Fodor's Expert Review Old Consulate Inn
313 Walker St., Port Townsend, Washington, 98368, USA
Perched on a bluff a couple of blocks from the bay, this elegant turreted Victorian mansion with a sweeping veranda and parklike gardens features well-appointed rooms with lovely views, some with brass beds and claw-foot tubs. This landmark sits opposite the 1892 county courthouse and takes its name from the acting German consul, one of the inn's early boarders. Guests can relax in the formal, antiques-filled parlor or help themselves to cookies and espresso in the library. The brick-lined basement holds a billiards room. A three-course breakfast (eggs Benedict is the specialty) is served in the dignified dining room with bay views.
