A second 1,767-square-foot ballroom, Halo, can be configured as four small meeting rooms, while two boardrooms round out the group space.Amenities include the Otium Grill & Greens restaurant; a rooftop bar and lounge with views of the Seattle skyline (opening in August); and a fitness center with Peloton bikes, weights, and Life Fitness equipment. Caffe Ladro, a staple of Seattle celebrated coffee scene, has an outpost in the lobby.
