I have stayed at the Palmer House several times when in the area, and I will continue to do so. The atmosphere of this historic hotel is absolutely charming. From the tin ceilings and classic style cafe, to the warmth of the fireplace in the lounge, it just feels like home. Kelley and the Staff at the Palmer are always... more

The Hotel itself is a fun place but the service or should I say lack of service ruined our stay. There was no one at the front desk to check us in-the waitress from the restaurant had to check us in after about a 20 minute wait-there also was no one to check us out . Then when we ate... more

This was a fun and extremely economical way to spend a night in Sauk Centre. We were there to ride the bike trail and see the Sinclair Lewis homestead/museum, and we had a great time. The standard room was quite nice, very clean and well kept, spacious bathroom. We ate dinner at the restaurant downstairs, and had the prime rib,... more

I really liked the atmosphere as I walked into this hotel. Although this is a haunted hotel, I unfortunately didnt come across any ghostly visitors but I was awakened by footsteps in the room above us at 2am - not ghosts. The only thing I didnt like about the room was that it was stuffy and the A/C kept turning... more

My husband and I stayed at this historic hotel many years ago and we were very impressed with the cleanliness and friendly atmosphere. On our way to Alaska this year we will make reservations to stay there again. Loved the historic aspect of the hotel. Great rates too!Hilda & Michael Bass more

Staying at the Palmer House is an EVENT, not just a night's lodging. Very comfortable rooms, and the ambience of the whole place is marvelous. The Pub (bar and restaurant service) is charming and elegant with a small-town feel. The restaurant (also on main floor) has some of the best breakfasts you'll ever eat. The owners and service people will... more

I did not stay at this hotel, but did get to tour the rooms during a recent visist, Sept. 2002. It is a beautiful old hotel, built in 1901. The rooms are very nice, some with jacuzzis. Old hotels are jems, consider staying. more
