Downtown art boutique hotel built around a glass collection
Hotel Murano is a downtown art boutique hotel built around a museum-quality collection of international studio glass, a nod to Tacoma's identity as the City of Glass. It's steps from the Theater District, the Convention Center, and the Museum of Glass, with on-site dining and event space. It appears on World Rainbow Hotels' gay-friendly listings.
