Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa
If we could give 20 stars we would! Our stay was absolutely wonderful. Our room and the entire hotel sparkled. The staff was so polished, yet so friendly and approachable. We had delightful food in the bar and restaurant. The grounds are so beautiful. We can hardly wait to return!

Silverado Resort
Excellent updated accommodations. We had a suite with a kitchen and separate bedroom. Rooms are updated, clean, and comfortable. Loved cocktails in the mansion sunroom with golf course views. Service and staff were impeccable.

The Meritage Resort and Spa
Everything was great, only thing I'd change was they only had one coffee cup in the room for coffee and the phone didn't work to call for room service. Everything else was amazing.
