Busser

WHO WE ARE:

Palisociety is a society of unique hotels and residences - Palihouse, Palihotel, Le Petit Pali, ARRIVE by Palisociety, and a growing collection of independently branded properties. Since our first hotel opened in Los Angeles in 2009, we've grown into a nationwide portfolio of neighborhood-centric hotels, restaurants, bars, and event spaces, earning recognition from Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, the New York Times, and more.

We consider our employees our greatest asset: structured training from day one, consistent feedback, and a clear path for growth. We develop our leaders from within, because the strongest hospitality companies are the ones that grow their own.

ABOUT PALIHOTEL SEATTLE:

Location, location, location! Our intimate, fun, contemporary boutique hotel sits directly across from Downtown Seattle's famed Pike Place Market and the Elliott Bay waterfront - 96 thoughtfully designed rooms, our award-winning restaurant and bar, The Hart and The Hunter, and a lobby built to feel like a neighborhood living room for travelers and locals alike.

ABOUT THE HART AND THE HUNTER:

Palihotel Seattle is home to The Hart and The Hunter, a laid-back Americana diner serving elevated classics and easygoing cocktails. Established in Los Angeles in 2012, this family-friendly neighborhood spot near Pike Place Market is known for crave-worthy dishes like Smoked Corned Beef Hash, griddled sandwiches, and Pie à la Mode, alongside seasonal and classic cocktails.
