Tulips and chess at the Gilbert Inn
|
Features
Upon entering the Gilbert Inn, an original Queen Anne Victorian house, you will see it is still much the same as when Alexandre completed his Seaside, Oregon home in 1892. The Gilbert Inn still looks much as it did back then; the fireplace still burns in the center of the parlor; the natural fir tongue and groove ceilings and walls retain their warmth and glow.
The ten guest rooms are
inspired by the Victorian era, echoing charm and elegance
from the end of the 19th century. Each room offers queen sized beds, down
quilts, cozy comforters, period furnishings and family
heirlooms. The emphasis is
on comfort, rest and romance for Gilbert Inn guests.
The piano in the bay In the Gilbert Inn’s common rooms, the country French furniture and antiques await you, as if extending an invitation to linger. Enjoy a beverage, play a game of chess or have a conversation; these are your living rooms at the Gilbert Inn.
The Gilbert Inn's sitting Room
Read the morning paper or have an afternoon drink in the
sitting room, with its comfortable chairs and warm original fir
paneling.

Seaside, Oregon. On sunny days there is no place more beautiful than the Oregon coast. The weather is inclined to change somewhat in the Pacific Northwest, however. The Gilbert Inn's common rooms provide a refuge from rain and wind. They are great places to relax after a full day of fun, too.
In all weathers, sunny or not, there is so much to see and do in Seaside and the coast. The Inn is one block from the Pacific Ocean beach, the ocean side promenade, or "Prom" as Oregonians call it, Broadway (Seaside's "Main Street") and its popular "Turnaround." At the Turnaround you will see a statue of Lewis and Clark who explored the region before "turning around" to go back east to report to
Mr. Jefferson in Virginia.
Just down the beach from the Gilbert Inn is Lewis and Clark's salt works. Further out enjoy hiking and exploring Tillamook Head, Lewis and Clark's Oregon headquarters,
Ft. Clatsop or the
Columbia River
Maritime Museum.
