Great place to stay right in downtown. Rooms are quaint with modern fittings including large screen LED TVs. Plenty of cozy nooks around the hotel to sit and enjoy reading or chatting with friends. Unfortunately, no breakfast served, would be nice if they had a light option with boiled eggs fruit or other light low carb fare..

When I first entered the lobby of the Palace Hotel in Port Townsend, I felt like I had been transported to another time. The Victorian architecture and decor was remarkable. I tried to imagine the history of this place built in 1889 and lovingly restored. Excellent shops and restaurants within an easy walk. Don’t pass this up - the experience and memories will be the highlight of your vacation.

Stayed here overnight. Staff was nice. Hotel is interesting because its split into two parts. Lots of the hotel seems original, looks very victorian. On their websites, some rooms seem updated, however where we were located was "old-fashioned' with modern amenities like coffee pot and TV. Right downtown and across from the water and two great coffee shops.

Wonderful Stay in Port Townsend.

This hotel in downtown Port Townsend was wonderful! For being an older hotel it had been kept up really well and was so clean!!! The check in and check out process was very easy. Comfy beds and spacious rooms and bathrooms. The water views were nice as well I watched on otter play in the surf. The decor is nice and the common rooms are very cute. Parking was easy and free as well.

One night get away

Beautiful hotel room/ studio. All the dishes and utensils in the kitchenette to include pots/pans and coffee maker are brand new. Nicely remodeled! There is a ceiling fan, and two portable fans for use as well. One in the loft by the bed. Very very nice place to stay. The walk up to our room which is on the third floor uses many stairs, no elevator but it is doable. Not sure if you had bad knees or heart condition if you could do the stairs so I would make sure I knew what floor your room is on. I believe they start on the second floor, and there are some in the second floor where you go up stairs around the corner and then down a few flights of stairs to get to them. Very unique building. It has multiple sitting areas with books and games. Our kids would have enjoyed this place when they were younger too! We would stay here again! Lovely front desk lady Janet Marie!!
