11th Avenue Inn Seattle Bed & Breakfast

$ | 121 11th Ave. E, Seattle, 98102, USA Fodor's Choice

The closest B&B to Downtown offers all the charm of a classic bed-and-breakfast (exquisitely styled with antique beds and Oriental rugs) with the convenience of being near the action. The owner has impeccable taste, and even the small den that holds two public computers and stacks of travel guides, brochures, and laminated menus from the best local restaurants is thoughtfully arranged and decorated. Modest-size guest rooms all have private baths. A full breakfast is served in the elegant dining room. Don't worry about using the wrong fork, though—despite its formal appearance, the inn is a warm, laid-back place. All bedrooms are on upper floors with no elevators.

  • Oozes vintage charm
  • Wonderful owner and staff

Cons

  • Although most guests are courteous, sound does carry in old houses

Travelers seeking an authentic Seattle neighborhood experience will fall hard for this charming budget-friendly inn right in the heart of Ballard, tucked between coffee shops, trendy boutiques, and restaurants.

Other than the deluxe king rooms, the rooms use shared bathrooms. Two of the four suites have separate entrances for a private apartment-like feel.

Blue Elk Inn

$$$ | 500 Alpine Pl., Leavenworth, 98826, USA

Formerly the Alpen Rose, this inn just outside of town was renovated in 2020 by new owners, who upgraded the property with modern room amenities like 50-inch smart TVs, Keurig coffee makers, and gas fireplaces, along with enhanced outdoor features including a seasonal pool, year-round hot tub and treehouse sauna, firepits, and free bikes. Some rooms have balconies with views of the mountains, and others have their own firepit on the covered patio. The inn's exterior has Leavenworth's standard Bavarian look, but the rooms are anything but cookie-cutter, with a variety of layouts and decor.

Pros

  • All rooms are dog-friendly
  • 2- and 3-bedroom suites are great for families or groups
  • Some rooms with balconies or patios

Cons

  • Walk to town can be difficult in snow or hot weather
  • No on-site food service
  • Possible traffic and noise from new alpine coaster up the street

Boreas Bed and Breakfast

$$ | 607 N. Ocean Beach Blvd., Long Beach, 98631, USA

Tasteful antiques and interesting books fill this vintage 1920s beach house, where rooms have balconies or decks with ocean views, a jetted spa tub sits in an enclosed glass-and-cedar gazebo that looks toward the ocean, and a private path leads through the dunes to the ocean and joining the Discovery Trail.

Pros

  • Many eateries and shops are just a few minutes' walk
  • Extravagant three-course breakfasts
  • Close to the ocean

Cons

  • Not directly on the beach
  • Not good for families
  • In a busy part of town
