Another hotel that takes advantage of Seattle's prime waterfront real estate, the Marriott has views of Elliott Bay from most rooms (half have balconies). For the best views, book the north tower. The elegant lobby has cascading Italian chandeliers, walnut detailing, glass-tile mosaic floors, and back-lighted walls of fused onyx and glass. Afternoon tea is served in the gallery, a breezeway that joins the lobby with Todd English's Fish Club Restaurant.
