Hotel Sorrento

"Old school opulence, all the way. Beneath thick ceiling beams, curvy-armed chairs surround a chintzy circle settee. With ample reading chairs and little nooks for relaxing over a cocktail or two, this storied Seattle lobby is a stone-cold charmer while the new restaurant, Stella, opened in 2021, embodies the hotel's coastal Italian theme. Each of the 76 rooms and suites at this seven-story hotel, first opened in 1909, has its own distinct appeal. But they all reflect the old-fashioned elegance of the Italian Renaissance–style structure, which took inspiration from a grand hotel in Sorrento, Italy (thus the name)." - Jessica Voelker, Naomi Tomky
