Top South Fork of the American River Hotel Reviews

Historic Cary House Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was well maintained for a historic hotel and it was interesting to see the history."

Red Lion Inn & Suites Auburn

8/10 Good

"Pros: Property has everything you need for a short stay. The parking lot and location is safe and easy to access. The staff is very nice at check in and check out. There is a continental breakfast included at no extra charge. The rooms are spacious. The bed is very comfortable. There is a fridge, blow-dryer, ironing board, and the shower water is warm and good water pressure. Next to the hotel is conveniently a taco bell and Starbucks. The location is just a short uber ride to downtown. Cons: This is an older property, the rooms could use a little extra cleaning and minor updating but to be expected for its age. Reason for staying: We like to day drink and hop around the shops and downtown/old town and found this is a comfortable hotel to stay and the location is very convenient."

Holiday Inn Auburn by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed during renovations so there was less parking and some noise from the construction crews. When those are complete it will be a great place to stay. We will come back next time we go to the local race track!"

Gold Trail Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"Room #7 Unless the door was slammed shut, the card /key won't unlock the door. a bit frustrating. Other than that the room was modernized. Nice tiling in the bathroom, Great water pressure. The A/C worked well. The room smelled fresh. Lighting was bright both inside the room and outside. I would stay again."

Best Western Golden Key

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room, friendly staff, great grassy area with trees on the property for dog outings. A nice place to stay."

Studio 6 Suites Cameron Park, CA – Folsom

8/10 Good

"The room was nice but we saw a cockroach when packing our things to leave"

Bella Vista Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"I just had a fantastic time here with my fiancé! We relaxed, got work done, and enjoyed DVD movies! The hot tub and the slide were a blast! I would stay here again <3"

Best Western Plus Placerville Inn

8/10 Good

"The place was really nice. We did have a couple issues though. The sink was clogged when we first used it, not sure how housekeeping didn't catch it. They had to come fix it before we could even brush our teeth that night. But at least they had someone available immediately to fix it. The conditioner dispenser was empty, again housekeeping missed that too. Two dogs next door were barking early and woke us up. I'm sure hotel policy is not to leave pets unattended but someone did"

American River Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully maintained property. Spacious air conditioned room. Very comfortable bed, bedding & pillows. Breakfast was delicious with fresh seasonal fruit, omelette one morning & French toast the next. Fresh orange juice & lots of hot coffee. Would definitely recommend & hope to return."
