Perfect for business or a weekend getaway. With a view of Commencement Bay, fireplace to keep warm, and a jetted tub to relax. The Branch Colonial House will help you with all your needs.
We have stayed at the Branch Colonial house a dozen times over the past four years, most recently this past weekend for our son's graduation from University of Puget Sound. At this point Robin seems practically part of the family, and this is our model of the perfect bed and breakfast. Everything is always clean and comfortable but breakfast is not to be missed! Robin is also a great guide to Tacoma, we have relied on her for everything from restaurants to the best place to buy a used Subaru - with outstanding results every time. Our son is moving out of Tacoma but we will go out of our way to find a reason to visit again.

Thank you for the rave review!!! Being in a different town is hard especial when it comes to things for your kids/young adult. I'm glad I could be of help. Hopefully you will remember that planes and Subaru always come to Washington ;-) Take Care, Robin

This B&B is just a 10 minute walk to the University of Puget Sound campus, where my daughter is a student. It is a lovely home with beautiful rooms. The innkeeper, Robin, is an amazing cook and provided fantastic breakfasts. She knows the area well, and was able to make recommendations on everything from restaurants who deliver, to where to buy flowers. It was a great experience.

We found Branch Colonial a lovely surprise. It's an old home with a fascinating history. The furnishings were quaint but very comfy. (Not always the case with B&Bs) Conveniently located, with plenty of street parking, I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Staying at the Branch Colonial was like a home away from home. Robin could not have been a more thoughtful or gracious hostess. I will remember her kindness and wisdom during a difficult time as I was visiting a sick relative. Not to mention great bed, and delicious breakfast. Thanks Robin.

A restful location on a peaceful street. Short drive to downtown, the park, and the resturant center on 6th. Liked the neighborhood so much that we started researching real estate. The house has had loving hands refurbishing its woodwork. The rooms are large (our bathroom was immense), well furnished and maintained. The wifi worked fine. All for an attractive price. Our host, Robin, welcomed us like family and provided tasty breakfasts that were out of the ordinary, attractive, and sized to take us easily to lunch. This place alone will keep us coming back to Tacoma.

We stayed at this beautiful B & B for 4 nights in June. Robin and Sean were a delight. Our room was large and bathroom massive. Linens were delightful. Breakfast was substantial and freshly made and different everyday. Robin topped breakfast off with my coffee choice, caramel cappuccino. We especially enjoyed the veranda after Sean's perfect supper restaurant recommendation (Loved the Lobster Pot). We have already recommended this treat to our friends and look forward to our next visit.

Loved staying here! My bed was very comfortable and the bathroom had an awesome jetted tub. Breakfast was nice and light, and followed my allergy specifications. Robin was very accommodating to anything I needed, recommendations, directions, etc. and I felt very welcome! Stayed in the Branch quarters.
