But the view itself was anything but small.I booked a room at the five-star hotel for one night in May. It wasn't my first Four Seasons stay, but it was my first time in Seattle — and it was my first time sleeping in a corner suite with floor-to-ceiling windows stretching across two walls.In the nearly $1,000-a-night room, I had better views of Seattle than at any viewpoint I ventured to during my three-day trip. And the best part was that I didn't even have to leave my bed to see it.The Four Seasons Seattle is a top-choice hotel for travelers who want to be steps from the waterfront.Four Seasons SeattleThe Four Seasons in Seattle opened in 2008. Located downtown, it's the perfect place to stay if you want to walk to the waterfront or Pike Place Market in five minutes or less.The hotel has won many awards, including being named the No. 1 hotel in Washington by US News & World Report in 2024.

If you stay in a corner room like I did, you'll have constant views of the bay and downtown Seattle.Four Seasons Seattle.I stayed in a Corner Deluxe Bay View King room with a starting rate of $965 during peak season, from May to September, and during the end-of-year holidays. BI received a media rate for the one-night stay.The lobby was modern and classy, with natural hues and pops of pink.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderWhen I checked in, I noticed dazzling pink bouquets that looked vibrant in an otherwise neutral-toned lobby. And the pops of pink didn't stop there — by the elevators, there were complimentary pink refreshments of the same color, including strawberry jelly beans and gummy bears, rose lemonade, and monochrome M&Ms.Once I checked in, I headed to my home for the night.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderThe 21-story hotel has 147 rooms on the first 10 floors and 36 residential units on the top 11.My room was on the 9th floor.

Floor-to-ceiling windows took up the better half of two perpendicular walls.My room had a king-sized bed and a small couch across from a TV atop a dresser. There was also a table with two cushy dining chairs.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderThe hotel rep told BI that the rooms, updated in 2019, were inspired by the natural elements of the Pacific Northwest."You'll see that in the colors and textures, like the blues and the grays. Being Seattle, we're a little bit on the darker side, so they tried to lighten it up with some lighter elements of color," he said. "You'll see a lot of natural wood in our building to add that element of nature."My favorite aspect of the interior design was the textured wallpaper behind the bed. It looked like clouds with a mix of cool and warm hues. The decor was subtle, as the outdoor views were the star of the room, but I thought the wallpaper added a dreamy touch to the sleeping space.At the front of the room was a spacious closet and plenty of amenities.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderInside the closet, I found a luggage rack, an ironing board, a safe, and an umbrella for the city's signature rainy weather. Next to the closet, there was a minibar.Across from the closet, a sliding door revealed the marble bathroom.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderThe bathroom had a deep soaking tub across from a sink and vanity with a small TV screen integrated into the mirror.The bathroom had a tub and a spacious glass shower with a rainfall showerhead.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderThe bathroom also had L'Occitane Almond toiletries.The best part of the room was undoubtedly the views.Joey Hadden/Business InsiderNothing felt more luxurious than watching the sunset in this lavish room from multiple angles.
