The Setting Inn Napa Valley

First off, hat off to Candice. She is THE best. Not only she helped us months in advance to our arrival, suggesting places to visit and things to do, but she was an extrordinary person that took care of us every day. She deserves all the credit. Then you got the place: Great location, close to Yountville, Oakville and Saint Helena. You got the superb breakfast, the comfy beds, the fluffy towels, the GREAT OWN WINE! You got the firepit, the barn, the gym, the vineyards... You got it all.

Nothing could have gone better. Everything went great and we cannot stress it enough

The innn was the highlight of our trip! Bouchon Bakery was delivered to our door every morning, and we ate our goodies on the back patio to start each day. The inn was charming, quiet, peaceful, and easy. I just loved everything about it. Delightful experience!

The most comfortable bed I’ve ever laid in. Agree with all the other positive attributes others have mentioned.

Nothing. One suggestion would be to offer their wine either upon check in or maybe a daily happy hour? I didn’t realize the connection to a reputable winemaker until after our stay. There were bottles in the room but we would’ve been charged to open them. Seems like a perfect opportunity to offer a taste to guests and perhaps we would’ve left new fans.

A hyper farmhouse surrounded by vineyards, just like you'd expect in wine country. The view from the window of vineyards and hot air balloons floating overhead lifted my spirits from the morning. The fireplace was also great. Temperature control via air conditioning was a bit tricky, with low-frequency noise, but the fireplace stepped up to the plate instead. The spacious, pleasant bathroom was another favorite point. Lastly, having Bouchon Bakery bread delivered every morning is a privilege unique to staying near Yountville.

The room I stayed in was small—adequate for one person, but if there are two guests, it might be better to request a different room. Also, if there had been a small corner sofa in the back corner space, I think it would have been more comfortable for enjoying wine or breakfast.

We did not stay, but found the staff to be ready unhelpful we try to rearrange matches, and their approach felt somewhat intimidating. As a frequent traveler, that is not something I’m used to.

Breakfast was good and we requested some yoghurt as the standard breakfast only included pastries. They supplied this for both mornings with some fresh fruit which was great service. The Inn has been beautifully renovated to a very high standard. The fixtures and fittings, art, etc are of a high quality. The gardens are peaceful and beautiful with a view across to the vineyards. We didn't use the barn as there was not time, but this is a fabulous indoor/outdoor space to sit and listen to music and drink a glass of wine! The bathroom was of a good size and the shower size was excellent.

The room was a little small, but it didn't negatively impact our stay. The gym was OK, but could do with a few more pieces of equipment.
