Vintners Resort

I attended a small catered affair a few days ago. The service was average, the staff not very attentive. The meal consisted of French onion soup, a citrus salad and seared salmon over a melange if veggies. All were very good with the exception of the veggies which were swimming in a pool of butter and were soggy. Less butter and firmer veggies, please.

Beautiful place I visit each year. It's warm and cozy and there is nothing like a walk through the Vineyards at sunset. It is one of the most romantic places I have ever known and we'll worth the drive up from San Francisco to visit.

I will say, stay at one of the older buildings as the new buildings feel very cold as if yet. Buildings 100-400 are warm and comfy, larger and just so beautiful with the ivy covered walls and surrounded by lush foliage full of birdsong.

Talk a leisurely walk around the grounds with wine in hand, as you get a bottle in your room upon arrival. Then later as it gets dark, slip into the heated pool at the spa for a little dip to warm the chill northern California air.

Dinner at John Ash never disappoints, but stick with The Front Room for a more intimate evening. Just ask for the same menu, choose from their extensive wine list - you are in Sonoma after all - and enjoy the warmth of the atmosphere and the lovely people and impeccable service.

I visit this place a lot since I work nearby. I got to say the customer service is always awesome and they keep the spot neat consistently. Pricing is reasonable and they serve sizeable portions.

This is a very nice Resort. The rooms are very upscale with very nice carpeting along with glass and marble flooring in the bathroom. There is a fireplace in the room and a small refrigerator with some free drink amenities. There is a free bottle of wine included for your stay along with snacks too. The ice machine is under the stairs on the first floor so it is accessible but out of the way. There is a heated swimming pool located near the rooms for easy access. This hotel is located close to a number of well known wineries and some nice upscale dining establishments. It is also 1 block from highway 101 but you dont hear the highway from your room because of the intelligent design of the berm between the highway and the hotel. The landscaping of the hotel is impressive, it makes for a very nice view and great for walking around the grounds.

This lovely and consistent place is right off Highway 101 in Santa Rosa. The rooms are spacious and well appointed, and the staff is personable, professional and understated. The restaurant is lively at night, with plenty of good food and drink options. If you are traveling in the area, it is highly recommended.
