If you like culture, Queen Anne should be your first stop in Seattle. Home to the Pacific Northwest Ballet and the Seattle Opera, you can get your performance arts fix before heading to the more touristy spots, like the Space Needle—which is also conveniently located in the Queen Anne neighbourhood. You’ll enjoy shopping in Queen Anne, as the boutiques offer unique clothes you can’t find back home. Plus, the kids will go bonkers for the toys section at Stuhlbergs!

"It’s an old hotel with a lot of character. Front desk staff was excellent. Walls are super thin, I heard a conversation next door word for word. Also the bathrooms are tiny. But that aside, it’s close to everything and we felt safe and it was clean."
