The Heathman Hotel in Kirkland experienced a main waterline malfunction on Friday that resulted in significant damage to the hotel, spa and restaurant.

As a result, the entire property will be closed until Aug. 1, allowing for repairs and renovations, said Les Utley, general manager.

In the meantime, the hotel will relocate all guests and groups to facilities nearby.

“As a commitment to our guests, employees and the community, we will be working with crews around the clock to reopen as quickly as possible,” said Utley in an email.

He added those individuals with reservations who need assistance with relocation may contact the hotel’s main number at 425-284-5800. Clients with corporate or private dining events are requested to contact their sales representative directly for assistance.

“We thank those who have reached out to us today and we are committed to bringing The Heathman Hotel, Trellis Restaurant and Penterra Spa back to full-service for our loyal guests as quickly as possible,” said Utley.
