| DINING |
| The Hunt Club - This intimate restaurant, among the most acclaimed in Seattle, serves inspired Northwest cuisine with a Mediterranean influence and complemented by an extensive wine list. With deep wood paneling, sensuously flavored foods, and twinkling candlelight at dinnertime, it’s no wonder that the Hunt Club is the setting for close to 100 marriage proposals each year. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. |
| Fireside Room - Without question one of the most gorgeous public rooms in the city, the octagonal Fireside Room is the perfect place for quiet chats and light dining by the crackling fire. Original paintings by Morris Graves, plush wingback chairs and couches, gleaming mahogany-paneled walls, and rich tones of russet, ruby, and gold create a warmly inviting ambience. The focal point is the fireplace with its antique tiled pottery mosaic depicting an Italian landscape. The Fireside Room offers light dinners and a formal afternoon tea daily. In the evenings, a musician plays jazz tunes on the baby grand piano. Hunt Club Bar - This long, lean bar with comfortable banquette seating is a fine place to sip a smooth martini. Piazza Capri - Open during the summer season, the Piazza Capri is reminiscent of sidewalk cafés in Italy. The Piazza is located by the courtyard fountain and features an Italian menu inspired by Harry’s Bar in Venice. |
| SERVICES |
| What to expect: The hotel caters to a clientele of executives, vacationers from around the world, and well-known names in the arts and entertainment industry. It’s also a favorite among local couples desiring a romantic weekend of fine dining at the hotel’s Hunt Club, perhaps an evening at the theater, and plush accommodations away from the hectic tempo of workday life. Amenity highlights: The Sorrento was meticulously restored in 2002, retaining classic European ambience while adding modern comforts, and this Seattle landmark has gotten only better with time. With Honduran mahogany walls, plush couches, and wingback chairs, the octagonal Fireside Room just beyond the lobby invites quiet chats with refreshments by the crackling fire. For guests who wish to venture out and explore the city, the Sorrento provides complimentary chauffeured town-car service to leading local attractions. Insider tip: The walk up the steep hill from the downtown core is less than 5 blocks, but it’s an invigorating workout. And whether guests prefer to explore the city by foot or via the complimentary town car, there’s no better way to soothe muscles and revive spirits afterward than a Shiatsu massage by one of the Northwest’s master practitioners and teachers, Yasuo Mori. Mr. Mori's studio is located on the main floor of the Sorrento, discreetly down the hall from the lobby. Because of high demand, it is advisable to book appointments two weeks in advance. |
