Hotel Ändra, Seattle

2000 4th Avenue, Belltown, Seattle, WA 98121, United States of America (show on map)

Hotel Ändra is a chic boutique property in Seattle’s Belltown district that beautifully marries urban sophistication with Pacific Northwest comfort. Housed in a historic 1926 brick building, the property has a fascinating past; it originally served as efficiency apartments and even functioned as a transfer station for the Women’s Army Corps during the mid-1940s.

The hotel’s design is a thoughtful nod to Seattle’s deep-rooted Nordic heritage. Following a major renovation in 2004, the interiors were reimagined to feature clean lines, rich wood, and stone textures, creating an atmosphere of cozy, Scandinavian-inspired “hygge.” The rooms are equally refined, featuring custom cabinetry and furniture crafted in collaboration with Swedish artisans.

A standout feature is the hotel’s commitment to culinary excellence. It is home to Lola, a celebrated Mediterranean-inspired restaurant by legendary chef Tom Douglas. Guests can even participate in hands-on cooking classes at the hotel’s Hot Stove Society, which is one of the only recreational cooking schools in North America located directly within a luxury hotel.

Its location is incredibly convenient for exploring the city. You are just a short six-minute walk from the iconic Pike Place Market and within easy reach of the Seattle Aquarium, the Space Needle, and the bustling downtown waterfront. Whether you’re here for the local culture or the coastal scenery, Hotel Ändra serves as a stylish, quiet sanctuary perfectly situated to capture the best of Seattle.

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“A Downtown Scandinavian-themed boutique property with 119 guest rooms, two restaurants and a Northwest-meets-Nordic design aesthetic featuring Alvar Aalto-designed lounge chairs and stacked firewood beside the lobby’s large granite fireplace.”

Frommers review:

“The word ändra in Swedish means “change,” and change is what Hotel Ändra is about. The building dates from 1926, but nearly everything in this trendsetting boutique hotel—furniture, fabrics, even bathroom fixtures—comes from Sweden or Scandinavia and reflects a sophisticated and richly textured European aesthetic.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Seattle.

Fodors review:

“Modern Scandinavian style defines this 119-room luxury boutique hotel in Belltown. Ideally located for shopping, dining, and attractions, it’s also in the heart of a small foodie empire–several of celebrity chef Tom Douglas’ restaurants are right nearby, with Lola, a fan favorite, on the premises.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Seattle.

Telegraph review:

“Subtle Scandinavian design laces this 1926 brick and terracotta building in the trendy Belltown neighbourhood, close to the city centre. Highlights of the hip hotel include a cooking school and the restaurant Lola, both run by Seattle celebrity chef Tom Douglas.”

Enjoyable stay, mostly met expectations with some minor quirks.

We liked the layout of the room, how spacious it was, the extra sink in the room, the style of the furnishings, the approach to providing ice and staff tried to be friendly. The location was great too, close to a lot of dining options, transportation options and best of all, close to Pike Place Market.

I didn't like that there was a $100 a night hold on the credit card, this can be a lot if you are staying for a week or more. The switches for turning off lights can be confusing, we did figure it out in the end, but only after spending too much time pulling plugs out and testing every switch in the room to figure it out.

Excellent place to stay while in Seattle!

Location was great! The valet staff was terrific! The guest reservation staff was great as well. Love that there is a restaurant onsite, however, would have really liked more “standard” food. Wait staff in the restaurant was terrific though and they gave us a piece of the world famous coconut pie! Oh my! Incredible. We made sure to walk across the street and get an entire pie to share with our family. Great experience overall!

Great stay and super to have a bakery, restaurants and bar so close to hotel.

Room was spacious and comfortable with plenty room to put belongings. Bathroom was beautiful and toiletries were lovely. Shower bombs were a thoughtful and unique gift. Staff were welcoming and polite. It was easier to get the train to the airport from the hotel also!

Wonderful hotel and great location.

The location is great and the rooms are beautiful and comfortable. The staff was so nice and helpful and we especially liked the doorman.

I wish they had some type of vending machine for drinks and snacks.

Loved it. Except for watching a movie.

The beauty of the king size bedroom. The view. Everything.

Very difficult to watch anything… the app didn’t always connect with the screen.

Nicely Appointed Hotel

Very nicely designed and spacious room and nice lobby with attached bar/restaurant

The room was very nice and more spacious than expected so overall we really liked staying here and would stay again, but the bathroom sink area was small. It seemed expensive for a room that isn’t cleaned every day, and the front desk staff were friendly and welcoming but when we asked questions about places to go near by or alternative parking they weren’t very knowledgeable..

A diamond in a “rough” neighborhood

The check in and staff was exceptional! The front desk manager Piper is a gem. Extremely attentive, forward thinking and competent.
The King Suite is very roomy and comfortable.
Valet service is not cheap but very efficient and convenient.
Their pet policy is unmatched.

The location, while convenient, was rather noisy and riddled with a fair amount of homelessness.
The mattress is far too soft for my taste.
The restaurant is, in my opinion, not really worth the hype.

We will definitely be back. Beautiful accommodations, close to everything.

Close to everything! Beautiful room. Staff were nice. Excellent restaurants nearby. Fantastic shower. Robes were soft. Mattress a little too soft, but it was a comfortable bed. We liked the sofa and lighting was good.

The Nespresso machine didn’t really make a decent cup of coffee. Good for shots, but you need the Veruto machines to make a true cup of coffee. WiFi was bad. And I couldn’t get my phone to mirror to the TV. 👎👎 A sound bar would be a good inclusion. The lighting system was a little bit complicated.

Wonderful stay at the Ändra!

Love the room! Spacious and the bed was so comfortable. Location was great! So easy to walk to all of the spots we wanted to go to.
Great cafe across the street for morning coffee + breakfast. Can’t wait to come back!

The fitness room was the size of a shoe box. Don’t plan on using unless you catch it empty

Great choice for staying in Belltown

Big fan of the cozy room, and the couch— really changed the vibe to make it comfortable for a multi-night stay. Everything felt clean and warm, and the staff were both thoughtful and chill. Restaurant next store was great, and the art gallery across the street worth visiting!
