This was an older, motel type hotel. However, my room was more like a suite - very spacious, extra large closet, dining area, mini fridge and stove. I found this to be very convenient. The bed was very comfortable, the TV had lots of channels, the wifi worked flawlessly, and overall the hotel was very quiet. The price was very... More

We love this hotel! The Hillside Inn has extremely clean rooms and clean grounds. Everything on the premises is well manicured and looked after. There is a great breakfast cafe (Jeffrey's Hillside Cafe) downstairs which makes for an easy departure in the morning. The rooms were good size and CLEAN. The Hillside Inn seems to have all the original fixtures,... More

this is a gem from the past. The unit we had, included a small kitchenette, no pans or glass ware, nor microwave. This could be updated very easy . The bed was nice but the only problem I had, was with the ac unit. Since it is only a couple of feet from the bed, it kept coming on and... More

Yes, the Hillside Inn is in need of updating the rooms but overall if you want a clean comfortable bed this does just fine. The premises were tidy and attractive. Our room had a very tight bathroom...the toilet was situated nearly against the wall with the tissue roll pushing into your side. Made for some interesting contortions. Thin blanket and... More

This was a last minute stop. It was convenient to the event we attended and was a pleasant surprise. It was so clean, quiet and had free wif fi. The on site restaurant was a plus - and, for had a great selection for the vegetarians in our party. I would not hesitate to recommend Hillside.

My wife and I have stayed at the Hillside Inn twice a year for several years. This place is great. It's very well cared for and always very clean and tidy. The management and staff is excellent and it kind of has a home-town feel. I can't imagine staying anywhere else.

Stayed for one night while on a tour of local breweries. I did not notice any problems with the management as others have posted. The lady at the front desk was very polite. We got a room in the right back corner. Rooms are very spacious with a stove, oven, and mini fridge. No micro. Traffic was loud until about... More

What a lovely surprise this Inn was. My boyfriend and I decided to stop in based on reviews we found on trip advisor. We needed a place to crash before heading to Sonoma and Napa valley the next day. Had great service, great price and was quiet and quaint! Would definitely stay here again when in town an would recommend... More

We had a reservation at the Hillside Inn for August 25th for one night, thank god! We entered the parking lot near the Lobby and heard what sounded like a business alarm going off. So we entered the Lobby and found no one at the front desk. All of a sudden the owner which I learned a bit later came... More

We spent the night at Hillside Inn in Santa Rosa after attending a wedding. If you're looking for an economical, clean, and convenient place to stay, then this is it. No frills - no coffeemaker in the room but who cares - there are cafes and coffeeshops a minute away. This place is not super close to Hwy 101 but... More
