Sonoma hotel rooms a the Benchmark

"Great place"

"We loved this inn! Our room was spacious and so comfortable. I would love to return and stay longer. The outdoor area is so quaint. We were able to be picked up there for our wine tour, and we easily found an Uber to the square "

"We loved our stay here and it felt like a lovely boutique place to stay. Staff were so lovely! "

"The property is built in the mission architecture style that is warm and inviting. Staff was helpful whenever I had questions. There was wine tasting in the main building from one of the local vineyards that I hadn’t visited before. The wines were delicious and went to downtown Sonoma to buy. I ate in the bar and spa. Food was fresh and well prepared. What I think the property should add are walking gardens. We did get the massages at the spa. The spa features the warm mineral water from under the property. That was enjoyable to partake. What I think the property should invest in are walking gardens. The grounds are primarily just buildings (rooms, spa, main entrance) with outdoor pool and fire pit seating areas. Gardens would enhance the spa atmosphere. Sonoma downtown is about 2 miles from the property. We did walk to the downtown, but there are sections without sidewalk. So, the walk was not as pleasant as it could have been. I learned later that the hotel has a trolley to downtown. Overall, the hotel is in a beautiful location in a quiet setting. "

"Great location close to the city center! Walkable to cute restaurants and tasting rooms! Only a block away!"

"The front desk staff was very helpful and polite. Sadly, they do not wear name tags so I can't give them the proper attention they deserve. The rooms are very comfortable but small. We will defiantly visit the hotel again, it was lovely and the amenities are great. Thank you for a wonderful stay."

"Susan was very helpful and accommodating for all our issues. Loved the location next to the plaza and the nice yard to sit in. We would come back here next time. Only issue is the street parking is crowded on the farmers market day (Tuesday) and Saturday. Other than that issue the parking was available."

"We had a wonderful experience! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Layla restaurant food was definitely five star!"
