“Unusually interesting, attractive, but a few drawbacks”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

person found this review helpful

The castle was most intriguing - an historic property with wonderful views of Port Townsend and the Puget Sound. Our deluxe suite was quite attractive and looked very clean, but it smelled musty. It was attractively furnished in period furnishings (although I did not find the victorian settee or chairs to be comfy). The the bedspreads and pillows were looking a bit past their prime, but the beds were comfortable to sleep in. The bathroom was very large and spotless; it had a great heater, but it took 5 to 10 minutes for the water in the shower to get hot. Our room (204) was over the bar, so we got some noise from the bar until about 9:30 or 10 pm. I liked being 2 miles out of town - there was no noise from the roads or highways.

“Good Value”

person found this review helpful

Manresa Castle perched on the hill overlooking Port Townsend is a step back in time. Historic photos lined the hallways. The complimentary drinks and an appie to share before dinner were a nice touch.

Room Tip: Ocean view for an additional $20 was worth it. We had a lovely view of the harbor from our room up o...

“rooms in desparate need of upgrade”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We really enjoyed the overall experience. The food in the pub (not run by the hotel) was excellent. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. However, we were very disappointed in the condition of the room. There was only one seatee in the room and it was old, uncomfortable and had stains on it. The bedspead also had what looked like blood stains on it. The other furniture in the room was old and battered and there was no "theme" to the room deecor.

Room Tip: check out the room first and ask for another room if it's not clean.

“Fun Place”

We stayed here because we heard it was haunted. It's not scarry, but is very interesting. The rooms are retro and redone very nicely. It's very peaceful, the view from our window was great. The bed was comfortable, the staff helpful.

Room Tip: There is a small elevator, but learn to love the stairs.

“Pass”

This was certainly a let down. The cleaning staff was blaring radios from multiple rooms while preping rooms. I have never stayed in lodging where it is permissable for staff to yell down the halls. Unbeliveable. This is not a fair value as the beds are of poor quality and the bedding quite old. Yuck.
