Once you've landed
Once you're on the ground, rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, plus taxi services and rental cars, are readily available.
If you'd rather use public transit, Sound Transit's Link Light Rail 1 Line will bring you directly from SeaTac Airport to Westlake Station, only a block and a half away from The Westin Seattle.
To ride the light rail, you can purchase tickets via ticket kiosks at the airport's light rail station, or you can buy your pass in advance by downloading the Transit GO Ticket app, available for download in the App Store and Google Play Store.

Finding your hotel
If you're a Marriott Bonvoy member, good news! The Westin Seattle, our 2026 location, is a Marriott hotel. There is a FYUZ room block with limited space, so be sure to book your room early!
If you're loyal to Hilton, Hyatt, or another hotel chain, there are plenty of options within walking distance of the venue. Check the map below to see some of our recommendations.
Don't forget your rain gear*!
The first week of November in Seattle is typically mild (around 55-60°F, or 12-15°C), with occasional rain. Mornings are cool, and afternoons can warm up quickly.
*Pro Tip: Locals rarely use umbrellas — they’re considered the official badge of the visitor. Dress in light layers with a rain jacket, and you'll be comfortable all day.
