Lodi Hill House

The house is beautiful, historical and comfortable. It had everything we need for a perfect overnight.

Everything was perfect.

Jane was great! Met me at check in, very friendly. Hill House has great period features, comfy beds, and great coffee. Can't beat the location and price. Lodi is lucky to have the Hill House in its city.

I liked it all!

This is a true gem, my third stay and first on the ground floor (large, spacious room with vaulted ceilings, quiet). I love older, restored properties and this one is a classic.

Parking is tricky — you’re either on the street or behind the gate in a very narrow place. But I just park on the street.

Lodi Hill House is exactly the kind of place travelers hope to find but rarely do. If you value character, history, comfort, and genuine hospitality over anonymous chain-hotel sameness, book here. Jane is an outstanding host. Her knowledge of the home and the wider history of the family and Lodi was fascinating, and she was incredibly accommodating throughout our stay. She warmly engaged with all of our questions and curiosity, which made the experience feel personal and memorable. Our room was comfortable, the bed was excellent, and sharing a bathroom was absolutely no issue at all. Everything felt easy and well-managed. We especially loved relaxing on the porch in the rocking chairs, sipping chilled wine in the evening—a perfect way to unwind. For travelers planning a visit, the location is ideal: it’s an easy walk to downtown Lodi for restaurants, tasting rooms, and wineries. The neighborhood felt safe, pleasant, and comfortably walkable at night. A note for future guests: this is a lovingly preserved historic home, not a generic new-build or modernised hotel. That is exactly its charm. Jane is doing tremendous work conserving the property and protecting its original character. Expect authenticity, warmth, and a sense of place rather than sterility—and you’ll appreciate it all the more. We genuinely wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Lodi, if we’re lucky enough to return someday.

This is an historical house from the early 1900's. The ceilings are high like the home I grew up in. Many of the furnishings are original. The maintenance of house and furnishings is for the most part excellent. It is not specifically a bed and breakfast, but there is a full kitchen to prepare meals. The kitchen has a gas range similar to what my grandmother had, in perfect working order. The location is a short drive or a 15 minute walk to the Lodi center, which has an abundance of restaurants. The hostess is congenial, helpful, and lives next door in case a person needs anything.

Generally no complaints, though if I were forced into a corner and made to come up with something I would hope for a more comfortable couch in the living room. Leather upholstery would match the surroundings. The takeaway is that there is a living room, adjoining the dining room.

I loved the old book cases, the hand made furniture throughout the home, the staircase, and luxurious wood carvings in each doorway and entry way. It’s a lovely vintage home. We felt like we went back in time to the early 1900’s.

A bit too cold upstairs; unable to change the air conditioner temperature
