Hotels in Tacoma, WA

Just south of Seattle, Tacoma offers a grittier, more authentic slice of Pacific Northwest life. Its main draw is a stunning waterfront revitalized around the Museum of Glass, where you can watch artists work in the fiery hot shop under the iconic Chihuly Bridge of Glass. The city’s history comes alive in the massive timber-and-brick warehouses of the Thea Foss Waterway, now home to excellent restaurants and the Washington State History Museum. For a quieter escape, Point Defiance Park provides old-growth forest trails, gardens, and a zoo right on the water.

Tacoma suits travelers looking for an urban experience without Seattle’s intensity. Families love the hands-on museums and expansive park, while couples find easy romance in waterfront dining. The downtown core and the Stadium District, with its historic homes and local shops, are the most convenient areas to base yourself. Getting here is straightforward via Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, and the city’s Link light rail connects downtown to the Tacoma Dome station.
