"This is one groovy place... better-than-restored with decor that's bold, eclectic, opulent and inviting. A delightful place with secluded garden, hilltop privacy, yet great urban access." --- The Unofficial Guide to Bed & Breakfasts in the Northwest

A Top 10 Frommers' Pick for the entire state of Washington for many years, Chinaberry HIll offers retro Victorian ambiance and coffee house cool. Downtown shops, waterfront restaurants and Antique Row are just a few blocks from this remarkable garden retreat. Great Seattle-Tacoma destination -- Seattle-Tacoma International Airport exit is just 20 minutes away.

Turnkey Operation with Loyal Customer Base -- Offering world-class lodging at affordable rates since 1996, Chinaberry Hill continues to be a favorite B&B lodging choice for business and vacation travelers, as well as the local Seattle-Tacoma romantic getaway weekend crowd (we have 3 multi-room suites with jetted Jacuzzi tubs-for-two). Much of our summer business comes from travelers targeting Seattle as a vacation destination. Approx. 30% of the inn's room nights are either return guests or referrals from others who have stayed with us before.

"Amid the stately old homes of Tacoma's Stadium Historic District, this grand Victorian home has luxurious guest rooms and commanding views of Puget Sound and Commencement Bay... Beautiful century-old trees shade the grounds. Classic Northwest elegance makes this one of the finest inns in the state." --- Frommer's Travel Guide

Tacoma enjoys the longest stretch of public waterfront access of any city in the U.S. Add to that the 14 miles of old-growth trails in Point Defiance and a great selection of upscale eateries and microbreweries in Tacoma's downtown, waterfront, and North End neighborhoods, and you've got an ideal setting for a rich personal life and successful business.

A Place of the Heart -- It is not unusual to have return guests staying at Chinaberry Hill on any given week (some from as far back as our opening year - !!). We appreciate such loyalty from our guests and we endeavor to make sure that your twentieth visit is just as fun, personal and memorable as your first.

The inn offers 3 multi-room luxury suites with private jetted Jacuzzi tubs-for-two, a 2 story carriage house for groups/families (sleeps up to 7), a room w/the original bath to the mansion (for the budget traveler or couple), and a 2 bedroom kitchenette (great owner's quarters with wonderful view of the bay).

This property is unique in that it is zoned mixed-use/commercial. Plenty of opportunities for growing revenue channels (e.g. catering, restaurant/coffee house, gift shop, weddings/special events, business meetings). The flexibility in lodging choices (e.g. private Jacuzzi suites and affordable group lodging options, as well as upscale economic options) greatly enhances property's potential guest base and significantly impacts average daily room rate.

Tacoma's historic North End showcases great walking neighborhoods filled with grand mansions and estate gardens, a vibrant community filled with coffee houses, waterfront dining along a 3 mile waterfront promenade and neighborhood cafes, microbreweries, local farmers markets, world-class museums and art galleries, independent bookshops and more.
