Welcome to our beautiful bed and breakfast-the Chambered Nautilus in Seattle, Washington.Welcome to our front door and find beauty all around at the Chambered Nautilus in Seattle, Washington.
The beautiful gardens and deck of the Chambered Nautilus in Seattle, WA.Scallop Chamber:  The largest room in the house, this room was the former library of the Georgian colonial mansion. This room includes a dormer window view of the Cascade Mountains, and a private rear porch. The queen sized sleigh bed is the centerpiece of the room, a large, plush chair and a loveseat offer plenty of relaxing space. A private bath with tub and shower is included.

The room opens onto a large porch with a view to the mountains and down into the gardens below. Private bath is spacious, has a tub and shower and is detached, just outside the door of your room.
One of our beatiful rooms called the Northwest Chamber. Sitting on the northwest corner of the house, this sweet room has the cozy warmth of the Pacific Northwest, a queen oak bed with antique oak side tables, private bath with tub and shower, and a private covered porch overlooking the wooded hillside. The perfect place for an evening glass of wine while enjoying the "territorial view."  In Seattle that means the trees and rooftops, So quiet you can forget you are in the city.

An antique desk, and oak chairs makes this serene room the perfect quiet place to plug into the wireless and get some work done or just finish up your travel plans.

Crow's Nest Chamber: this room says romance like no other. Original eyebrow windows frame the queen iron bed, the perfect place to cuddle up with a companion while enjoying the warmth of the bedside gas fireplace. The comfy loveseat invites you to settle in with a good book while your partner gazes out at the view from the dormer window seat.

The décor of soft blues and greys adds light to this third floor hideaway, a rustic romantic look. Not looking for romance, the charm of this room will win you over anyway, the loveseat pulls out to a twin bed, enabling this room to accommodate a need for 2 beds, or a family of 3 traveling together.  Any one of you can enjoy a nice long soak in the clawfoot tub, soaking your cares away.
Sunrise Champber: true to its name this room is the brightest and lightest in the house. Facing east with a view to the Cascade Mountains you will awake to the morning sun from the depths of your comfy king bed and down comforter. Decorated with the crisp, blues, yellows and whites of provence this room brings out the sunshine even on a Seattle winter day.

White wicker chairs provide a sitting area in the spacious room. The perfect place for quiet conversation while sipping tea or eating a homemade cookie! The desk is great for working and the window overlooks the trees next door. The blues and whites continue to the tiled shower and cozy terry robes in the private bath.

The large private bath has a tub and shower and is centrally located between the 2 bedrooms.

Making up the sofa bed, or adding a crib or extra twin can make this a very family friendly accommodation.
