Hotel 1000
Seattle, Washington, United States · Unbound Collection · Core Luxury
Hotel 1000 rose in 2006 on a First Avenue block shaped by the Klondike Gold Rush building boom that followed the Great Seattle Fire of 1889, a few doors from where Warshal's Sporting Goods ran a bait-and-tackle shop for decades. A 2017 renovation wove that fishing history into the interiors, with wavy shelves referencing water and portraits of local fishermen, while an indoor golf simulator gives the 120-room hotel a distinctly Pacific Northwest answer to the region's rain.

History
Hotel 1000 opened in 2006 at 1000 First Avenue, the intersection of First Avenue and Madison Street in downtown Seattle, as a purpose-built luxury hotel designed to embed itself in the character of one of American urban life's most distinctive cities. The site has a history that runs back to the decades after the Great Seattle Fire of 1889, when the Alaska Gold Rush drove a building boom along First Avenue that produced the surviving historic blocks, the Globe Building, the Beebe Building, and the Hotel Cecil, immediately to the south of the Hotel 1000 site. By the mid-twentieth century the block included Warshal's Sporting Goods, a Seattle institution that operated a bait and tackle shop on the site and whose 1936 fishermen's culture later influenced the Hotel 1000's own restaurant design when Loews undertook a renovation in 2017 that paid tribute to the site's fishing history with portraits of fishermen and wavy shelves referencing the natural motion of water.
The 24-story building opened under the Hotel 1000 name as a 120-room luxury property at the intersection that places it equidistant between Pike Place Market to the north and Pioneer Square to the south, two of Seattle's most consequential historic districts, with views of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains to the west. The hotel's virtual golf simulator became an early distinguishing amenity, an indoor response to the Pacific Northwest climate that drew guests year-round. The BOKA Restaurant and Bar brought Pacific Northwest cuisine to a dining room that looked across the waterfront.
Thayer Lodging Group and Provenance Hotels held the property until 2016, when New York-based Loews Hotels and Company acquired it for $83.5 million, renamed it Loews Hotel 1000, and undertook the renovation that introduced the nautical and fishing references to the interiors while retaining the property's fundamental character as Seattle's most technologically integrated luxury address. The hotel subsequently joined IHG's Unbound Collection, aligning it with the brand's portfolio of independent-spirited properties in destinations of character, a fitting home for a hotel that has always understood that its greatest asset is its city.
