Overview

Step into the past with updated historical exhibits, now featuring a fascinating collection of Smith Typewriters—an homage to the Tower’s namesake legacy.

Make your way up to the 35th Floor Observatory, where sweeping 360-degree views of Seattle await on the open-air deck. Then settle in for prohibition-inspired craft cocktails and shareable plates with friends or loved ones. And before you go, don’t forget to make a wish in the legendary Wishing Chair—it’s the perfect photo op to remember your visit to Smith Tower.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
