Pros:

The hotel is an a great location and staff were friendly and helpful. The wifi was spotty but I was advised that they were looking into it. Something to consider if you're a remote worker or relay on wifi.

Charming downtown hotel with friendly staff and convenient location, parking, wifi, etc. Quite unique with delightful little touches throughout the place. True, lots of stairs. But not inconvenient. Perfect location in Port Townsend.

Pros:

This was a great little get away. The hotel was built in 1855 so don’t go expecting the amenities of a 5 star building but the ambiance, The history and the location more than make up for it. My wife child and I all had a great time and would stay here again.

Pros:

The room smells like pizza due to having a pizzeria downstairs. Cleaning lady gave us a spray which helped a little. Anyways ask for a room on the street side which may help with smell.

Pros:

Clean, lovely room, however, was fooled by the Expedia photos. Expedia shows a representative pic of a freshly remodeled loft and the room is an older Victorian room. Room is beautiful and clean but unexpected compared to Expedia site. They should show pic of a more representative room. Check in woman was wonderful and gave us the best restaurant recommendations.

Pros:

Our room reminded me of staying in an original Victorian flat in San Francisco. The hotel is historical with interesting features.
It’s located in a great walkable area but being some ear plugs if you don’t want to wake up to seagulls on an early summer morning!

Highly Recommend
Pros:

This hotel is the best location to most everything offered in Port Townsend. The staff was super helpful with all my requests and needs. The hotel is really old school in decor and design, which was pretty cool for a vacation stop. I highly recommend The Palace Hotel!

Pros:

Unique lodging experience- loved the Miss Kitty room- very spacious and a great view of the water. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The only challenging thing was lugging our luggage up three (beautiful and historic) flights of stairs. Would definitely stay there again.

Pros:

This was our first stay at the Palace Hotel and we loved it! It’s right in the heart of downtown Port Townsend and was perfect for our needs. The rooms were spacious and nicely maintained. The kitchenette was great to have, plus we had a place to read and eat. The stairs would be a challenge for some, but we actually enjoyed them. We will definitely stay here again.
