National Exchange Hotel

We were in room 213 which is a really nice and spacious king suite over the hotel lobby. There aren't any bedrooms sharing a side wall with the room, but it does share a wall with the upstairs bar area and the common bathrooms. Pros: Spacious room with seating area with a couch and two nice chairs. Mini fridge, water kettle, 2 coffee cups and 2 water glasses. Huge shower with rain showerhead. Bed was quite cozy. AC worked well to quell the noise from the town at night. Dog friendly. Front desk was amazingly helpful. The downstairs restaurant has great food and craft cocktails. Veranda was a really nice feature. It was a great place for us to enjoy coffee or let the dogs out for some fresh air. Morning coffee & muffins in upstairs bar. Free parking. $10/day/credit for food Cons: No elevator. No room service or other 'resort like' amentities to justify the resort fee. No towels for the dogs, blankets, bowls, etc. Quiet time begins at 11PM and the upstairs bar area can be noisy until this time. Soundproof doors between the upstairs bar and the hallway that leads to our bedroom hallway would be great. Bar across the street closes at 2AM and was loud. Central vernada is accessible to ANYONE entering from the upstairs bar (hotel guests or not) Our first night, people sat out there talking loudly until about 10:45PM. Floors didn't feel clean. Veranda was a bit dusty and could use a hosing down or at least a sweep. In all a really nice place, but wish our room was a bit quieter.

Loved the whole experience the room was clean comfortable. The hotel has live music at the weekend and voucher to use in the hotel bar or restaurant

It is beautifully restored.

Polyester sheets that don’t stay on the bed. Super uncomfortable 🥴

If you're looking for lodging in a beautiful, old, historic hotel this one is hard to beat. Yes, it has small rooms and lacks some of the amenities of a modern hotel, but the charm and the quality of the hotel's preservation makes up for any shortcomings. The only downside was our experience in the bar facility downstairs. We dropped in for a drink and light meal in the early evening and found the place crowded. After waiting several minutes to even be acknowledged, we left. Poor service. Fortunately, the rest of the hotel and the breakfast in the dining room the next day was most enjoyable.

The hotel was charming and full of character which was wanted. It didn’t dissappoint from a comfort level either. The bed and pillows were so comfortable we had amazing sleep. The location of this hotel is perfection. You never have to drive unless you want to check out the state parks. Restaurants and bars and shops are steps from the main entrance.

Everyone at the National exchange was lovely. My wife and I went for our 10 year anniversary and they went above and beyond to make us feel special. My only regret was that I wasn't able to spend more time there.

Nice hotel in Nevada City, stayed here to celebrate our 48 year anniversary. Bar & restaurant drinks & food is outstanding.

We had such a nice stay at this hotel. The location is great - sitting on the balcony at day's end with a cocktail from the excellent bartenders was a treat. The renovation of this property was done to perfection, and it is beautiful. All of the staff were helpful and attentive. The bed was comfy, the huge shower with tons of hot water was great, and the food was great. Bartenders and waitstaff get a huge shout-out for great service!
