Tides Inn & Suites
Great room great staff! The only thing to note, the space between the floor and the front door was a little large… it lets in a lot of light and sound and also can be a safety concern. Otherwise, amazing stay in Port Townsend. Get the room with the wrap corner deck. It’s beautiful.

Palace Hotel Port Townsend
Great room with kitchen, excellent and friendly staff. Easy walk to shops and restaurants. The reception staff was awesome, especially Jan who helped get us a partial refund because we had to cut our visit short. We have stayed here before and plan to do it again soon!

Valley View Motel
This is our favorite place to stay! Farm with sweet goats- beautiful views and really comfortable accommodations! I was raised in a cabin like these- quaint and cozy. I wish there were more places like this to stay.❤️ Everything you need is thoughtfully offered for cooking and relaxing and a DVD/VCR ...

The Belmont Hotel
Beautiful historical hotel, the rooms were comfortable, the bed too and we liked the vintage style fridge. Because this is a historical building the walls are very thin and you can hear everything! I'd give it a higher rating but the thin walls were an annoyance. Also, no AC in the unit.
