The only hotel on Lake Washington's shores provides contemporary accommodations overlooking the water, a courtyard, or the street. Rooms are done in shades of café au lait, taupe, and ecru; some have balconies looking out to the water. The cheaper Marinaview rooms offer a fine middle ground, but the Creekside rooms overlook an office park. A circular staircase, descending from the lobby to the Library Bar, passes a huge bay window with a panoramic view of Lake Washington. Waters Bistro serves Pacific Rim cuisine, with dishes such as lemongrass steamed clams, and grilled halibut with roasted onion-ginger relish.
