A very "Seattle" hotel near the Corn's condo with fun pictures of celebs as war heroes. Click on "website" below to go to the block of rooms!
Beautiful waterfront rock and roll themed hotel in a great location downtown!
Air BNB and VRBO are another great option and may be more economical than hotels for families/groups. All of the neighborhoods are great- Wallingford, Green Lake, Queen Anne, etc.
I'd recommend steering clear of the University District if possible for housing. There are great restaurants and bars there! Just more of a college kid vibe
