Tacoma’s Hotel Murano Celebrates International Glass

Now you may not have to travel to Venice to enjoy Murano glass. The new Hotel Murano in Tacoma, Washington showcases more than 45 glass artists from around the world. From its exterior entrance where Costas Varotsos, internationally renowned artist, has created a large-scale masterpiece of glass called "Orizon" (horizon in Greek), to the lobby and the guest rooms, this hotel surrounds its guests with glass masterpieces.

Conveniently located in Tacoma’s newly rejuvenated downtown, the hotel is just 20 minutes from Sea-Tac International Airport, and 15 minutes from Seattle, yet only a few steps away from the museum district and the theater district, and immediately adjacent to the Tacoma Convention Center. It’s definitely unique in the Northwest due to its art inspired design and its magnified focus on personal guest services, offering all the comforts of home as well as a spa and salon, a lobby bar and its restaurant, BITE.
