Business trips come with their special challenges – but finally, there’s a hotel built specifically to minimize those challenges. It’s citizenM – in a superb location in Seattle’s South Lake Union.
The 264-key, seven-story hotel at 201 Westlake Avenue North and John Street is ideal for business trips. Just steps from the front door are the South Lake Union Streetcar and bus stop. A short walk away: Amazon and Microsoft headquarters, Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, and the Washington State Convention Center. Guests flying in for their trip can easily hail a cab from the airport – it’s only a 16-minute ride (outside of rush hour) from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
citizenM Seattle South Lake Union hotel is not just a place to sleep, but to work, relax and play. Inside, there’s an oversized (always open) living room with Vitra furniture, museum-quality art and hundreds of books. In the middle, there’s a 24/7 canteenM serving everything from delicious breakfasts to late-night cocktails. Instead of a reception desk, a self-check-in kiosk – zero queues, no forms to fill out, key-in-hand in one minute.
The inspiring vibe of the living room is carried through to the one-of-a-kind societyM meeting spaces, each facing the street or neighborhood. Four stylish meeting rooms (the largest for up to 16 people) come with Vitra furniture, tech essentials, unlimited coffee, tea and water, stationery and walls to write on. The meeting rooms are bookable on AM, PM and all-day basis, with delicious local catering available by request with 48-hours notice.
Upstairs, citizenM’s philosophy of ‘affordable luxury’ is best experienced in the guest rooms. There’s only one room type – the perfect one – with everything a modern traveler needs, and nothing they don’t. The bed is always XL king-size, topped with the world’s fluffiest pillows. The shower is always jungle-like with full-size shower gel and shampoo. And the superfast Wi-Fi is free (everywhere in the hotel).
Cool extras include a smart TV with Chromecast and AirPlay to stream TV shows, music and films. An iPad to control the room’s ambience and entertainment – from the lights and blinds to temperature and TV. Guests can also download the free (award-winning) citizenM app to control all of these from their phone or smart device. On the iPad is citizenM’s exclusive Brainwaves moods – music-and-light compositions scientifically proven to alleviate the common stresses of travel: anxiety, sleeplessness and lack of focus.
Every room worldwide has a free digital series of unique workouts, from barre to boxing. Each one is 45 minutes and designed with Gymbox (a leading London gym brand) to complete in a citizenM room – no equipment needed.
