The Napa Valley's become so much for the privileged anymore ($30 wine tastings the norm), that a comfortable, spacious place for you and maybe your dog for less than a ransom is worthy. Much still in the 1950s, but with updated touches. Responsive owners that treat you like a guest, not an income stream on a spreadsheet, nor, like some... More

I was tasked with organizing a collage roommate reunion for the 5 of us and our wives. I had the challenge of balancing different expectations of comfort and budgets and this fit the bill perfectly. We took over the entire bungalow court plus the cottage at the Chelsea Inn next door. The bungalows were clean, well appointed and quite charming.... More

We stayed at the Chien Blanc over Thanksgiving 2011 with friends. Pros are its great location near the center of town and the spacious accommodations - they are basically one bedroom town homes. They are also very clean, and provide free WiFi. A major drawback is the dated facilities. And I don't just mean the decor - I mean everything,... More

Pros: - we traveled with a group and it was nice to be able to be next door to them. - pet friendly - kitchenette - more spacious than a hotel - walkability to downtown Calistoga - WiFi came in and out, but mostly worked Cons: - decor is lacking at best.

We prefer lodging with character and this place had a lot of character. We loved the convenience of having a kitchen and we even used the washer and dryer, even though we were only... More

First, the pluses: Our bungalow was very clean inside. The bed was comfy. The shower was hot. Judy was wonderful. Location within short walking distance to town. Even though guests at Chien Blanc aren't "entitled" to the breakfast served at the adjoining property (Chelsea Garden which incidentally is owned by the same people) for some reason we were allowed to...

We stayed at Chien Blanc with 2 other couples which was perfect because we were the only ones on the property. We all gathered outside in the garden or in the game room, and had complete privacy while in our bungalows. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and cozy. We loved how each bungalow was decorated in a fun and... More

We stayed in a little bunglow named " Avignon". The place was very nicely decorated and really cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was clean and well-equipped so we did some cooking. :o) The unit had air conditioning and a heater. They also provide free WiFi which is very useful. Its also dog-friendly so our furry babies were very comfortable. People... More

My wife and I stayed at Chien Blanc with two other couples that we were traveling with and very much enjoyed our stay. The location is ideal, very near the grocery store and only two blocks from downtown. The outdoor seating area and gameroom made for excellent gathering areas for our group while the individual units gave each couple plenty... More
