The rooms are ok for the winter. I can’t imagine them being very comfortable in the warmer months as there isn’t any climate control other than a small cadet heater. My TV remote didn’t work. The refrigerator didn’t work and had a pool of warm water in the freezer. The staff was nice. They tried to move me but were unable. I was told the manager was going to get a hold of me and they were going to compensate me but never heard anything. Bit of a let down for sure. I paid for a room with working amenities and didn’t get what I paid for.

The hotel is old but has been updated. The main thing I look for in a hotel is a good, comfortable bed, and I found the beds to be satisfactory. Better pillows would be a nice addition. The rooms were clean, although a thorough shampooing of the carpets could enhance their appearance.

We stayed on the first floor, and at times, there was some noise from people in the halls. Overall, I would recommend this hotel and will stay here again.

I screwed up with dates and made reservation via Expedia for the wrong day. No refund of course. If I’d made reservations directly with the inn, they would have adjusted dates to cover my error. Lesson learned: don’t use Expedia, book directly with the inn.

Staff was very good and accomodating and took the time to fill us in on the history of the building. a little bit away from town but great views of the bay.

A bit dissappointing

The staff were very friendly and accommodating and am thankful for their service. I was disappointed in the condition of the hotel. I stay here many times in the mid-1980s and the condition of the hotel was much nicer. From the outdoor grounds not being taken care of to the carpets in the hallways and common areas that seem dirty, never shampooed, or vacuumed. Many scuff marks on hallway and stairway walls. It just seems like the owner is draining money off the hotel and not putting it back into the hotel to make it a rewarding destination stay.

This was a unique opportunity to stay in a castle. There are a lot of stairs. However, Amber, at the front desk made the whole stay wonderful. She took us up with a 1920 original elevator with our luggage. The castle has claims of paranormal activity but, we did not experience anything unusual. We had a window looking out at the harbor which was a welcome sight to wake up to. There is a bar and restaurant in house but we went to explore the town and ate at Sirens which was wonderful and had a karaoke night.

The building is a charming European-style hotel that was originally a mansion built by one of the town's founders. Over the past decades, it has been extensively remodeled while retaining its charm. One of the former owners installed bathrooms in each room. Prior to that, each floor had communal bathrooms.

We had a West-facing room that had a view of a State office building and strip mall. the East-facing rooms have panoramic views of town and the headwaters of the Salish Sea.

Our room had no air conditioning, but it wasn't needed. While the room was comfortable, be aware that the hotel does not meet current ADA standards. There are lots of stairs leading up to the entrances and the upper floors (a staff-operated elevator serves the first and second floors) and the bathrooms are small.

The hotel sits on a steep hill about 1 1/2 miles West of downtown Port Townsend. If you're a walker, you will get a workout.

I have always wanted to stay here for as long as I can remember. I was bummed that for spending so much money on this room that the bed wasn’t more comfortable. In fact, I haven’t felt a bed so bouncy in all of my life, it sank rather deeply anytime I went to sit or lie down.

I do wish the bathroom would’ve had a counter space or a better area (one that didn’t have a metal grated type shelf for things to fall through) to put my makeup. It also felt very cold and sterile like a hospital which I really didn’t like. I suppose I didn’t expect much more for the time period in which it was created but a little modern love, a dramatic color tone and complimentary touches to really maintain and magnify it’s historic charm would go a long way.

I also think the massive clash of wallpapers, and the lack of a quality wall decor, and solid color scheme throughout made a bad impression. This room needs a makeover, replaced missing chandelier prisms & some very basic touches. If done right, this room could feel far more luxurious and better all around to achieve that feeling I had hoped to feel staying here - and unfortunately due to these clashing factors, did not.

It was definitely neat in it’s own right don’t get me wrong, and I can finally cross it off my bucket list but I was disappointed that it didn’t feel quite as grand and amazing as I mentally anticipated.

More than anything else, that room desperately needs a cozy mattress and better bedding.

Fun old pile with a ghost story! Stayed here for two nights with family because of its somewhat unique history and vibe. The hotel is shabby, the restaurant has a mundane menu and is only available for dinner. The elevator can only be operated when staff are at the desk, which means it isn't available for guests arriving after hours. Still, we had fun staying here. Definitely not a chain hotel experience. Rooms are large, there were deer in the garden. Plenty of hot water. But few special amenities. Great value if you are staying off-peak. Overpriced for those travelling in high season given what you get for your money.

We brought a shower chair, which barely fit in the bathtub.

Lots of history and a fun experience

We showed up to Manresa after a long trip from the San Juan islands, and were greeted with an amazingly friendly front desk lady. She was enthusiastic about the ghost stories and was more than willing to answer any questions about the history of the building we may have had. I loved that we were welcome to just wander the building as we wished...there were old pictures all over the place to explore.
The restaraunt was mexican food, but so good! Great, fresh ingredients, and decently priced for what we got.
The room we had (216) was easy to find, and had two seperate bedrooms with one bathroom in the room. I saw other reviews stating the rooms didnt have bathrooms, but maybe that was their setup...we had an ample-sized bathroom with sink and shower in ours. The beds were actually really comfortable, and the sheets were soft and cozy. We had a decently sized closet that had extra blankets and two fans.
There was a ceiling fan in one bedroom, a tv, a fridge, and a seating area with a small table overlooking the water.

If I had to say one bad thing, its that the building is old (duh), so the floors/stairs/walls/pipes are noisy. The walls are thin, and if something is going on in the bar, you can hear it. These were all things I expected in a building that is over 100 years old. Adds to the charm, in my opinion.
Trip included 2 adults and 2 kids (8 and 11).
