Washington State is big. This state encompasses a stretch of the Pacific Coast; the vineyards around Walla Walla; the ski grounds of the Cascade Mountains; hip foodie centre Seattle; arty Tacoma; and the spectacular and peaceful San Juan Islands - for starters. So it’s got a wide variety of accommodation, even at the five star end, what with the luxury ski chalets, beach resorts, remote spa hotels, and fantastic city grande dames. Washington State has five star hotels for families, and couples seeking romance, and for folk who just like to stay in beautiful surrounds with wonderfully attentive service.
