WHO WE ARE
Hotels done differently. At Aparium, we believe in the power of People, Place and Character.

Our hotel is a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities where we operate.
Nestled in the heart of Pioneer Square, Hotel Westland is poised to make its grand debut in the summer of 2024, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the breathtaking renaissance of the Railspur District. This historic building, originally constructed in 1907 as the Manufacturers Exchange Building, built of sturdy brick and heavy timber is a testament to the craft of the hands that built it - merging and weaving the historic narratives of the great continental railways and the bustling seaport of Seattle.
This soon to be iconic 120 room boutique houses three distinct food & beverage outlets, King Tide, a rustic and refined take on Pacific northwestern cuisine, Open Forum, a progressive and popular rooftop bar highlighting the best views south Seattle has to offer, and a modern juice bar offering goods on the go and a selection of curated local offerings. Elevated amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center and meeting spaces designed for socializing, co-working, creating, eating, drinking, and relaxing.
The hotel brings together world travelers and neighbors alike while showcasing Seattle's rich legacy and knack for innovation through thoughtful touches from local businesses and artisans. The Railspur development links the history of Pioneer Square with Seattle's posture towards progress and purpose, all converging and connecting in Seattle's first neighborhood.
The hotel is managed by Aparium Hotel Group. Founded in 2011, Aparium is driven by the belief that all hospitality experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings and was born with an intense focus on unearthing the amazing moments unique to every city.
