Arctic Club Hotel to become Doubletree
Seattle's Arctic Club Hotel will become part of Hilton Hotel's Doubletree franchise in May.
The Arctic Club Hotel in downtown Seattle will become part of the Doubletree Hotel chain owned by Hilton Hotels. It will be renamed the Doubletree Arctic Club Hotel Seattle in mid-May.
Owners have entered into a franchise license agreement with Hilton Hotels Corp. which operates the Doubletree brand, according to The Hotel Group, the Northwest company that manages the Arctic along with 24 other hotels nationwide.
Changes will include new signage and conversion of the full-service JUNO restaurant from an upscale menu to what the group describes as "urban casual dining."
The 120-room hotel (www.arcticclubhotel.com) opened in July of last year as a 120-room hotel in a historic early 20th century building that was the headquarters for a men's club, the former Arctic Club.
The Hotel Group will continue to manage the Arctic. No changes are planned to the building's historical appointments including its Polar Bar lounge and Northern Lights Dome Room, a meeting room with a stained glass dome.
