Palm Beach Historic Inn
A Spanish Colonial hideaway steps from Worth Avenue
About this hotel
Built in the Spanish Colonial style that defines old Palm Beach, this inn trades big-resort scale for a courtyard-close, three-star footprint eight minutes on foot from the Worth Avenue Clock Tower. A couple splitting a golf trip finds the rhythm here: breakfast under arched windows before the golfer heads out, then bikes and beach gear checked out at the desk for the other half of the day. Royal Palm Way is six minutes away on foot, Drift Palm Beach sits one minute from the door, and the wrought-iron balconies and tiled walkways make the walk back from dinner part of the stay rather than a commute. Pet owners travel with the dog rather than around it, and the property stays smoke-free throughout. The rental bikes, kept ready at the door for a beach run before the group reconvenes, are what people remember.

Our take
This inn suits the golf trip's non-golfing half, or a couple who wants to base within walking distance of Worth Avenue rather than out at a course-side tower. The free bikes and beach gear put the shoreline a few minutes away, and the pet-friendly, smoke-free rooms keep things simple. A society chasing consecutive tee times and a clubhouse dinner should book closer to the course itself; this address rewards those willing to drive to golf and walk to everything else.
- Book your rental car or golf shuttle separately, since the inn arranges neither transfers nor tee times for its guests.
- Grab a rental bike straight from the desk and ride to the beach before the winter high season fills Worth Avenue.
- Walk the eight minutes to the Clock Tower after dinner at Drift Palm Beach instead of calling a cab.
