The Palace Hotel - A Step Back in Time
The Palace Hotel occupies the Captain Tibbals Building. This classic three-story brick building was constructed in 1889 for $28,000 by Henry L. Tibbals, a retired sea captain. Built in the Richardson Romanesque style, the building's arched windows appear to extend for two stories through the use of twin columns that bracket each window bay on the building's facade. The Captain Tibbals Building is a beautiful example of Port Townsend's turn-of-the-century architectural past.
Retreat to days gone by. . . .
The newly added Mezzanine Lobby, where you can enjoy a peaceful cup of morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The original ceiling painting was restored some years ago by travelling bicycle artists!
