The Palace hotel is a really nice, clean place to stay and the genuine Victorian feel of each room is a bonus. If you've never stayed at the Palace, each room is unique and tastefully decorated and outfitted to match the Victorian atmosphere. The staff are friendly and easy to work with. There is no elevator, so that might be a problem as the stairs are quite imposing. However, the location in downtown PT along the waterfront, where shops, restaurants and watering holes are within easy walking distance, is another bonus. Parking is always a little tough in PT, especially on a weekend, but the Palace has exclusive parking around back for their residents. We have recommended to friends and they have also enjoyed their stay.
