✨Staying in old and timeless hotels is always a unique experience✨ do you agree? 🙌🏼🏨 During my time in Seattle, I stayed at @hotelsorrentoseattle and it was a wonderful experience 🥰 my absolute favorite moment was spending time in the Fireside Room. The fire place and the ambience took me back in time and it was such an interesting feeling! ✅vintage rooms & suites - no rooms are decorated the same way. Room 408 was absolutely stunning with pieces in the room that took me back in time. Some say this room is haunted so you know that there is history to be seen and heard here 👀 ✅fascinating backstory - with 115 years in the history books, it’s always fun to look back and learn what the hotel went through and why it is the way it is today ✅timeless atmosphere - the majority of the hotel has the look and feel of times in the past. In particular the lobby and the Fireside Room. You can see the wood structuring all over and it’s truly beautiful to see Would you stay at Hotel Sorrento in Seattle? ✨🏨 #hotelsorrento #seattlehotels #seattle #washington #seattlewashington #besthotels #hauntedhotel

Ever dined with ghosts? 👻 Stella Italian Restaurant is nestled in one of the most haunted places in Seattle - Hotel Sorrento. And I had the most unforgettable experience dining on their patio ⛱️☀️ Let me first mention the food. Their mouthwatering burger 🍔 —juicy, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor is a must. And you have to get a beer with that to make it a perfect combo 🔥 my favorite was a plate of rich, creamy pasta which was absolutely delicious. Every bite was a delight! 🍝 The patio is simply gorgeous, with a cozy atmosphere that’s perfect for a relaxing brunch or dinner ✨ but here’s where it gets interesting: Hotel Sorrento is rumored to be haunted and Stella is nestled right within! 🤯 guests have reported ghostly encounters and mysterious happenings that add an eerie charm to the dining experience 👻 Imagine savoring your meal while feeling the supernatural presence around you. It’s a mix of delicious food, beautiful setting, and a spooky vibe that makes for a truly unique night out 😈 Ready for a hauntingly good meal? Check out Stella at Hotel Sorrento and dine with the ghosts! 🌙🍝🍔👻 #seattleeats #seattlefood #hotelsorrento #seattle #seattlefoodie #seattlerestaurants #historichotels #exploreseattle #hauntedseattle #seattlefoodscene #seattledining
