Manresa has had it's ups and downs, and I heard that it was bought back by another company that is on the ball about how to run such a beautiful place. For one thing, we had toured it, and the lovely front desk girl was charming and professional and the rooms were lovely. Yes, they are antique...that's what one should... More

We were in Port Townsend to celebrate the 60th birthday of a good friend. The weekend of whale watching, shopping, meals and staying overnight was our gift. It was a weekend with two festivals happening- one being one of the largest sailing regattas in the northwest. It was not an easy weekend to find reservations- even 4 weeks ago when... More

My cousin and I stayed there on 4-21-13. I went looking for spirits..Stayed in Kate's room #306. I got lots of orb pictures in the restaurant and Lounge that are closed Sun-Tues. Not so many in other places. Recommend going into the attic and seeing where the Jesuit priest hung himself in 1968, cool place still has the platform he... More

My husband and I were on vacation in Port Townsend. We're from Fair Oaks, California and visit PT whenever we can. We didn't stay at the castle but saw a brochure about Manresa’s dinner theater cabaret “Kreep Show”. So we went for dinner and were very surprised and delighted at the service as it really felt like fine dining but... More

I read others' reviews and am so glad this unique place worked well for them. It just wasn't my cup of tea. The room was odd. A king bed And a bathroom. That was the upside. The bathroom and shower were so incredibly tiny I don't know how many would manage. They describe the furniture as antique. I would call... More

Loved the atmosphere at the castle - every room is decorated a little bit different and the antiques are beautiful. Loved the sitting area just off the lobby - great place to sit and read a book in the early morning hours before anyone else is up and about. We had a wonderful service all weekend - starting with our... More

My husband & I brought the kids to Port Townsend for a quick last minute weekend getaway. We booked a room for 1 night in the Tower Suite on the 3rd floor. No doubt, this room is nice however we did have the chance to glance in at many of the other rooms and noticed that they are not that... More

Stayed here many times. (10 or more) Rates are very reasonable, rooms sufficient, super lounge and good food! Quiet location and close to stores and the allure of Pt. Townsend's offerings. Manresa offers many discounts and specials, too!

Don't stay here looking for a chain hotel. It's old, with wood panelling, gorgeous wallpaper, eclectic furniture and creaky stairs. Our room also had an amazing view, gigantic jacuzzi tub, and plenty of room to spread out. The bed was super comfy with a fluffy comforter. Go ahead and ask to see what's available. I think all the rooms are... More
