Princess Peach's Castle is the Capital Building in Toad Town. It is capital to the whole Mushroom Kingdom, and is the home of Princess Peach Toadstool, Toadsworth, and other Toads. It is unknown weather the Yoshi that sleeps on top of the castle is a resident or not.
In Super Mario 64, Bowser took over the castle and trapped Princess Peach, Toad, and all the power stars within the paintings that surround the castle, Mario had to then go through each painting, collect the Power stars, and save the Princess and Toad. Once doing so, the castle returns back to normal.
In Paper Mario, Bowser lifts the castle out of the ground, and into the sky. When the castle was lifted, Princess Peach was having a party, so the she and all of the party guests were taken up with them. Mario was thrown out of a window by Bowser, and had to go up there to save them once again.
Rooms[]
Super Mario 64[]
Most of the rooms in Super Mario 64 were bare and only featured an enlarged portrait that acted as a gateway into a faraway land. There were plenty of different levels, though no distinct rooms.
Paper Mario series[]
The castle looks the same as it did in Super Mario 64. This time, there are more rooms inside the castle. For example: A kitchen, storage room, dining room, library, a balcony, and Princess Peach's room.
Mario & Luigi series[]
The castle played an important role in the Mario & Luigi series. It is generally a hub world, a end game dungeon or a location only shown in the intro. When it is visitable, it is a complex building with many floors and rooms.
Super Mario Odyssey[]
In Super Mario Odyssey, Peach's Castle is a part of the Mushroom Kingdom which is a post game Kingdom. In this game, Peach's Castle is only comprised of a replica of the hall from Super Mario 64. In it Mario can talk to Toadette to recieve Power Moons when he completed some of her challenges.

Switches from Super Mario World and Banzai Bills who constantly attack the castle. Both stages have been recreated in Super Smash Bros Ultimate.
2D and 3D Differences[]
When playing a 3D Mario game, Princess Peach's castle has a lake under it. There is also a bridge for the entrance of the castle with a waterfall to the left. However, when playing a 2D game, Princess Peach's castle has no lake beneath it nor does it have a bridge entrance or waterfall.
