Not just home to tech monsters, Microsoft and Amazon, Seattle has a surreal art side as well. Seattle offers an urban framework with a wide range of extraordinary nebulous visions.

Here’s a list of the 8 best places to stay in the amazing city of Seattle.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities.
