Thompson Seattle is a boutique hotel in Seattle, Washington, United States. Part of the Hyatt's Thompson brand, it opened on June 1, 2016. The 12-story four-star hotel has 152 rooms and five types of suites. It is located in Downtown Seattle and is a block uphill from Pike Place Market. When it opened, Thompson Seattle originally was owned by John Pritzker's Commune Hotels & Resorts. Hyatt became the owner in 2018. The architectural firm Olson Kundig designed Thompson Seattle, which is part of a mixed-use development that includes 95 serviced apartments. The hotel has a geometric glass outer structure and floor-to-ceiling windows from which guests can see the Olympic Mountains and Puget Sound's Elliott Bay. The hotel was built on a former parking lot by Turner Construction. Hotel rooms follow the mid-century modern design and have a masculine aesthetic. Rooms offer different kinds of views including of the water, the courtyard, and the city. The Nest, a rooftop bar on the 13th floor, provides views of the city and Puget Sound, offering cocktails named after birds and small bites. Scout, which opened in 2016, was a restaurant at Thompson Seattle that offered a woodland cabin-inspired atmosphere and a menu focused on Pacific Northwest ingredients. It ceased operations in 2019 for a complete overhaul. In its place, Conversation opened later that year, offering a menu with international and regional cuisine and encouraging in-person interaction. The hotel has a tiny, no-frills gym and a concierge service.
