Wondering what’s around Kimpton Hotel Vintage Seattle? A better question might be what’s not around. From our spot at the corner of 5th Avenue and Spring Street, the heart of the city’s retail and financial district, we’re just steps from spots like Pike Place Market, Benaroya Hall, the Seattle Art Museum, the Seattle Public Library, Safeco Field, Pioneer Square, and the Washington State Convention & Trade Center. For transportation options, your feet work great in the easily walkable downtown, and we’re also near the ferry terminal and dozens of buses. If you’re driving, there’s easy access from I-5, and those coming in from Sea-Tac International Airport can take the Central Link Light Rail, a shuttle, a taxi, or a ride-sharing service. (The light rail takes about 40 minutes and costs $3, while driving is about 20 to 30 minutes; prices vary based on the mode of transportation you use.) In short, your options for getting here and getting around are almost as endless as the potential activities in the immediate vicinity.
