Make the Most of Your Auburn Stay

A gateway to the Pacific Northwest

Auburn positions itself strategically between Seattle and Tacoma, offering travelers a practical base with direct Sounder train access to both cities in under 40 minutes. The downtown area reflects thoughtful urban renewal, where the 1924 Masonic Temple's Italian Renaissance Revival terracotta facade stands alongside the repurposed 1937 post office, now the Postmark Center for the Arts. This isn't a destination that tries to compete with Seattle's energy—instead, it provides a quieter alternative with genuine regional character and surprisingly convenient connections.

Entertainment anchored by the Muckleshoot Tribe

The Muckleshoot Casino Resort dominates the local landscape as the Pacific Northwest's largest gaming floor, with Smoke & Cedar, a rooftop steakhouse offering Mount Rainier views. Emerald Downs brings thoroughbred racing to the region, while The Outlet Collection Seattle draws shoppers to over 130 retailers. Beyond these major draws, you'll find the 22-acre Soos Creek Botanical Garden and the White River Valley Museum documenting the area's evolution.

Practical considerations

Auburn's location 10 miles from Sea-Tac Airport makes it accessible via rideshare or shuttle. The city works well for travelers seeking value-oriented accommodations while maintaining access to Seattle's business districts via commuter rail.
