Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Murano

Named for the Venetian island where some of the world's best glass is created, this handsome high-rise hotel with an intimate ambience centers around exhibits by world-famous glass artists. Bold colors and sleek metals infuse public spaces with style and energy, and each floor exhibits a different glass artist's pieces. Amenities include minibars stocked with local beverages, Bluetooth radios, and plush robes. The stark, chrome-and-glass Bite Restaurant sits spectacularly above glass creations in the hotel atrium and serves refined contemporary Pacific Northwest fare.
