Gorgeous hotel!!! The front desk staff were excellent and the lobby area was beautiful, the restaurant was closed but the âsmall bitesâ offered by the front desk were delicious and very reasonably priced. The room was very clean.
The only thing was that *every* flat surface in the rooms is woodâŠ.the nightstands, tables, console under the TV, floorâŠand sometimes drinks and ice buckets sweat, and there are no coasters or anything so thereâs nowhere to set drinks that you donât worry about damaging the beautiful wood accents. But other than that minor thing, highly recommend and would absolutely stay there again.
Had an excellent stay here! The rooms are spacious and well decorated, staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and its located right off highway 101 with easy access to all of Humboldt County. Great for those who appreciate historic hotels and vintage vibes. Extra great if you happen to love Twin Peaks/David Lynchâvery those vibes.
Wow, what a gem this place is! Absolutely gorgeous, friendly staff and great decor. It was nice to sip our coffee in the lovely lobby in the morning. Beautiful lawn covered in white flowers. Drove over to Fortuna for DELISH pizza at Paul's Live from NY. Fantastic pit stop on our NorCal drive!
Loved the history of the hotel! It is lovingly restored. Bed was comfy. Staff was wonderful!!
Just a couple of suggestions, there was no hair dryer for the bathroom. The bathroom needed someplace to set things down and/or hang toiletry bag and towels.
There was no A/C in the room, which was fine for this time of year, but room was a little stuffy so wanted to open the windows for some air circulation-there are no screens on the windows so I didnât feel very safe doing so. Also at other times of the year could be quite buggy.
We didn't know how old this place was when we found it on the website. Over 100 years. Cold and rainy when we arrived. The lobby was freezing cold, no space heaters. The website also didn't say the restaurant has been closed for 2 years. Room was clean, antique furniture was nice, clawfoot tub/shower. Room was freezing. We turned on the radiator heating following the directions, left for 2 hours to go two towns away for dinner. The room was still freezing. The desk clerk offered us a space heater. It helped. Radiator never did work. Guest rooms are on the 2nd floor but no elevator. Steep stairs, too. Ice machine didn't work. Website said breakfast available. Not really. They had some frozen items you could ask for and they would microwave it for you. We drove the half hour-ish to the iHop in Eureka. It was unique but we wouldn't stay there again. If you go in summer there's no AC. We were really disappointed with it overall.
They do not have any food service. Their restaurant closed, and they were âtemporarily downâ for preparation of their room service menu.
Many many other complaints but the staff is not one of them. The hotel owners need to update the website and travel listing and stop being dishonest.
