Seattle Waterfront Lodging
I have yet to see a sunset sinking over a bay that doesn't strike a chord in me. As it is, sunsets over ocean, bays, and inlets are for me the most masterful creation of the divine. And I am quite positive the majority of humankind shares my outlook. That or you wouldn't be here seeking for some Seattle waterfront lodging that allows the best waterfront views of Puget sound or Elliot Bay, views so breathtaking that can't be rivaled anywhere all over Seattle.
The only problem with waterfront accommodations that it might not be sitting directly over the most frequented sites (your most frequented sites). Even then, some locations are only walking distance away. So, take a pick: Seattle accommodation downtown for easy accessibility or Seattle waterfront lodging and be treated with the most royal bayside views. If you choose the latter then read on for my most recommended Seattle waterfront lodgings.

I do have a poor inclination for hotels. But if only hotels are as good as The Edgewater Hotel, then maybe I'd be staying more on most of them. The Edgewater Hotel is as good inside as it is on the outside. Gone is the usual vintage furniture or those modern stuffs that stereotypically frequent on most hotels. In its place are those that make every home comfortable: usable items and out of the blue furnishings: Books, a unique set of figurines, a personal touch of someone here and there. Even as wondering where a specific tabletop figurine came from you will still welcome the rare feature.
While you may still experience nature's gift to Seattle at the comfort of your own room, nothing still beats walking up the harbor up close. After all, you're visiting this place for that reason. Whether on a business trip, a solitary travel, or a family vacation, always take time enjoying these extravagances up close; it may be your fondest memory yet.
