Just an awful hotel. Unbearably loud all day and night with people screaming outside and drag races, which was less of a problem since my room filled with CENSORED smoke at midnight both nights. First night we ran the bathroom fan, second night we gave up and slept in our car. I’d rather sleep in ...

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Sonoma is a lovely town with character and history. This hotel is ideally located on the main square. The lively farmers' market was held in the square during our stay.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Immaculate town Much quieter than Napa- we preferred it that way Really nice people Chilled out relaxed place Hotel is close to vineyards that are walkable/ cyclable using free bikes on loan from the Lodge hotel. Great stay

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

The Thomas Keller restaurants Bouchon and ad hoc are both deeply flawed and should be avoided. Marshals General Store on California Rt1 was wonderful, some of the finest oysters I have ever tasted.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Definitely a nice place, but slightly out of the way from the center of Sonoma and a fair bit overpriced for the experience

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Great place to visit and/or stay with an abundance of great dining places.
