Very clean. Victorian style. Right in town. Practically no customer service. I read this in other reviews but my choices were limited by the time I booked a room. I didn’t realize how much this would affect my expectations. It seems insulting that the chairs on the patio would have wire cable going through them and cushions removed by 5 pm. The lobby is also shut down, no place to go except for your room. . Customers staying on this property seem to be an inconvenience to the owners/management. I would never recommend this Inn to anyone especially at the price point. The manager leaves at 5:30. To improve the quality of the stay would mean hiring someone to work for 5 hours a day to Just watch the patio and lobby for guests only. Sad that this misses the mark on guest experience.

The condition of the property and staff were excellent, however I would have prefered a full-service hotel. I didn't realize that the lobby closes at 6pm.

Wish I could give it 6 stars
Ledson Hotel is one of the best places I’ve stayed. The room are meticulously decorated to reflect the era they are representing. It is a small hotel, only 6 rooms so it almost feels like you are staying at a house rather than a hotel. No loud lobby or crowded elevators. Let’s not forget the balcony overlooking Sonoma Square. Added bonus for sure. Surrounded by restaurants, wine bars and cute little shops. Perfect place to stay a night or two

The rooms are beautiful and spacious. Best bathroom with double vanities. The hotel is in a great location with many places within walking distance. The only downside is the limited time the lobby is open, which somewhat detracts from the ambience. It would be fun to be able to come home from dinner and hang out in lobby or sit outside on patio for a drink or something.

Lovely Hotel, Perfect Location
Room furnishings were beautiful - furniture, drapes, bedding are all luxurious. Definitely recommend one of the rooms on the front side of the hotel, overlooking the park. So many restaurants and tasting rooms within walking distance. We also enjoyed running on the Sonoma Bike Trail and hiking the short Sonoma Overlook trail, both just a few blocks from the hotel. I don't know if it's the case with all rooms, but ours (Whitby's Room) had almost no storage for clothing - no dresser, no night stands, and a closet that wasn't even the depth of a hanger. It was disappointing to live out suitcases for five days. We enjoyed the complimentary wine tastings in the Zina Lounge and at the Ledson Winery.

Second time we stayed here at Sonoma Plaza - best location in Sonoma. We asked for one of the 3 suites facing the rear of the building (#206) and realized a humming of a/c or sim. went on/off during the night next to our room - otherwise, a great stay.

A bit disappointing at the price point we paid that our balcony faced the parking area,and alley. There is a bar next door that was very loud at night. Other than being woken up a couple of times during the night to the sound of bottles breaking when the bars trash cans are being emptied in the alley, it was great.

The staff was excellent. The room we stayed named Edna was very disappointing. The light in the shower stall was out so we had to take a shower in the dark, we bought some food and stored in the the refrigerator and did not know it was not working properly so the box of food were soaking wet, the faucet in the bathroom was not bolted so when you turn on the hot water, the whole faucet moves out of place, lack on written instructions in using the telephone as well as the television so we had to call the staff for directions to operate it. We stayed here before and we were happy then but this room we were in needs some maintenance work.

Very good experience
Very nice property, a small boutique hotel. We had a room facing the main plaza, with a small balcony. The room itself was spacious, a very comfortable king size bed, a fireplace and jacuzzi in the room, a very large bathroom, double sink and separate shower with all the toiletries needed. The housekeeping is on request due to COVID but everything in the room and the whole property was spotless clean. The room is beautifully appointed and well maintained but in my opinion it lacked

The hotel had a classic look with modern amenities. I cannot say a bad word about our stay at Ledson. From the time we checked in until the time we checked out every was fantastic. The staff are so kind and caring. You can tell that they really care and are passionate about what they do. They offer their guests a complimentary visit to their winery. My advice is to go! We did and found the wine to be so enjoyable. Do not hesitate to stay at Ledson. I promise you will not be disappointed.
