A city steeped in history and natural bounty, Seattle was a logging town before turning into a shipbuilding center and then a hub of aircraft manufacturing with Boeing setting up shop here. In the 1980s it metamorphosed into a technological hub with Microsoft taking shape. This scenic city is also the headquarters of Alaska Airlines while internet retail giant Amazon was founded here. However, it is not all work and no play for Seattle! This versatile city, which is the largest in the state of Washington, has deep connections to the country’s music scene. From being the birthplace of rock legend Jimi Hendrix and bands such as Foo Fighters, and Nirvana, Seattle is also where jazz musicians like Ray Charles and Quincy Jones found their footing. Besides outdoor recreational activities, the city has a host of landmarks. Here are some of the best themed hotels in Seattle, Washington.
