Hyatt Regency Seattle, Hotel skyscraper in Denny Triangle, Seattle, US
Hyatt Regency Seattle is a 45-story rectangular hotel tower in the Denny Triangle, clad in white panels with a dense grid of small square windows running up to its flat roof. The shaft rises from a wider, lower white base of several floors, with a band of glass between base and tower. Inside are 1,264 rooms, two restaurants and 103,000 square feet of meeting space.
The site was a Greyhound Lines bus station, bought by Richard Hedreen in 1995. A 2008 plan for a 51-story hotel was cancelled during the Great Recession; Hedreen bought the rest of the block in 2012. Demolition of the terminal began in September 2015, and the 45-story hotel opened on December 10, 2018, costing $470 million.
The hotel functions as a central meeting point for large gatherings, demonstrated by hosting the American Library Association conference in January 2019.
The hotel sits within walking distance of bus stops and light rail stations, making it convenient to reach by public transportation. Guests will find multiple restaurants and a convenience store on-site for their daily needs.
The hotel's 45 floors make it the largest hotel in the Pacific Northwest, with 1,264 rooms. Its site was a Greyhound bus terminal until demolition began in September 2015; the terminal had moved to SoDo near the Stadium light rail station in 2014.
