Situated in the heart of the Port Townsend Historic District, just a short walk from the ferry terminal, the Belmont Hotel and The Waterfront at Sterming Place Event Space offer an ideal setting for weddings, parties, business meetings, reunions, and other gatherings.

This elegant venue boasts stunning wood floors, an original red brick interior, and large windows that showcase sweeping views of Port Townsend Bay from the spacious waterfront deck. Additionally, the downstairs Grotto provides a generous space with high ceilings beneath the waterfront dining area, making it a perfect complement or breakout area for various functions.

The Event Space can accommodate up to 180 guests for a standing reception or 100+ guests seated at round tables; however, it can also be an intimate gathering space for as few as 12.

The fully renovated interior includes a catering kitchen, tables, chairs, plates, glassware, silverware, and more available for your event. There are also four restrooms in the venue, two of which are ADA compliant and located on both the main level and the downstairs Grotto.

Enhancing the experience, The Belmont Hotel on the second floor is a beautifully restored Victorian boutique hotel featuring four rooms that blend historic charm with modern amenities, and can accommodate up to 12 guests.

The Event Space can be rented for either a half or a full day. The time slots are from 10am to 4pm, or from 4pm to 10pm for a half day, or 10am to 10pm for a full day.
When you book, the reservation will default to a half day time slot/rental fee for the Event Space - To reserve the Event Space for a full day, please call our Guest Service Team to add the additional time and rental fee to your reservation. Vacasa Guest Services: 800-544-0300
