Hotel Yountville

We recommend the hotel to couples in their thirties and forties visiting for the wineries and gastronomy, who seek modern comfort without Californian folklore. It is an address for wine-tourism weekends, discreet birthdays, wellness escapes between tastings. Families find their place thanks to the spacious rooms and the relaxed atmosphere of Yountville.

Contemporary two-storey building constructed in the 2000s, sober architecture in painted wood and local stone. Clean Californian design interiors, custom furniture in whitewashed oak, linen and cotton textiles. Rooms between 35 and 55 m², high ceilings with exposed beams, large bay windows opening onto the garden or the street. The ensemble favours natural light and raw materials, far from the Victorian style of certain historic hotels in the valley.

The hotel has an on-site restaurant for breakfasts and light dinners, seasonal Californian cuisine without starred pretension. Room service available until 22h, short menu focused on salads, grills, local wines. The real asset remains the immediate proximity of Yountville's great tables: The French Laundry, Bouchon Bistro, Ciccio less than 400 metres away. We take breakfast at the hotel, we dine out.

Yountville lies at the centre of the Napa Valley, 100 km north of San Francisco and 20 km from Napa town. Washington Street crosses the village over 800 metres, concentrating wineries, starred restaurants and gourmet shops. The hotel occupies a central position, everything is done on foot in this village of 3 000 inhabitants. Oakland airport at 1h15, San Francisco International at 1h30, essential to rent a car to reach the vineyards of Rutherford, Oakville, St. Helena.
