Seattle is an exceptionally kid-centric city thanks to its plentiful activities and family-friendly hotels and Airbnbs. It’s a place where orcas breach within sight of skyscrapers, boats zip around the waterways, and the smell of salt air mingles with freshly caught—and tossed—fish. The compact footprint makes mountains, islands, and the Puget Sound easy to reach for people of all ages, and the 485 green spaces double as playpens and backyards, from Discovery Park’s bluff trails to Seward Park’s lakeshore loop. And while Seattle’s attractions are always a delight to the littles, from the dizzying heights of the Space Needle to the tasty treats at Pike Place Market, its lodging options can be just as exciting, with mini-me spa days, music-inspired suites, Seattle-themed stuffies, and more. Whether families are interested in waterfront luxury or a sports-friendly location near the city’s main stadiums, there are plenty of family-forward properties in this city that deliver on service, style, and playfulness. Read on for 11 of the best family-friendly hotels in Seattle.
