The Woodmark Hotel, Yacht Club & Spa is a personal and comfortable hotel on the picturesque shores of Lake Washington with unparalleled views of the Seattle skyline and the snow-capped Olympic Mountains. Just fifteen minutes east of Seattle and three miles from the tech corridor of Redmond, Bellvue and Bothell, the Woodmark is located in a tranquil setting that isn’t far removed from where you need to be.

The facilities

Each guest is greeted by the hotel’s resident Labradoodle, Woody, a friendly four-legged staff member who sets the tone for hospitable, warm and genuine service. Scenic grounds overlooking Lake Washington feature pathways that run through landscaped gardens. Guests at the hotel are allowed access to the Yacht Club and Marina, and tour the lake on kayaks and the Woodmark II, the hotel's 1956 vintage Chris Craft. The Northwest Face Spa at the Woodmark offers state-of-the-art skin analysis and rejuvenating treatments.

The rooms

Every room and suite is a lakefront residence equipped with luxurious extras. Plush bedding, including down pillows, feather beds and cashmere throws are standard, as are rain showers and separate soaking tubs in imported limestone bathrooms stocked with Molton Brown amenities. Guests are granted complimentary “raid the pantry” privileges, with access to late-night snacks and treats.
