Gorgeous new place on the block!!…read more Stunning new event space right in south lake union/ downtown with sweeping lake union views. Views alone were worth a trip or 4!! Came for the opening of this shiny new spot yesterday. A gorgeous 3,000 square foot event space that was completely remodeled: with in house catering, vendors, event planners, photo booths, musician! And the food. It was like going to a super fun wedding minus the formality of it. The owner was there as well: super passionate and shared the story of how she bought this space sight unseen: took a long process in turning this into a gorgeous space that it is now. It was super cool! And the food!! They allow outside catering too but the in-house catering: Kaspar catering : baos topped with micro greens and mint. Steamed to serve! Poke rolls :delicious! Panna cotta : in a cup! Lisa Dupar catering: this one was fantastic as I've had a chance to taste their food in the past at a wedding. The gorgeous cupcakes, macarons, molasses cookies and stunning cake. All were so pretty! Mark ryan wine! I mean, what's not to love as it's one of the wineries I frequent in Woodinville wine country. My pup baci's favorite too. Luxe Photo Booth: this one was so fun! The 360 Photo Booth!! I've seen them in Time Squares recently as well as at a valentines event. But this one was so much more fun as I didn't have to wait in line or fight the crowd for it. The person that was running it was super friendly and helpful too. The jazz musician was pretty rad too. And they had valet!! Butler Valet: All the friendly guys in uniform waiting for you as you arrived during rush hour in downtown: pretty darn cool. All events should be this cool. I'm only going to events with valet from now on! Ok thanks. Overall, this was such a fun place.I came to check out the space: left with all the food and fun.The space, the team, the design, the music!! And that Photo Booth: all are essential part of throwing an epic event. All events should be this fun!! I guess they will be if you throw them here: weddings, birthdays, corporate events, sweet 16th. I wouldn't mind coming here for a photoshoot: hello contents!!Or just a fun anything event.Did I mention the views?? Ahh the possibilities!!!

This was my first stay at the W Seattle. I was in town for a work training session being held at…read morethe hotel, so the location couldn't have been more convenient. My room was clean and comfortable. There was some visible wear in places, particularly around the shower tile, but nothing that affected the stay. The in-room safe had no power, so I reported that. I also appreciated receiving daily housekeeping service, especially since some hotels now skip days unless you specifically request it. On my first day, someone from the hotel emailed to make sure everything was going well. I replied with a few suggestions, including the issue with the safe. I don't know whether every guest receives that outreach, but it was a thoughtful touch. The one real miss was room service. Ordering was handled through a QR code, but I received an error when I tried to submit my order. Rather than keep troubleshooting it, I used DoorDash instead. Would I stay here again? Yes. The room was clean, the staff treated me well, and the hotel worked nicely for a business trip in Seattle.

There was a lot of vehicle noise throughout the day, including in the middle of the night that would wake me up. Additionally, the website and booking says that coffee and tea are available in the lobby, but this was nowhere to be found. On to the positives, the reception staff were incredible, especially Ray. He told us how to get the Seattle City Pass which was an incredible deal, as well as let us know about the Sea-Tac spot saver at the airport. The hotel offers complimentary tickets to the Great Wheel. The hotel is on quite the incline, which gave us a workout since we mainly walked around the city!

My husband and I were married at the Barn at Holly Farm in May 2019 (I meant to leave a review…read moresooner but life quickly got in the way). We worked with Karmel as well as a flower vendor (Dirty Girl) and photographers (GSquared) whom Karmel recommended. Part of the reason we were drawn to this venue is because of the good works that they do with equine therapy and rescued farm animals. Our experience with the Barn was fantastic. We really hit it off with Karmel and she made planning the wedding fun and low stress. The vendors she recommended also did a great job and at the end of the day, are just good people. I feel like they all connected with us on a personal level. One fun perk this venue offered is for a small fee someone from the Barn takes guests out to meet some of the animals (chickens, goats, llamas, etc.) during the social hour before the reception. This was a lovely and charming way to start the celebration. I think that what we paid was fair for the service we received. The only snafu at the very end was having to pack our own stuff even though we paid extra for the clean-up service, but it was mostly just our personal belongings and it wasn't a big deal. There's always a little wedding drama - in this case our own guests, and the way that Karmel and vendors went about handling it to reduce the stress on us was beautifully done. They were respectful and discreet and we were incredibly grateful for their support. The space itself on the day of the wedding was absolutely stunning and everything was set up exactly as we had planned. It was a truly magical day and I'm so glad we chose the Barn to get married. I'd do it all over again. :)

TERRIBLE venue management under the guise of a beautiful space…read more In short, three months after signing with The Barn at Holly Farm we were told management would rather start a year of self-initiated renovations than honor their contract with us. Their decision not only affected us, but at least nine other couples who had booked weddings there too. For my fiancé and me, this left us with less than 7 months before the wedding date to find a new venue and re-plan our entire event. It took over a month for us to find a new space that could accommodate our wedding size indoors. To receive a full refund, we were expected to sign a document that stated we wouldn't make any comments which "may, directly or indirectly, disparage" The Barn at Holly Farm (obviously we did not accept those terms). It then took over a month to receive the funds for The Barn's breach of contract. I hope no other couple has to experience The Barn at Holly Farm's mismanagement and the nightmare experience they caused at least 10 couples in 2021!

Phenomenal THE…read moreFIRESIDE ROOM The owners and staff who operate this hidden gem offer their clients a masterclass experience. We booked their space for a Repast for our Uncle on September 28. This was for 80 guests. The attention to detail and level of professionalism that was shown by this family owned team is nothing short of amazing. I honestly say without question that if you're in the market for the best event rental space experience this side of the Mason Dixie, look no further than THE FIRESIDE ROOM. Suzi and her staff WILL NOT disappoint you. My wife felt spoiled during the event. I honestly have nothing critical to say about this experience. I can only stress to all readers of this review how truly amazing this experience was and implore you to experience this for yourself. Book soon and often because that's definitely what my wife and I plan to do. To Suzi and team - I am sincerely grateful for the support and service you provided to our family during this somber time. I wish you continued success and look forward to seeing you soon for another event in the future.

A very special thank you to Linda Kress and Camila Ormachea, who were truly amazing throughout the entire process. They were incredibly supportive, patient, and easy to work with, always taking the time to answer our many questions and offering thoughtful ideas that made our day even better. Their guidance made the planning process feel smooth and stress-free. The food was delicious, and we received so many compliments from our guests about it. On the day of the event, all the staff were extremely attentive and detail-oriented, making sure everything ran perfectly. Overall, we had an excellent experience and could not be happier with our choice of venue. We highly recommend the World Trade Center for any special event.

My family attended a wedding here. I have no idea how the wedding planning is here, but attending…read moreone was fantastic! Amongst the family attending, we had several food restrictions. We'd made our orders and when the person with the most severe restrictions (dairy, gluten, and soy free) send in her RSVP card, she noted these requirements. We were the first to arrive at the reception of all the guests, since I am one of the few locals attending and I knew how to get around the 'under construction' primary route that both host directions and GPS directions wanted attendees to take. We were warmly greeted. When we mentioned one of our party had dietary restrictions, they already knew and she spoke with the kitchen manager to be sure everything would be good. The staff was excellent in keeping everything on a timely manner. The food was excellent. I abstained from the bar items, but everyone else seemed to enjoy their beverages. Three appetizers were served, a vegetarian spring roll with mint that was really good, a chicken with satay sauce, and a BLT slider. All items were liked by the people who had them. Ours was a plated dinner, with bread on the table (warm with a salty crust - delicious!), starting with a nice salad with a vinaigrette dressing. We had a beef meal with yummy mashed potatoes (my daughter's favorite part of the dish), a crab cake crusted halibut (best fish my husband has had in our year+ out here in Seattle), and the vegetarian ravioli. A lemon sorbet was served to cleanse the palate between salad and entree course. So classy! I've had that before, but I think this is the only time in my adult life I've attended an event with it. There is a balcony outside the 4th floor room and it was very nice to go out there to get a break from the noise. Because of the size of the room, the number of guests (about 60) and the DJ, the room was rather loud. It also had some temperature issues. A couple of us at my table were quite cold, but someone else mentioned it was really warm over by their table. The view is stunning!

Bar: total chaos the price is listed on the wall or not the price is you are charged I got two shots of Jamison for $45. 3. A/C this place is so hot. There's absolutely no way the AC is running. 4. Very crowded, the flow of foot traffic is so disorganized it's hard to go from one place to another. 5. Music: excellent. 6. This place is for a very young crowd. If you like a classier place, this is not the place for you. Don't come or plan to exit quickly. 7. There are water stations at the end of the bars so you don't have to wait for it. This is an excellent idea.

This place is poorly managed. The owner verbally promised that everything would be handled…read moresmoothly, but on the event day it was complete chaos. Other vendors were not allowed early access to the hall as agreed, which caused cascading delays across the entire program. Additionally, the hall was not fully cleaned--trash from the previous event was still present when we entered. The décor (done by French Creek Manor) was also not up to standard, and there were multiple issues throughout the event. When these concerns were raised, the owner refused to acknowledge that the problems were due to mismanagement. There was no accountability or effort to resolve the situation. I strongly recommend against hosting your event at this property.

The Rainier Chapter House was perfect for our Capitol Hill wedding reception…read more It's very charming - the main floor has a vintage sitting room vibe with fancy couches, rugs, and a piano, and the upstairs is basically a blank canvas with perfect white walls and beautiful hardwood floors. This allows you to really do want you want with the space! We chose to keep it pretty simple with just some floral centerpieces and it worked wonderfully. Peter and Karen were a joy to work with; they were excellent, quick communicators. As far as wedding/reception venues go in Seattle, this one was really well priced. Loved that tables/chairs/dishes/flatware were included in the price. The only things that may present slight issues are that there is no parking onsite (although lots of parking options close-by), and that the space is maxed out at 160 guests. We had 115 and I think it'd be too crowded to go much higher than that. There's also no elevator for older folks, but there's not too many stairs and they aren't very steep.
