Seattle Convention Center

North America’s first high-rise convention center is gorgeous, and you can see our apartment close by in the sweeping views of the city. If you're coming for a conference at the Washington State Convention Center, including the spectacular new Summit Convention Center building, we’re right in between both.

A fun way to visit Victoria, BC from Seattle. The ride on the Clipper is about 2 hours and 45 minutes. It’s about 1.5 miles from our apartment, so if you have luggage a quick taxi/uber is the best way to get to and from this location.
