EXPERIENCE SEATTLE…SAFELY

Non-essential travel is still discouraged but we know that many of us are fighting cabin fever. Should you find yourself here, rest assured we’ll make you feel at home. Please note: King County has moved to Phase 2 of a 4-phase re-opening plan. For details on what is permitted in each phase, please see our Travel Advisory.

We look forward to promoting travel soon. Until then, know that we are patiently preparing for your visit.
