Official Description (provided by the hotel):: We are setting the new standard for the American Bed and Breakfast Inn. This is not an inn for traditional B&B people. We are attracting the next generation who want great food for breakfast, well beyond the traditional omelets, frittatas, and egg bakes of old. This is where you get to experience a chef’s creative innovation each morning, one of his 110 recipes for breakfast, such as Corndog Omelets, Tomato and Egg Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons, or S’mores French Toast with house made Marshmallows.WARNING: we do not cater to people who want to stay connected to the television. We purposely removed all televisions so that couples can enjoy the intimacy of whirlpool tubs in the rooms with gas fireplaces, or sit out in the garden sipping on wine and enjoying great conversation. Yes, WiFi is available for those who feel they must stay connected to the outside world, but our hope is that you will learn to leave all that aside to enjoy great Napa hospitality here at the inn and at the wineries. ... more less

Reservation Options:: TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Expedia so you can book your The Inn On First reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

My husband and I stayed at the Inn on First for 4 nights for my birthday and absolutely loved it! Jim and Jamie are the kindest and most gracious hosts and know A LOT about Napa Valley. They made our first trip to Napa really memorable by helping us plan our winery visits and dinners...not to mention left champagne and... More

“Wonderful stay!”

Recently spent a Saturday night at The Inn on First. We were traveling with another couple and both celebrating our anniversaries together with a quick weekend in Napa. Jim greeted us very warmly at check In and gave us a personal tour of the Inn, our rooms, and all of the amenities. Our rooms in the main house were extremely... More

Dear BigBOrangeCounty_CA: Thanks very much for your kind review of your stay with us. We're always pleased when guests take advantage of the living room and patio to kick back and relax with their friends or other guests. I do try to do justice to Jim's wonderful cooking by serving it to our guests while it's still hot! We hope... More

“Take me back!”

Reviewed May 20, 2013 NEW

STAY HERE! My husband and I left The Inn on First yesterday morning and already miss it! We discovered it through the positive reviews on Tripadvisor, and it completely lived up to our high expectations. Before we even arrived, Jim and Jamie sent us a ton of helpful information on wineries, restaurants, and things to do in Napa Valley. Everyone... More

Dear CourtCruz: That's very kind of you to say you miss being here already! Please know the feeling is mutual. I am very pleased you enjoyed my recommendations for hiking. We're fortunate to be able to offer some "non-wine-tasting" experiences for our guests. Even though we are clear about the traffic noise in two rooms that face the street (in... More

“A wonderful, modern B&B”

My husband and I normally prefer to stay in hotels but we had a gift certificate from Select Registry to use. We decided on The Inn on First because it looked like a more modern B&B - and we weren't disappointed. It was a wonderful experience: we stayed in the Meritage Room which had its own private entrance at the... More

Dear sfcaren: Hugo, Calvin & Oscar thank you very much for giving them some props in your tripadvisor review! :) They are quite the charmers! We're glad you enjoyed your visit, and the fact we're so close to so many wonderful dining experiences. Downtown Napa has a restaurant for every whim, and we're fortunate to be a part of it... More

“Great find in Napa”

We stayed at the Inn on First for just one night, but we will definitely be coming back for longer trips in the future. The room was great, incredibly comfortable bed, nice sitting area and you can't beat a heart-shaped jacuzzi tub! We checked in late and they made sure a packet was waiting for us, making the process easy.... More

Dear Jeff_G7448: Thanks for sharing the fact you enjoyed our amenities, including breakfast, which (as you can tell) Jim takes great pride in preparing for our guests. Being the case, every once in a while guests oversleep, and we really don't want to send them away without a hearty breakfast. We know it is never intentional, so we do our... More

“Honeymoon bliss!”

Reviewed May 18, 2013 NEW via mobile

The service was spectacular from check in to check out. Every morning the breakfast couldn't get better than the previous but was still even better. Port and cookies in the evenings. Within walking distance of downtown restaurants and tasting rooms. The fireplace next to th jacuzzi tub was perfect. Don't pass this one up!!!

“Best room, best service, best breakfast.”

Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Inn on First. From the time of booking to the time we left the service was outstanding. Home, room, location, food all wonderful . Pictures looked just like the room/house. No surprises.

Dear SharonSmithe: Thanks for proclaiming to the internet world that we're the best! We like to think so, but I know we're not alone in that game! :) Seriously, we're glad you enjoyed your experience, and thanks for the affirmation that you experienced no surprises.

Reviewed May 16, 2013

This is my second time staying with Jim and Jamie at the Inn on First. My companion was less than thrilled at the idea of staying at a B&B.... I think "torture" was the first word that popped into his head when I told him we'd be staying there. He's a business traveler and is accustomed to the big chains.... More

Dear GatorGirlPammie: We had no idea you had to perform the hard sell in order to get the beau to say with us! Nonetheless we're happy you did as we all enjoyed the Bottleock weekend. We're so pleased you both had a good time, and you did a great job mixing in a little wine tasting along with the Bottlerock... More

“A must stay in Napa!”

Reviewed May 15, 2013

From the charming accommodations, to the amazing homemade works of art the innkeepers call "Breakfast"' this B&B is one of a kind. The kindness and helpfulness of the innkeepers is what truly sets this Inn apart. If you want a truly unique Napa experience ask them for help in planning your meals and activities. You will not be sorry!

Dear D K: Thank you very much for your very supportive review of your stay with us. Jim is simply passionate about serving our guests a creative and tasty breakfast, and we genuinely enjoy sharing our Napa experiences with our guests. I realize you came from across the pond, but we'd love to host you again one day! Thanks again,... More

“Excellent B&B experience”

Reviewed May 14, 2013

We recently stayed in the Incantment room which was lovely, light and roomy. Jim and Jamie couldn't have been more welcoming and informative and the breakfast was spectacular. Also enjoyed the foyer magazines and overall airy feel of this convenient B&B. We are normally hotel people but this reminded us to try more B&Bs in the future...it was exceptional.

Dear Krafty24: Yes!! We've converted two more people to the bed and breakfast experience! This is meaningful as there has been a lot of negative press recently around outdated stereotypes of the bnb world. We're thrilled you enjoyed Jim's breakfasts and felt at home. We're grateful you took the time to post your review as well. Thanks again, Jamie. More
