saturday of each month between April and October, you can attend a traditional tea ceremony ($10). Unfortunately, noise from a nearby road can be distracting.
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 Space Needle
From a distance it resembles a flying saucer on top of a tripod, and when it was built for the 1962 World's Fair, the 605-foot-tall Space Needle was meant to suggest future architectural trends. Today the Space Needle is the quintessential symbol of Seattle, and at 520 feet above ground level, its observation deck provides superb views of the city and its surroundings. Displays identify more than 60 sites and activities in the Seattle area, and high-powered telescopes let you zoom in on distant sights. You'll also find a pricey restaurant, SkyCity, atop the tower. If you don't mind standing in line and paying quite a bit for an elevator ride, make this your first stop in Seattle so that you can orient yourself. There are, however, cheaper alternatives if you just want a view of the city.
Sorrento Hotel
With its wrought-iron gates, palm trees in the entrance courtyard, and plush seating in the octagonal lobby, the Sorrento, which first opened its doors in 1909, has a classic elegance and old-world atmosphere. All of the rooms were recently renovated, making them every bit the equal of the elegant lobby. The guest rooms here are among the finest in the city: No two are alike, and most are set up for business travelers. Although more than half the units are suites, many provide little more space than you get in a standard room. The hotel boasts commanding views of downtown Seattle from its setting high on First Hill, yet downtown is only a few (steep) blocks away (and there's complimentary limousine service if you don't feel like walking). Ask for a room on the west side of the hotel, where you'll have a view of the city and Puget Sound. The hotel's dining room is a dark, clubby place; in the lounge, which has live jazz piano, you can get light meals, afternoon tea, and cocktails. Cafe tables are set up in the hotel's courtyard in the summer.
Grand Hyatt Seattle
If you're accustomed to staying in only the very finest hotels, book your room here. Luxury and technology merge at this downtown accommodation, which is also the most up-to-the-minute, business-savvy hotel in Seattle. A Willem de Kooning sculpture outside the front door and a spacious lobby full of regionally inspired glass art set the tone the moment you arrive. However, unless you spring for something pricier than the basic "deluxe guest room," you're going to be a bit cramped; the least expensive rooms here are definitely designed for solo business travelers. Each of the rooms and suites is equipped with three phone lines, complimentary high-speed Internet access, two dataports, and an in-room safe large enough for your laptop. The health club is well outfitted, but there's no swimming pool, which means that families might want to opt for the Fairmont instead.
Mercer Island Travelodge
Located in the affluent Eastside suburb of Mercer Island, which is reached via the I-90 floating bridge, this motel is old but well maintained. Unless it's rush hour, the Travelodge is very convenient to downtown Seattle, which is about 10 minutes away. There are several restaurants and cafes within a few blocks, and right across the street is a walking/biking path that crosses the island and then continues across the floating bridge. Families traveling on a budget, take note: This motel has a special kids' room.
