The Hotel Sorrento on First Hill opened in 1909 and remains one of Seattle's grand old hotels. Its best-known ghost is the author Alice B. Toklas, who lived in Seattle as a girl and is said to appear near Room 408, dim the lights and move drinks in the Dunbar Room; guests also feel a presence by the green-tiled fireplace in the Fireside Room. The stories are not tied to any tragedy, and Toklas had moved away before the hotel opened, so the link is lore.
Working hotel with a lounge and restaurant; the lobby and Fireside Room are open to visitors.
