Staying at The Lodge was absolutely perfect... They let us check in early so we could drop off our things before the Train Park, the room was gorgeous, and the pool was wonderful...

    ...For a high-end hotel, this should be automatic and would have been nice seeing as it was a hot day and we had to wait at the lobby while our room was ready... Based on the QR code you order from, they will know to deliver to your room directly, and the service is only available between 7:30 am to 2 pm... Inside the room, the espresso machine in our suite had green moss growing in the container; the wine glasses were dusty; and baby crib mattress was very thin and uncomfortable... It’s the little things that makes guests feel special, and unfortunately, The Lodge fell short in these areas...

    I hardly ever write reviews but as I checked out of this hotel today, I couldn’t help but feel disappointed with our experience. I was really looking forward to staying at The Lodge in Sonoma with my family, but I’m going to rate it as mediocre at best for the price and service we received... This would’ve been nice to know, since a latte at this hotel was an additional $7 each day...

    ...We cannot say enough great things about the venue and its staff—everything was perfect, down to the last detail... Every member of the bartending and wait staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional, and ensured the night flowed smoothly... The Lodge’s Wedding and Event Coordinator, Michelle Sand, was particularly amazing... Simply put, Michelle went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect... Although she was new to the Lodge when we first started working with her, she instantly took charge and proved to us with her professionalism and initiative that we were in the best of hands... She knew exactly how to set up the venue and organize the events of the night so that our wedding was something out of a bridal magazine... She was constantly one step ahead of us and always thinking about additional ways to make our day perfect, from ensuring we had heaters for dinner (something I hadn’t thought of, but we definitely needed!)... to surprising us with an upgraded wedding cottage complete with champagne, chocolates, and rose petals... Wedding planning can be stressful, but Michelle’s hard work, honesty, and genuine care for her wedding couples made our entire experience easy and joyful... To future couples looking for the most beautiful wedding venue, the most delicious food, and the most incredible staff, we highly recommend the Lodge at Sonoma!...

Mingmar Sherpa was our server every day and she was very responsive and made our breakfasts enjoyable... I enjoyed a himalayan salt stone massage at the spa on site and Sarah Stickel was an amazing masseuse, I would HIGHLY recommend this spa service!...

    ...During our recent flooding in Sonoma / Shellville I needed a last minute reservation for me and my yellow Lab while my husband stayed to make sure the house didn’t flood. The manager Dillon Penprase called me back right away and was super accommodating and supportive... The entire staff was friendly and the little bag of dog treats at the front counter was a nice touch I am local and have both stayed at the lodge, had businesss events and had friends and family that visit stay there... The extra attention during a time of stress makes a huge difference and I am so impressed with the team Dillon has at the Lodge... A sincere thank you and “good well done”!...

    ...They have a chauffeur service they offer complimentary in a luxury SUV that goes straight to the downtown square which was perfect especially during the cooler weather as they even pre-heated the car for us. We then got our ride back after dinner and were just a walk away from the hot tub while wearing our comfy robes!...

She was personable, empathetic and helpful with our concerns... She took actions that worked for all involved and did so in a way that put us at ease and set a high standard for a positive customer service experience... We were very impressed with her poise and demeanor and can’t thank you enough for having someone like Maria on your staff who seem to love what they do and do it well...

    ...I was really looking forward to staying at The Lodge in Sonoma with my family, but I’m going to rate it as mediocre at best for the price and service we received. From the moment we arrived, the front desk agent was less than enthusiastic in their greeting... We weren’t offered any bottled waters available at the front desk and clearly for guests... For a high-end hotel, this should be automatic and would have been nice seeing as it was a hot day and we had to wait at the lobby while our room was ready... Also at check in, we were not told that the room service at this hotel is done differently... Based on the QR code you order from, they will know to deliver to your room directly, and the service is only available between 7:30 am to 2 pm... It’s the little things that makes guests feel special, and unfortunately, The Lodge fell short in these areas...

    ...From the moment we arrived we felt like this was going to be a special stay. The check in process was easy and we arrived during the daily complimentary wine offering that is presented by different local wineries... Nice touch after a very long day with a cross country journey... We stayed in a cottage suite (812) that felt very private and well appointed... There is hotel shuttle service into the town square if needed... After eating in town our first night we stopped into Benecia’s for a cocktail... The fire-pit, pool, and hot tub were fantastic after a long day exploring and wine tasting... Would highly recommend this resort if you want a relaxing and upscale stay in the city of Sonoma...

    My husband, toddler, and I stayed at The Lodge for a short weekend trip so we could check out the Train Park across the street from the hotel. My goal was to have a turnkey weekend where we had easy access to a hotel room close to the train park so my son could sleep mid-day and we could play in the pool after he woke up (and I could even taste some wine without doing a traditional wine tasting at a nearby winery - can be tough with a toddler)... Staying at The Lodge was absolutely perfect... They let us check in early so we could drop off our things before the Train Park, the room was gorgeous, and the pool was wonderful... My son even fell asleep in one of the cabanas and we got to taste wines from a local winery during the hotel's happy hour where they invite in local winemakers to do tasting for guests... Nataly and Lily at the front desk were awesome!... They even offered my son ice cream when they saw him totting around... Really appreciated the friendly staff and how accommodating they were every step of the way... We ate at Benicia's for breakfast before checking out and the very sweet staff handed out little stuffed animals to the kids eating breakfast...

    We checked in with Maria when we first got in and she was helpful and informative on the events that was happening in the resort including daily wine tastings, whiskey tastings, where to go biking, etc... However, the resort was able to compensate us with a bottle of wine, a candle and illuminate the resort fee... Nataly was very helpful and understanding of the situation and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay...

Lily, the receptionist was the sweetest person and help me make a last minute reservation for brunch at wit & wisdom restaurant for Easter... We got to meet Alex the bunny, definitely a plus during our stay... Highly recommend to stay here, downtown is only a mile away which they provide a shuttle service that is very convenient to take if you don’t want to drive and enjoy the wine tasting rooms...

    ...We cannot say enough great things about the venue and its staff—everything was perfect, down to the last detail. To start, the hotel and its grounds are modern, luxurious, and impeccably decorated... We hosted our reception dinner outside on the Stone Building lawn, which had the most classy, European feel... Later in the night, we moved inside the Stone Building for cake cutting and dancing, which was equally romantic and charming (bonus—because the building stands apart from the rest of the hotel, we were able to dance much later than other venues allowed)!... Every member of the bartending and wait staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional, and ensured the night flowed smoothly... Simply put, Michelle went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect... She knew exactly how to set up the venue and organize the events of the night so that our wedding was something out of a bridal magazine... She was constantly one step ahead of us and always thinking about additional ways to make our day perfect, from ensuring we had heaters for dinner (something I hadn’t thought of, but we definitely needed!)... to surprising us with an upgraded wedding cottage complete with champagne, chocolates, and rose petals... To future couples looking for the most beautiful wedding venue, the most delicious food, and the most incredible staff, we highly recommend the Lodge at Sonoma!...

We used the fireplace during the cool evenings and enjoyed the patio as well... We dined at Wit and Wisdom and several other fantastic restaurants... There is even a free shuttle to downtown Sonoma which is right down the road... The wineries of Sonoma, Napa and other towns are a short drive away... We can’t wait to go back to enjoy this lovely property again...

Bikes are available to roam the area and they provide you with these interesting “Devo” styled helmets!... ⛑️ Beautiful grounds a stones throw from Sonoma’s nice little “square”... Sonoma has a lot to offer; Oso, The Beacon, Wit & Wisdom (Michael Mina’s restaurant which is AT the lodge), the Buena Vista Winery, POMME to name a few…... We will definitely be heading back to enjoy the grounds and the area!!!...

    ...Not only is the property beautiful, but the staff is incredible too. A few friends and I stayed there this past weekend and the hotel did not disappoint... The pool layout is great for quiet relaxation or having drinks with friends, you can literally spend the entire day there...and we did... The cabana style lounge chairs are so comfortable... And who does not enjoy complimentary wine tasting from 4p-5p... The live music by the fire pit was a perfect place to enjoy the bottle of wine we purchased from the restaurant bar just before dinner... Both couples and families enjoyed this space... One of our favorite areas of the property was the bocce ball/corn hole "courtyard" space; it was like our own private backyard... The bikes were also a nice touch... Our rooms were so clean and well appointed, the housekeeping staff was so friendly...

    ...We definitely appreciated the casual yet upscale atmosphere of this resort as well as its central location in Sonoma. Our cottage suite was comfortable and well-appointed; it was wonderful to retreat to our own quiet little nook at the end of the day... We also loved the filtered water available near the ice machine... Our stay included breakfast from Benicia's Kitchen and it was consistently DELICIOUS w/ fresh ingredients and excellent flavors... Highly recommend the chilaquiles and acai yogurt - YUM... We also enjoyed lovely cocktails from Wit & Wisdom around their firepit... Overall, we had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back!...

What a great relaxing hotel. First welcomed with a great reception crew. They upgraded us to a junior suite cottage because of my titanium status with Marriott, and that was fantastic. Had its own outside sitting area which made it real nice to relax with coffee in the morning or a cocktail in the evening. Everything was clean throughout the grounds and well maintained. The staff at Benicia’s were very courteous and attentive. Breakfast in the morning or snacks before you go out for the day were very satisfying. Dan the bartender at Benicia’s was absolutely one of the best. My family and I went in for the wine tasting (they offer every day from 4-5) and we struck up a conversation with Dan with in our first hours after checking in. We were talking to him about our choices of dinners and wine tastings we had planned for the 5 days we were going to be staying in Sonoma. He couldn’t have been more helpful. Told us everything we could have wanted to hear about everything we chose and things we should do while going to Napa as well. Also, told us things we should do when we comeback to Sonoma/Napa areas. Then everyday after our dinners and tours he would ask how we enjoyed everything and were we happy with our choices. If, you stay here definitely ask Dan about the area, he will be real honest with you about tours, restaurants and other choices you may have about making your vacation a good one. Thanks Dan for the honesty and knowledge you have for the Sonoma and Napa area, it was greatly appreciated by us. Keep doing what your doing!!👍👍👊 He definitely added a plus to the staff. Oh, he and Sara, also make good drinks!! 😜🍸 Sara is a very nice person as well. The restaurant staff in the morning for breakfast were very nice and the food tasted great and were brought out in a timely manner. Pool area was very clean and well kept. Thank you to all!!

The hotel area might seem busy but the hotel rooms themselves (cottage) are very private and secluded. I cant speak for rooms inside the hotel itself, but they seemed central to the restaurant and bar inside. Complimentary wine tastings and beautiful music on the patio. Would highly recommend this beautiful hotel. Cottage had a fireplace (first floor) and a wonderful patio area where we had the opportunity to relax. Bathroom spacious and what seemed like newer rooms. 10/10.

Value for high room rates is nonexistant. Room was similar to any chain hotel along a freeway, but this is billed as a resort. Hot tub is tiny. Pool not heated.No pool service for food and drinks. Gym is tiny with cardio only no weights. Room very bleh. Shower was dirty. Bathrooms measure out a small amount of soap.water measued out too with no hot water. Gas fireplace screen dirty making flame invisible. Cheap uncomfortable furniture in cottage rooms. And nowhere did they offer hand sanitizers. Toiletries very cheap and dispenser mounted to shower wall like it.s a gym shower. Soap and shampoo puts out tiny amounts of each per pump.

Great experience all around the hotel staff and restaurant staff are fantastic. The grounds and ambience is one of the best in the area. We really enjoyed eating at the restaurant Benicia’s, and would like to recognize Ming Mar for excellent service, and a great attitude. She really made our stay. If you’re looking for a great couples staycation spot, this is the place.

I took a spontaneous trip to Sonoma and came across this hidden gem. As a loyal Marriott Bonvoy Titanium member, this property met all my expectations. Amanda helped me with my reservation and she was very kind and made my stay very special. This is now my home away from home. If you have some time, hop on a bike and ride downtown!

From the moment of check in, where you are greeted with a choice of four cold fruit infused waters until we, regretfully, had to leave it was wonderful. We loved our cozy little room so much we grabbed to go food and ate in our room. the fireplace was so relaxing, the high ceilings, the quiet, it was all just amazing. The pool area was nice, comfy padded chairs, plenty of towels, heated pool. Everything at this resort just fosters relaxation. We look forward to returning!

Price tags on properties these days are sky high and the The Lodge is no exception. The room itself was nothing special (we got a junior suite with a gas fireplace). The pool area and general vibe is what made this place for us. We were there only one night but took advantage of free wine tasting 2X and spent our time mostly relaxing by the pool. As a Titanium member we got a $60 food credit for breakfast and had an excellent french toast and a side of bacon.

I really wanted to like this resort but I was not impressed with my overall experience. I will give what I liked: 1. Location was close to town square 2. Room was nice with outdoor patio 3. Gentleman at front desk was so nice and welcoming. I also liked the woman who checked me out. 4. Room service was quick and very nice staff The not so great 1. I felt like I was living in a tenement apt. I had someone above me with children and it was so loud and disturbing and constant. Doors slamming jumping, running, crying, etc. 2. Complaints ignored or at least made no difference as this went on every day Overall not the relaxing visit to wine country I expected. This just made me realize from now on to book adults only resorts. We can do something about unruly adults. Kids are just being kids.

The hotel is lovely; it photographs really well. That said, the room types are a bit hard to navigate (be sure you know what you’re booking) and the overall experience is just average, despite the luxury price point. We had a suite and the outdoor balcony, one of the main draws for booking this hotel so we could sit out and enjoy a glass of wine after our daughter went to bed, was less than ideal. It tightly fits a bistro table and two chairs, while offering zero privacy as it abuts the neighboring room balcony and is completely open to the broader outdoor space. These doors to the balcony are also the only windows in the room. The main suite living room does not have windows (this is visible in the website pictures but worth noting as it’s not something you’ll notice until you’re physically in the space). Also, our fireplace (another selling point of the room), turned itself on/off every 30-90 seconds which was more of a safety concern as much as annoying. We notified the front desk just to have someone check it out and the response essentially acknowledged that they knew this occurred and that they’d get to it. It wasn’t an urgent fix as we were out enjoying Sonoma for the full days we were there, but a bizarre and unexpected interaction/lack of care. While my spouse was at a spa appointment (which he noted as average facilities, more akin to a day spa than a luxury resort spa), my daughter and I were hoping to enjoy the pool and have lunch. We ordered at the restaurant and were told we wouldn’t want to eat at the pool because of the hornets. We gave it a shot anyway, but found that they were right-we couldn’t enjoy the outdoor area bc of the hornets. This was disappointing as we also then did not use the pool for that reason, which was one of the main attractions for having booked this hotel (a few other hotels in the area were undergoing renovations and pools were closed, which is why we booked this hotel). So, overall, a few of the key amenities that are offered here were either unenjoyable or unideal. Certainly not the same type of service, care, or expectation that other hotels offer for this price point. I’d suggest considering other options in the area depending on your needs/expectations.
