Boeing has Hilton Garden Inns hotels right at Everett field where the wide-bodies are made, and in Renton where the 737s are made. They're a sight to see because they seem very very out of place. But they do a steady trade in Boeing attendees coming in for training, as well as customers coming to negotiate, inspect, and pickup new planes. I got to play a private party in the Everett one, to celebrate a new plane delivery for a customer. The staff told they once had a super-rich Emir book out a whole floor and stay there for a few days while a private jumbo was being delivered. The idea of that happening at a garden inn amuses me.
