“Outstanding again”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 27, 2013

Best buy for the money Great location Staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Ask for winery coupons and get the discounts. Buena Vista winery in Sonoma is one of the best Harvest moon cafe is great for dinner and Sunday brunch, Jen is the owner. Black Bear restuarant accross the street is terrible. Golden Hawk Cafe accross from BB restuarant has a GREAT breakfast and the scones are the best. Go down 4 blocks west to Sonoma Valley Market and it has a deli area that is much better than Whole foods.

Room Tip: Ask for a quiet room in the back

“Very nice place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2013

We really enjoyed the hotel. Perfect location. Everything was very clean and the people were all very nice. Two suggestions: Get better toliet paper. One ply and too rough. Lower your rates. The price was too high.

“Fancy for a BW”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

This is a fancy Best Western. Our room has huge and the fire place had a real burner log that was perfect on a chilly night. We stayed at another BW like this in Healdsburg but the fireplace there was gas burning which was not as cool. The bed was huge and plush. The rooms have a nice boutique hotel feel despite it being a major chain. It is only a few blocks walk from the square and there is a nice Whole Foods across the street.

“Hidden Gem in Sonoma”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

The property itself may be a bit dated, but the attention the staff pays to the details makes up for it! From the tissues being fanned out in their box to the wonderfully welcoming front desk staff, the service here was nearly as good as the four-star big-name hotel we stayed at in the city a day prior.

No, there's no elevator; and no, there isn't a bellman waiting to call you a cab at the drop of a hat (and a hefty tip). But, when it's a cool and rainy winter NorCal day, and you have easy access to a spotless spa, heated pool & sauna, and a roaring fire to warm the chill after a quick winter dip in the pool, what more could you ask for?

The staff were incredibly accommodating, ensuring we had a room with a fireplace (even though we booked through Hotwire). They even dished about the latest local gossip with us when we mentioned we used to live in the area. The iced & hot tea & coffee available in the lobby at all hours were a nice touch.

The breakfast isn't anything to write home about; we skipped it after the first day as we could get fresh, reasonably priced exotic produce in East Bay asian markets that we can't come close to touching at home in Wisconsin. (Dragonfruit are seriously 10% of the price here as at home!) But, it's included, and the staff were attentive and welcoming.

Our one complaint about the room was that the chairs in front of the fireplace were more for show than for use. A big comfy chair to relax in at the end of the day would have been very appreciated.

Room Tip: If you plan to use the pool often, ask for a room with direct access. We felt a little guilty traips...
