Sonoma Hotels

For a suitably high price, the full service Lodge at Sonoma provides guests with every conceivable facility and top class customer service - the hotel has 182 rooms & suites, distributed over a number of separate blocks surrounded by walkways and landscaped gardens, part of a spacious site also including a large outdoor pool, three dining outlets, 11,000 sq ft of meeting/event space (indoors & outdoors), and the Raindance Spa which offers a dozen different treatments. The large, comfortable rooms feature decor and furnishings inspired by the surrounding California wine country, and all feature a refrigerator, pull-out sofa, fireplace, luxurious bedding, and either a patio or balcony. The resort is situated on the south side of Sonoma along highway 12 - 13 miles from the larger town of Napa.

Sonoma Valley wine county may be world famous but the town of Sonoma is quite small and has a limited choice of accommodation. The most central hotel is the Best Western Sonoma Valley Inn (550 2nd St W), opposite a shopping center and within easy walking distance of Sonoma's historic central square. The 80 comfortable rooms at the inn enclose a private courtyard with gardens, mature trees and an outdoor pool - a nice place to sit and relax. Other facilities are free continental breakfast, an exercise room, hot tub, steam room, free parking and guest laundry. The property rebrands as Sonoma Valley Inn, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, late 2024.
