Host Hotel

Updated September 30, 2015

Renaissance HotelThe host hotel for the Emerald City Hoedown for 2016 is once again the Renaissance Seattle Hotel!

Rates for 2016 start at $145+tax per night for double occupancy.  The room block expires February 1.  (The hotel room block has limited availability outside the two main nights of the hoedown, March 4 and 5, but some room nights are available.  If you have difficulty obtaining rooms outside the main hoedown nights, contact us at info@emeraldcityhoedown.com and we will work with the hotel to see how we can help.)

All hoedown events — workshops, dances, and socials — will be held at the host hotel (except for the Thursday night trail-in dance, that is at the Century Ballroom on Capitol Hill), so staying at the Renaissance Hotel enables you participate fully in the hoedown activities.  This is the sixth year that the Emerald City Hoedown will be at this hotel, and they host events for numerous other GLBTQ organizations throughout the year.
