“Delightfully peaceful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012 via mobile

The moment I arrived at the Bardessono my thoughts escaped me and I was immediately relived of the weeks stress. The room was spacious and the patio was the perfect place to spend my mornings. The spa is top notch. Low lighting with tranquil surroundings. The concierges can set you up with any activity or and restaurant in the area. Their recommendations exceeded my expectations!

“Amazing place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

This hotel is in my top 5 of favorite hotels I've ever stayed at. The architecture is beautiful and the interior design tasteful: modern, serene with a cosy feel. They've paid attention to detail on every level. Great service: friendly and welcoming. The room itself was amazing. I loved the fireplace in the bedroom as well as the oversized bathroom with hot tub and shower.

The hotel is located in one of the best parts of Napa Valley. Yountville is a cute town with some of the best restaurants in the area. We rented bikes and went on a 10 mile loop, which brought us along some great wineries such as Cliff Lede and Silver Oak.

I'll definitely come back to this place for romantic weekend. Though I can see that it's also a great spot for a work off-site.

“Amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

My husband and I went to Napa for his 40th birthday. We decided to splurge on the hotel and stay at the Bardessono. We were not disappointed! This hotel is top-notch. We pulled up in our rental car and were immediately greeted with a "Welcome and Happy Birthday Mr. Sanders" from the valet, the luggage porter, the check in desk where we were given glasses of wine, etc. Our room was absolutely stunning, on the second floor, and with all the King Spa Suites, it had a huge spa bathroom, amazing tub, giant outdoor balcony with lounge and dining area, an indoor fire place, and views of the hotel garden and the hills beyond to the west.

We loved the environmental design to the room and the hotel in general. The bar is very nice, both indoors and out on the patio with fire pits and fountains. The rooftop pool is awesome, we were able to get a covered cabana every time, no wait. The menu at pool bar is really great and the service good. Room service food is amazing, including breakfasts and the cheese plate. The only aspect of the hotel we were not totally impressed with was dining in the restaurant Lucy. It was fine, nothing special.

The concierge was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and scheduled us for a private tour and tasting at Contessa, which I highly recommend. Another day, we took advantage of the complimentary hotel bikes and rode the Stag's Leap loop while stopping at several wineries. We were even able to get the hotel's complimenatary Lexus (which is first-come, first-serve) out for a test drive on my husband's birthday, which he loved! The location of the hotel is prime; it is literally in the center of Yountville, which is a small, easily walkable town. You are within walking distance to many restaurants and wineries/tasting rooms.

We have been lucky to stay at some classy hotels in our travels, and we can't wait to get back to the Bardessono-absolutely loved it. Maybe my 40th birthday...and stay even longer??!!

Dear littlemtngirl (Mrs. Sanders),

We're so glad we were the venue for your husband's 40th birthday celebration, and we really appreciate this review. You certainly experienced a lot of what we and the Valley have to offer our guests and visitors.

I'm sorry, though, that Lucy didn't delight you. When and if you return, please give Lucy another try. I promise a better experience there next time.

All best wishes from your friends at Bardessono.

“outstanding stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 3, 2012

We just returned from a wonderful trip to Napa Valley with a group of friends and really enjoyed our stay at the Bardessono. We went in celebration of a friend's birthday and the entire experience could not have been better. Andrew, the concierge, went above and beyond what was expected when helping plan our itinerary. The public spaces of the hotel are quite beautiful and our room was outstanding. We loved the automatic shutters and the private balcony! The bed was so comfortable. Although I did not bring my dog on this trip I like the fact that the hotel is pet friendly. The location is also another plus. You are in downtown Yountsville and within easy walkng distance of some of the best restaurants in the country. We loved everything about our stay and will be back.

“Truly wonderful!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 2, 2012

What a wonderful place! The eco-friendly decor is serene and Zen-like. The grounds with the landscaping and water fountains are lovely; the rooms are supremely comfortable; the service is excellent and the food is delicious.

The hotel is perfectly located in Yountville to all of the best restaurants in town. We could easily walk everywhere. The bicycles are a very nice touch. We enjoyed cycling to some vineyards one afternoon.

We never actually swam in the pool but we enjoyed relaxing in a cabana beside it. We had an in-room massage by our fireplace which was wonderful, followed by a soak in the fabulous bathtub.

There was a black-out in town one evening while we were dining at a restaurant in the area. The restaurant had to send everyone home and we were all too happy to return to Bardessono for the wonderful food. They had candles lit everywhere and it was very romantic. We enjoyed the tasting menu, as well, one night at dinner. The service and the food were terrific.

We look forward to returning to Bardessono. It has a wonderfully relaxing retreat vibe to it. I highly recommend it!

Room Tip: I think any room would be great!

Dear Melody5,

So glad you had a great trip to our part of the world, and that you enjoyed your stay here at Bardessono, and thank you for such a nice review.

The power outage took the whole town by surprise. We tried to make the best of it with candles, our gas-powered kitchen, and help from our emergency generator. Thankfully, few of our guests were inconvenienced.

We hope we'll see you back here soon.

All the best.
