From Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA)
The Edgewater does not run a dedicated airport shuttle. The most direct options from SEA are taxi, rideshare (Uber/Lyft), private car service, or rental car.
Travel time by car typically ranges from about 25 to 35 minutes depending on traffic. Westbound and downtown traffic during morning and evening rush hours can add time, so allow extra time for flights that arrive during peak periods.
- Taxi or rideshare: door-to-door to 2411 Alaskan Way, Pier 67 (request Pier 67 / The Edgewater Hotel).
- Private car service or airport shuttle service booked independently — the hotel accepts credit/debit cards at check-in.
- Rental car: drop-off at downtown locations or drive yourself; The Edgewater offers valet parking only (overnight valet is charged).
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | Most direct; varies with traffic |
| Private car service | Pre-book for meet-and-greet; useful for groups |
| Rental car | Valet parking only at the hotel |

From Downtown Ferry, Clipper and Cruise Terminals
The Edgewater sits on Pier 67 next to Pier 69 (Victoria Clipper) and is a short walk to the Bell Street Cruise Terminal at Pier 66 — the hotel is one of the closest downtown hotels to those docks.
If you arrive by Washington State Ferry (Colman Dock / Pier 52) or the Victoria Clipper (Pier 69), you can walk along the waterfront to the hotel or take a quick taxi/rideshare.
- Bell Street Cruise Terminal (Pier 66): about a 3–5 minute walk to The Edgewater.
- Victoria Clipper (Pier 69): steps from the hotel — very short walk along the waterfront.

From Downtown Transit: Light Rail, Monorail and Buses
Westlake Station (Link light rail/monorail hub) is about a 15–20 minute walk from the hotel. Walking follows the waterfront route and can be faster than transferring multiple buses.
Local buses stop near 3rd Ave & Pine St and elsewhere downtown; check Seattle Metro schedules for current routes and times.
- Light rail: disembark at Westlake Station then walk west toward the waterfront (allow ~15–20 minutes).
- Monorail: from Seattle Center to Westlake, then walk along the waterfront to Pier 67.
- Buses: use nearby downtown stops (for example, 3rd Ave & Pine St) and plan for a 10–20 minute walk depending on which route you take.

|---|---|
| Link light rail / Monorail | Walk from Westlake Station to Pier 67 (15–20 minutes) |
| Local bus | Use downtown stops and walk west to the waterfront |
