I was in Seattle the last few days participating in an Angel Capital Education Foundation Meeting. It has been over 10 years since I had been back and I had forgot how beautiful it was. I stayed at the Hotel Monaco, a Kimpton Hotel. I stay at a Kimpton every chance I get since all of them are so unique. I spend 100 nights a year in a hotel and they all look the same after awhile. But each Kimpton property has its own Art Deco and Zen character- Two things I really like. Their service is always extraordinary and they do not nickel and dime the traveler with internet charges, etc.
