Space Needle Seattle
Space Needle SeattleWe arrived in Seattle on Thursday and checked in to the Best Western closest to the Space Needle (200 Taylor St) This hotel is very close to the Space Needle which is why we choose this hotel plus we are reward card holders at this chain. We secured a cab at the hotel and headed to the wharf where we had dinner at Ivar's. The dinner was good (the NW platter which was a fried combination of salmon, cod, shrimp and scallops) my husband's was very good (salmon with roasted blue potatoes). On our next trip though we will pick the restaurant closest to the ferris wheel with the blue umbrella's outside, as the specials there looked great and more reasonably priced.
The ferris wheel ride was great. Looking at the city was nice seeing it in a different perspective high above. It's best to get a seat on the right of the gondola since it has the best view. If you are on the left side you have to turn around to see the city.
$ Notes:
ferris wheel ride - 13.95 ea
Ivars - >22.00 + >wine 26.00 +
Cab-hotel to wharf - 8.00
