A Brief Hotel History

It was renamed the Mayflower Park Hotel in 1974 after an extensive renovation by new owners who preserved much of its historic charm.
Today the hotel blends classic architecture, antique fixtures, and modern amenities while remaining one of Seattle’s most enduring and beloved historic properties.
