 The
2008 Pacific Northwest Film Scoring Summer Intensive
will be held at the conveniently located Executive Hotel
Pacific, located at 400 Spring Street, Seattle, WA 98104,
across the street from the Seattle Public Library. We have
secured a special group room rate and reserved a block of
rooms again for this year's program.
Please note that spaces are
limited! You must reserve early to guarantee a hotel reservation.
After spaces are gone, you will have to secure your own
accommodations in Seattle.
Hotel rooms for Summer Program participants cost $139.00
plus tax per standard King or standard two-bed double occupancy
per night—amazing summer (high season) prices in the
very heart of downtown Seattle. To obtain our special
group rate, you must book your accommodation choice when
registering for the Summer Intensive program through our
Web site. First come, first served for this great rate,
which we are able to offer until May 28th, 2008. Seattle's
hotel rooms sell out during the most desirable months of
July and August, so if you wish to arrive early or stay
later, please register as soon as possible so we can confirm
that we are able to get your extended stay secured.
If you are interested in staying overnight,
please indicate your check-in and check-out dates when you
register for the program so that your room night needs can
be secured (July is a very busy month in the spectacular
Pacific Northwest. Rooms will sell out). If you
share a room with another program participant, your pre-tax
cost will be $69.50. Please indicate this preference when
you register, and although we cannot guarantee roommate
availability, we will make every effort to locate one for
you.
For students who elect to stay at the hotel, additional
information will be communicated once we receive your requests.
Hotel Information
For more information on the Executive Pacific Hotel itself,
please visit ExecutiveHotels.net,
but please remember: For our special rate,
all rooms must be reserved through the PNWFSP
Web site, rather than directly with the hotel. Thank
you!
The hotel is a non-smoking hotel.
Parking is available at $21.00 for 24 hour self-park, and
$27.50 for hotel valet parking. For students who commute
daily, the self-park garage is located off of Madison Street
Exit. From the exit, proceed to the light, take a left to
6th Street (the next light). At 6th, take a right, and proceed
just a few blocks to Seneca Street and turn left--stay in
the left lane (Seneca is one-way heading west). The Olympic
Parking Garage is directly across from the Fairmont Olympic
Hotel. Our hotel is just around the corner on 4th and Spring.
If you are driving on 4th Avenue, and coming up Spring (one
way heading east), the garage has another entrance, which
is just past the Valet/Hotel entrance for the Executive
Hotel Pacific. There is an early bird special rate for parking
if you arrive by 9:30am.
Airport Transfer Information
For Airport Transfers, the least expensive way from the
airport is via Gray Line Downtown Airporter which offers
regular service from Seatac to downtown Seattle. The one
way fares currently start at $10.25 but are scheduled to
increase to $11.00 on March 17, 2008, compared with shuttle
vans at $27 one way, town cars from $30 one way and taxis
from $35 one way. You can buy your tickets on-line and for
additional savings, the round trip fare is $17, also scheduled
to increase to $18.00 on March 17, 2008. The website address
is: www.graylineseattle.com/airportexpress1.cfm For questions,
their phone number is (206)626-6088. For a recorded message
of their daily schedule, the phone number is (206)624-5077/(800)426-7532.
At the airport, you go to the Baggage Claim level, and proceed
out doors "00", just past Baggage Carousel 1.
The nearest downtown drop is at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel.
The website gives the Fairmont's address as 411 University
Street, but the good news is the pick-up/drop-off location
is on the Seneca Street side of the hotel, just one block
south of our hotel, on 4th Avenue. As you walk to the corner
of 4th and Spring (from 4th and Seneca), you will walk past
the W Hotel and at the end of that block is an SBC. The
Executive Hotel Pacific is attached to the SBC. The Airporter
provides daily shuttle service from 5:00am-11:00pm (from
Seatac beginning at 5:30am).
Tthere is complimentary wifi throughout the hotel.
