A new art-centric hotel is making its way to downtown Seattle.
Hotel Westland, a boutique lifestyle hotel, will open in spring 2025 in the heart of the city’s RailSpur micro-district.
Located in the charming Pioneer Square neighborhood, RailSpur is a block of adaptive reuse historic buildings that has become a lively community and cultural hub in the Emerald City. Developed by real estate developers Urban Villages and managed by Aparium, Hotel Westland’s rich history will be at the forefront of the property’s design as the original 1907 structure will remain intact.
With architecture from Miller Hull and interiors designed by Curioso, the hotel’s color story will be reminiscent of the hues found throughout Pacific Northwest landscapes. Rich blues and greens adorn the 120 guestrooms and will mimic the tones of Washington’s wildlife-filled waters and lush greenery, while warm textile finishes, patinated metals, natural brick and exposed timber pay homage to the building’s original architectural expression.
Art is also at the center of the hotel, with a thriving art program spanning across the property’s vibrant lobby, and beyond. A robust collection of 328 Pacific Northwest-inspired works have been carefully curated by art production house ARTXIV to give guests a deeper look into Washington’s vibrance and charm. In summer 2024, the company debuted its art collection that is to be featured in the hotel with exhibitions at at RailSpur’s 419 Occidental Ave building and the Seattle Art Fair. 30 commissioned artists spent three months working on hundreds of original pieces that show just why Seattle is a known as a city for creatives.

“Pioneer Square has deep history and roots as a center for the arts and it’s been special to develop a space where artists can collaborate and be inspired by their surroundings, creating artwork for the hotel on site that reflects a sense of place,” Jon Buerge, President of Urban Villages, said. “This art production studio and resulting collection serve as an example of how developers and creatives can work together to cultivate the next vibrant community, and we’re excited to bring together the best of art, design, culinary, and hospitality at Hotel Westland.”
The hotel will feature Pioneer Square’s first-ever rooftop bar and restaurant, with jaw-dropping views of the Puget Sound and Seattle skyline.
