Common description

Ideally located on the seam of Seattle's trendy Belltown neighborhood and the thriving retail district, the Hotel Andra is at the epicenter of the city. Originally built in 1926, this classic brick and terra cotta building was thoroughly recreated in 2004 to become the Hotel Andra. Reflecting a progressive attitude, as inspired by the surrounding neighborhood of Belltown, with its artist studios, galleries, boutiques and restaurants, the hotel offers travelers a unique and stylish hotel alternative in downtown Seattle. The Hotel Andra's design celebrates the strong elements of the Northwest - water, woods and stone - along with Scandinavian design influences. Stepping into the hotel's living room, guests are surrounded by distressed plank floors with inset custom wool hand-knotted rugs, warm walls, and rich brown woods. Arne Jacobsen swan chairs in hot orange, and minimalist accent lighting complete the relaxed, yet progressive attitude. The dramatic lobby fireplace, constructed of local split-grain granite, is surrounded by floor to ceiling golden maple bookcases and topped with a floating steel-wrapped plasma screen projecting an ever changing collection of electronic fine art.
