Jamie at the front desk is wonderful! We love this hotel- and have stayed here many times! It is so beautiful. The antiques, woodwork and rooms are amazing. The location is perfect- right in the center of the Main Street looking out at the ocean. One of our favorite places anywhere!!

It's a lovely historic hotel in a beautiful setting in the small town of Mendocino. Unfortunately, the restaurant and bar on the property have been closed since the COVID pandemic. There are several options in town though.

The hotel is historic and old. The room was not in the best condition, but still clean. The bed was comfortable and big. The bar and restaurant was closed, but it is in a great location in downtown Mendocino where there are plenty of other options. It is so easy to walk around and also walk to the beach or on that beautiful trail on the cliffs. I was told that the hotel will be renovated soon. So it might close for a while. It is an amazing place with beautiful gardens but it definitely need renovating. So I look forward to come back after the work is done. But it might be more expensive then!?

The room was clean. But the overall property and garden suites are shabby and poorly maintained. Peeling wallpaper, cracked bathroom tile, old paint, mismatched linens. It gives off an air of a ‘once was’ lovely facility. Disappointing that the bar and restaurant are closed in mid summer well past Covid. There’s even a broken window in the main entrance and there is no encouragement to sit in the area and enjoy the hotel at all. For the cost we were very disappointed. However, the two staff I encountered were friendly and polite and the room was quiet. The bedding was very very thin, nothing luxurious about it.

Impressive old-world charm was exactly what drew me to this venue and it did not disappoint! I was there for the Mendocino Music Festival—which was right across the street. Rock-star parking, friendly service, and breathtaking coastal porch-deck, views made for a lovely visit.

Quick getaway
Great view from the balcony. Has a lot of character. Restaurant is closed. No elevator if you’re in need of one. They are remodeling in September. Will stay again after remodeling is completed. Great little town. Beach within walking distance. Overall a great experience.
