The Kimpton Palladian Hotel in downtown Seattle proudly unveils its unique Pickleball package, marking a pioneering move as Washington’s first hotel to offer such an experience in the sport’s home state. With over 4.8 million players across the U.S., Pickleball’s popularity is surging, making the Palladian an ideal location for enthusiasts and novices alike. This exclusive package is available during three special weekends, offering a mix of opulence, culinary delights, and a deep dive into Pickleball culture.
Starting at $1,198, the package includes a two-night stay at the chic and service-oriented Kimpton Palladian Hotel. Guests will be treated to breakfast for two at the Shaker & Spear restaurant and can enjoy two complimentary cocktails at the Pennyroyal bar. The dates for this exclusive offer are August 23-25, September 27-29, and October 18-20.
“This initiative celebrates Pickleball’s rich history while underscoring our commitment to offering memorable and distinctive experiences for our guests,” said Dale Johnson, General Manager of the Kimpton Palladian Hotel. “We are delighted to offer this extraordinary promotion that combines luxury, history, and sport in a way that only Washington state can provide.”
A highlight of the package is a scenic ferry ride to Bainbridge Island, where Pickleball originated in 1965. Participants will experience a luxury van tour and a guided excursion around the island, hosted by certified PPR coaches and Frog Rock Pickleball Tour Company’s proprietors. The tour includes a 90-minute play session with local players at the original Founders Courts. Each guest will also receive a custom Palladian Hotel Pickleball paddle set, visors, and a tote bag as souvenirs. This bespoke package promises a memorable blend of luxury accommodation, sport, and exploration, crafted to ensure an unforgettable visit to the Pacific Northwest.
