Seattle, Washington LEED Certified Green Hotel

Experience the natural high of eco-friendly luxury and hospitality at Seattle's greenest hotel. Hyatt at Olive 8 is the first hotel and condominium building in Seattle to receive the nationally-recognized U.S. Green Building Council certification. Our magnificent hotel has been certified as an LEED® Silver building since its opening in January 2009. As the first LEED building and hotel in Seattle, Olive 8 is a responsible and efficient place to live, work, relax and vacation.

Located within the Olive 8 building, the Hyatt at Olive 8 is proud to be one of 60 hotels in the country to be officially designated "green" by the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System™. Sporting a sleek glass exterior, stunning blue glass architectural elements and Seattle's largest living rooftop, the LEED building's dramatic, green design makes a lasting, positive impact on the Seattle environment and beyond.

Where do you fit into the green scene? Guests enjoy staying in a Seattle green hotel that is healthier for the environment and their pockets. Our hotel's sustainable practices improve our bottom line and we pass the savings on to you. With an energy savings of 23 percent and a water savings of 36 percent (about 2.4 million gallons each year), Olive 8 is the trend-setter for green hotels in the Pacific Northwest. We know you will love our brand of green hospitality and doing your best to safeguard Mother Earth.

The energy-saving and eco-friendly nature of our Seattle LEED certified building includes:
  • Low-flow plumbing fixtures use one gallon per minute less than traditional showerheads
  • Dual-flush toilets - use 29 percent less water
  • Low-chemical mechanical water system that uses less potable water
  • Landscaping maintenance that uses minimal city water. The use of native plant species and efficient irrigation systems results in a 99% savings from typical irrigation programs - a savings of about 24,000 gallons of water per year (in addition to the 2.4 million gallons saved in the building)
  • More than 95 percent of construction debris was diverted from landfill disposal to be recycled

Seattle's First LEED Hotel

The first LEED hotel for Hyatt Hotels Corporation, Hyatt at Olive 8 combines luxury service with environmentally sound hospitality. To conserve energy, rooms are equipped with Watt Stopper® technology that only allows lights to be on while guests are in the room, dual flush Toto toilets and Bricor® water-reducing showerheads. The hotel strives to meet stringent eco-friendly standards through all of its guest services, including environmentally friendly cleaning practices, an all "green" meetings and events package, and in-room recycling.

At Olive 8, all of our venues and services promote our message of sustainable luxury. Enjoy fresh, local cuisine at our restaurant - Urbane - featuring a seasonal, locally-sourced Pacific Northwest menu. Our eco-friendly Elaia Spa offers healing spas therapies using only local, organic ingredients.

Olive 8 is a stand-out in the Seattle community for its commitment to preserving the natural environment of the city and the planet. The hotel contributed nearly one million dollars toward the preservation of 284 acres on Sugarloaf Mountain in King County, as well as vital salmon habitat. This fall, the carbon footprint for Olive 8 will be reduced by 50 percent when the Seattle Steam Company, which provides heating for the building, will begin using mostly biomass as fuel instead of natural gas. Olive 8 also features preferred parking spaces for highly fuel-efficient vehicles and outlets for electric cars in the underground
parking lot.

LEED Green Buildings

The LEED Green Building Rating System was implemented to encourage the design, construction and operation of more sustainable buildings. LEED verifies environmental performance, occupant health and financial return, and was established for market leaders to design and construct buildings that protect and save precious resources while also making good
economic sense.
