Inn at Occidental

Really cute town, breakfast great, room very nice - old style inn type. Really nice.

Its incredibly sweet and just a perfect and beautiful place to stay. We will definitely return.

We were both very happy with our stay! The accommodations were excellent and the local restaurants are also excellent. The local shops and restaurants are easily within walking distance.

Four of us stayed in “the cottage” (separate 2nd, 2bath adjacent to the larger building). The cottage was spacious and well decorated. Leather couches in living room, huge table, well stocked kitchen, king size and comfy beds. It was wonderful! Breakfast was fabulous. And the restaurants (especially Hazel) and coffee (Howard’s) and wineries were accessible and wonderful.

My wife and I took a post-holiday trip to Sonoma County and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Inn at Occidental. The Inn is nicely maintained and quite cozy - a great home base for day trips out to the coast or inland to the many wineries in the area. We plan to make it an annual trip, and may time our next visit to catch the musical shows that Matt and Vicky produce spring, summer and fall.

Celebrated our 21st anniversary. Staff was fabulous breakfast was delicious.

Charming place!

Over all a very comfortable get-a-way. We are locals from Santa Rosa and wanted a place to relax alone, but not have a long drive. Occidental was wonderful despite the rain. The Summer room was our pick. Bed was ok, not the most comfortable. However, plenty of pillows, and soft sheets. Room was stuffy, and although cold outside, we were not able to open balcony door due to the heavy rain. So we opted for the wall AC unit. AC did not work well vents were broken. We booked the room for the large jetted soaking tub. My wife was very happy with this amenity. I am not a tub guy, so I used the shower both nights. The water did not stay hot. A continental breakfast was included and consisted of fresh berries, biscuits, croissants, yogurt, jam, butter, maple bacon, granola, coffee, and orange juice. Overall good breakfast, and our server was excellent and very friendly. Our host (Owner) never said hello or asked is about our stay. Many times I passed him and he never attempted to engage in a conversation. This is the main reason for a 3 star review. He did have visiting friends both days and seemed distracted and engaged in providing for their needs. All good, however, it would be good for him to acknowledge his guests. Hopefully this will improve for future guests. One final note. If you need ice, you will have to walk upstairs in the main house. You will find a normal refrigerator with freezer on too and ice maker. No ice bucket, zip lock bag, or other way to transport ice to room. In addition, the freezer had items for meal prep and not very clean. So no ice, bring your own if you want it with a cooler. For our next stay we will look for a more inviting host. My thanks and gratitude to our breakfast server, she was a gem.

Very friendly atmosphere.
