First time staying in the main square and we will definitely do it again. We loved the El Dorado and the very easy walking access to a number of restaurants. Lovely property. Excellent staff. Wonderful food in the restaurants. We enjoyed being in town at night and driving out of town to vineyards and the bora iCal gardens. Highly recommend.

nice hotel in sonoma city square
Very nice stay. The hotel is small but the rooms are nice sized. The hotel is in the center of town and we enjoyed that. Sonoma is a smaller town, well oriented to tourists with historic sights as well as wine. food at the hotel was very nice, staff very nice and helpful. Would return should we ever come that way again

Thought I had booked a room with a balcony, ended up in a patio room. It said king balcony room on website. They need to separate the patio areas for more privacy.
