Host Hotel

Updated January 17, 2017

Renaissance HotelThe host hotel for the Emerald City Hoedown for 2017 is once again the Renaissance Seattle Hotel!

Rates for 2017 start at $149+tax per night for double occupancy.  The room block expires March 2 (or when sold out, whichever comes first).  The hotel room block has limited availability outside the three main nights of the hoedown, March 23/24/25, 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.)

Please note that we have expanded the room block for 2017, but we may sell out again this year.  Adding to the block and accommodating special requests are much easier if reservations are made sooner rather than later!

All hoedown events — workshops, dances, and socials, including the Thursday night Trail-In dance this year — will be held at the host hotel, so staying at the Renaissance Hotel enables you participate fully in the hoedown activities.  This is the seventh year that the Emerald City Hoedown will be at this hotel, and they host events for numerous other GLBTQ organizations throughout the year.
