Room, Balcony (Over Water)

This room at The Edgewater Hotel sits on pilings over Elliott Bay at Pier 67, so the private balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows look out over the water. The Edgewater is billed as Seattle's only over-water hotel, and this category puts you right in that setting.

The room has one king bed dressed in premium bedding and sleeps 2 guests, which makes it a natural fit for a couple or a solo traveler. Rollaway or extra beds can be added for a surcharge, and connecting rooms are available on request for groups travelling together.

The room measures 350 sq. ft. It is arranged around the king bed, with a desk, the gas fireplace and the windows toward the bay, plus a partially-open bathroom and a balcony.

Yes. The category name says it: a private balcony over the water. It lets you step outside to the sound and air of Elliott Bay, and the same view carries through the floor-to-ceiling windows indoors.

The partially-open bathroom has a shower, towels, a hair dryer and free toiletries. The open design suits couples.

A gas fireplace (every guest room at The Edgewater has one) suits cooler Seattle evenings, and air conditioning keeps the room comfortable on warm days. There is also a coffee and tea maker, a minibar and refrigerator, a safe, an iron and ironing board, a desk and a phone. Entertainment is a TV with cable channels, premium channels and pay movies.

The taxable Daily Amenities Fee of $34 per room covers complimentary Wi-Fi, fitness center access, use of Edgewater ZYBRA bicycles, a complimentary two-hour Orangewood guitar rental, a daily local newspaper at the front desk, local phone calls, and record players and albums. The 24-hour fitness center is on the 2nd floor, with free weights and cardio equipment.

On the property you will find Six Seven Restaurant and Lounge and The Brim Coffee Shop, and limited-hours room service is available.
