Fodor's Expert Review Shafer Baillie Mansion Bed & Breakfast

907 14th Ave. E, Seattle, Washington, 98112, USA

The opulent guest rooms and suites on the second floor are large, with private baths, antique furnishings, Oriental rugs, huge windows, and lush details like ornate four-poster beds; third-floor rooms, while lovely, have a more contemporary country feel, but still have private baths and large windows. Downstairs, guests have plenty of room to lounge and enjoy round-the-clock snacks, coffee, and tea in the library and salon of this gorgeous Grand Tudor Revival mansion, steps from Capitol Hill's Volunteer Park. The expanded continental breakfast includes the standards plus extras like smoked salmon and prosciutto, conveniently served over an extended period of time.
