In the rolling hills of Washington’s wine country, a new chapter in hospitality is being written. The Somm. Hotel, a gleaming jewel in the crown of the Harvest development in Woodinville, is poised to redefine boutique luxury when it opens its doors in August 2025. As part of the prestigious Marriott Autograph Collection, this 164-room escape is more than just a hotel—it’s a declaration that refined living, gourmet indulgence, and immersive wine culture can harmoniously exist in one thoughtfully curated destination.
A Hospitality Milestone in the Heart of Wine Country
Nestled amid lush vineyards and the celebrated Sammamish Valley, The Somm. Hotel captures the essence of Washington’s renowned wine region while offering all the trappings of modern opulence. Each of its designer guest rooms and suites is crafted with intentional sophistication—interiors that echo the earthy elegance of the Pacific Northwest, large windows that draw in sweeping views of Mount Rainier, and curated amenities that blur the line between rustic charm and cosmopolitan comfort.
The hotel promises a holistic guest experience, beginning with its wellness center and full-service spa, where treatments incorporate regional botanicals and vineyard-inspired rituals. On the rooftop, an elevated bar experience awaits—guests can sip locally produced vintages as they gaze over panoramic landscapes, from the valley below to the snow-capped peaks in the distance. The hotel doesn’t just host guests; it welcomes them into a rhythm of life inspired by nature, craftsmanship, and community.
The Grand Opening: A Celebration of Culture and Craft
The Somm. Hotel’s unveiling will be marked by the highly anticipated return of the Auction of Washington Wines Gala. This landmark event, revered by wine aficionados and culinary elites alike, will transform the hotel into a showcase of Washington’s most prestigious vineyards and chefs.
A curated, two-hour wine tasting will precede a chef-driven, five-course dinner, where guests dine at tables hosted by legendary winemakers. The event not only celebrates the opening of a new hotel but signals a new cultural epicenter for Woodinville, blending philanthropy, celebration, and sophistication in perfect harmony.
A Venue Designed for Celebration and Connection
The Somm. isn’t just a place to rest—it’s a destination to gather. With over 10,000 square feet of versatile event space, the hotel is engineered for grand weddings, high-powered executive retreats, and immersive local experiences. From sunlit boardrooms with vineyard views to elegant ballrooms suited for gala evenings, each space is meticulously designed to elevate gatherings of any scale.
Its role within the Harvest community also means that events held at The Somm. become part of a larger, thriving ecosystem—where guests can stroll from ceremony to celebration, from wine tasting to retail therapy, without ever leaving the neighborhood.
The Yard: A Village Square of Culinary and Retail Delights
At the heart of the Harvest development lies The Yard, a 95,000-square-foot pedestrian-friendly plaza designed to be the neighborhood’s heartbeat. It’s here that wine bars, chef-driven restaurants, boutique retail stores, and vibrant gathering spaces converge to create a dynamic lifestyle destination.
Connected to The Somm. Hotel via a second-story bridge, The Yard ensures seamless access for hotel guests. Whether enjoying an early morning coffee, a shopping spree, or a glass of Syrah under the stars, The Yard delivers a daily rhythm of activity that balances energy with elegance.
River Run: Elegant Townhomes by the Trail
Just a short walk from The Somm. and The Yard is River Run, a residential sanctuary offering upscale townhomes designed for tranquility and taste. Homes range from 1,967 to 2,975 square feet, each featuring open layouts, rooftop terraces, and expansive windows that frame views of the Sammamish River Trail.
Already attracting buyers, with six homes closed and more move-ins underway, River Run offers rare proximity to both natural beauty and cultural vibrancy. Residents enjoy easy access to nearby tasting rooms, including views of Chateau Ste. Michelle, while still savoring the calm of a private, trailside lifestyle.
Vineyard Creek: Serenity and Sophistication in Single-Family Living
Adjacent to River Run, Vineyard Creek presents an exclusive enclave of 45 luxury single-family homes, ranging from 2,000 to 2,600 square feet and priced between $1.7 million and $2.2 million. These homes are designed for discerning buyers who prioritize sun-drenched interiors, indoor-outdoor flow, and architectural finesse.
With construction nearly complete and several homes already sold, Vineyard Creek stands as a testament to refined Northwest living. It’s the ideal balance between urban convenience and vineyard seclusion, making it a perfect complement to The Somm.’s hospitality ethos.
Alexan Woodinville: Luxury Apartment Living Redefined
For those seeking flexible, high-end rental living, Alexan Woodinville introduces a fresh alternative. With 230 design-forward apartments, including one- and two-bedroom layouts (many with dens), this development caters to modern lifestyles. Sleek interiors, premium appliances, and thoughtful finishes underscore its upscale appeal.
The amenities are equally impressive: a rooftop lounge with vineyard views, hibachi grilling stations, fire pits, a pet spa, and a fully equipped fitness studio with yoga and spin rooms. A co-working space, complete with private pods and meeting areas, positions Alexan as a haven for remote workers and digital nomads.
Harvest: A Master-Planned Vision for Wine Country Living
What sets Harvest apart from other developments is its unified, intentional design. More than a collection of homes and businesses, it’s a cohesive lifestyle ecosystem. Walking trails wind through vineyards and woodlands. Boutique storefronts blend into architectural surroundings. Every element—from The Somm. Hotel to the homes of Vineyard Creek—is placed with purpose.
The community pulses with opportunities for discovery. One could begin the day with yoga in the wellness center, linger over lunch with a winemaker at The Yard, and end the evening watching the sun dip behind the Cascades from a rooftop lounge. Harvest doesn’t just offer residence—it cultivates a way of life shaped by connection, leisure, and luxury.
By 2026, as the final pieces of Harvest are completed, Woodinville will not only be Washington’s premier wine destination but also home to one of the most visionary lifestyle communities in the Pacific Northwest.
The Somm. Hotel: A Gateway to the Future of Wine Country Travel
As travelers increasingly seek experiences that combine authenticity, sophistication, and comfort, The Somm. Hotel arrives at just the right time. It doesn’t attempt to overshadow the natural beauty and heritage of Woodinville—it enhances it.
Here, hospitality meets heritage, architecture blends with agriculture, and every corner tells a story of a community built to last. For wine lovers, design enthusiasts, event planners, or those simply in search of a remarkable escape, The Somm. is more than a hotel—it’s a destination within a destination.
And with Harvest’s evolution into a live, dine, stay, and play haven, visitors won’t just experience Washington’s wine country—they’ll live it.
