Great location
The building is showing signs of age, but the staff could not have been more lovely and helpful. We had to change rooms because our HVAC stopped working, big shout out to all of the staff, but especially to Elisa, the daytime desk clerk. She and the other young Hispanic gentleman Working at the desk early in the day went far above and beyond. The hotel needs to give them a raise.

nice hotel in sonoma city square
Very nice stay. The hotel is small but the rooms are nice sized. The hotel is in the center of town and we enjoyed that. Sonoma is a smaller town, well oriented to tourists with historic sights as well as wine. food at the hotel was very nice, staff very nice and helpful. Would return should we ever come that way again

The location is perfect. The building is old and our room faced the street. It was very noisy. Not a quite place to stay.

Beautiful historic hotel with great amenities and gourmet food & beverages, in perfect central location across from the downtown square park. King size bed was super comfortable and the bathroom shower was awesome. We enjoyed the private pool all to ourselves.

Thought I had booked a room with a balcony, ended up in a patio room. It said king balcony room on website. They need to separate the patio areas for more privacy.

From the moment we got there until we left, the attention to detail and customer service was amazing. I can’t wait to come back and stay here again on our next visit. Every member of staff was incredibly nice and so helpful.
