Guest Reviews
- Joyce (10/5): - Bradford Place Inn is a unique B&B with Victorian era architecture from the Gold Rush period. What made this B&B so special was its owner/host Kim with her gracious hospitality and delicious homemade breakfasts. It’s just one block off Main Street Sonora and an easy walk to shops and restaurants. A great location for exploring beautiful N.California.
- Ray (10/5): - Beautiful house and the kindest host you can ever imagine. Everything is above and beyond expectations. Kim is a role model. I can see the time, that guests will be in a long waiting list just to book a room in this beautiful house. 🥂❤️
- Brian (10/5): - Comfortable, quiet, clean, easy walk to downtown, great breakfast, friendly host
- Damien (10/5): - Our host, Kim, was exceptional and kind and the hospitality was superb!
- JIM (10/5): - The owner Kim was so great, she made the best poppyseed lemon scones! She was so helpful with restaurant choices and other info about the area. We went for our anniversary; Kim made us a card. I would highly recommend this inn.
- Ryan (10/5): 2 night - Stayed for 2 nights, delightful host and great breakfast
- Diana L. (10/5): Most wonderful B & B ! Loved it - Eric and I (plus fur kids) had an amazing stay for his birthday get-away at Bradford Place Inn. So happy that we found this place! Kimberly is incredible and the most kind host, ever. The breakfasts she thoughtfully prepared were so delicious! The Inn is beautiful. Perfect location. Our room was immaculate , comfortable and quiet as well. Everything you need is there. We stayed during very stormy weather and had tons of options for staying indoors if you wanted to (fun games, cards, books, movies, cocoa, coffee, etc.) We certainly will return there sooner than later. We can not thank Kimberly enough for such a lovely stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect B & B in Sonora - Absolutely the most amazing bed and breakfast experience we’ve ever encountered. Breakfast and breakfast dessert are a wonderful start to any day in this darling town at the doorstep of Yosemite. Very sweet owner, she will make sure your stay is perfect!
- Lawrence (10/5): - Kim is an excellent hostess, great breakfaster starters, when we are in this area, this is where we will be going. I can't say enough good things about this experience.

- sean (10/5): - We loved the Yosemite room. Classic style with updated amenities. The outside patio was lovely and we enjoyed our breakfast sitting outside.
- Salima (10/5): - The house itself is a charmer. But what made this experience exceptional was the owner, Kim. She greeted us with the warmest welcome. I felt her sincerity and enthusiasm for making us feel at home and have our needs met. We had two nights here and the breakfasts were not only delicious and filling, but artfully presented. The coffee was fresh ground and brewed. Many thoughtful and special touches. All in all, we look forward to being with Kim again.
- Gail (10/5): Best Bed & Breakfast !!! - We have stayed here before so we knew how nice it is. Kim, the innkeeper, is so nice and serves the best breakfast each day. This was our second time at the Bradford Place Inn and Gardens in Sonora. We plan to return very soon.
- Gail (10/5): - It is a beautiful old home. Never stayed in a B & B before. Our room was spacious and clean. We stayed 2 nights and was served a delicious breakfast each morning. I will be coming back here. Walking distance to downtown Sonora.
- Eileen (10/5): - Everything was comfortable and lovely. Definitely would stay again when in Gold Country. The Inn is only a street away from downtown which was great after a day of driving and walking to see the sites. The owner was always helpful and shared her knowledge of the area.
- Anita (10/5): - Excellent place to stay in Sonora. Room was clean, linens high quality, our hostess was friendly, courteous and made us the best breakfast. Would recommend if you want to be pampered! Beautiful grounds also and close walk to main shopping district

- Verified traveler (10/5): - Our hosts, Kim and Patrick went out of their way to make us comfortable during our stay. They are both so warm and welcoming we felt at ease right away.

My husband loved Patrick’s Eggs Benedict with salmon! Breakfasts were delicious
- Sandra (10/5): - Bradford
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had a lovely evening at the Inn. The room was small, but adorable and had all we needed. The breakfast was delicious and we had several options to choose among. Patrick and Kimberly were very friendly and helpful in making suggestions for restaurants and hiking areas. The inn is just a short block off the main street.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Historical. Very close to active main street shopping & restaurant vibe.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We liked the privacy from the detached room. However, we did not like that the bed was on wheels. It was constantly moving with the tiniest nudge.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great little Bed & Breakfast in Sonora. Had all the comforts of home and more. We especially loved our private outside seating area where we were able to enjoy our delicious breakfast, Eggs Benedict, potatoes, and bacon.
- Christine (10/5): - We love this place and return annually. Great value.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Comfort and Warming! - A lively Victorian bed and breakfast! The old charm with updated plumbing. Comfortable bedding, plus being served a tasty breakfast with delicious coffee! A picturesque garden to sit outside and enjoy the blooming flowers too!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very nice and delicious breakfast - This was the best bed and breakfast I have ever stayed in. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious. I highly recommend it.
- Katie (10/5): Loved it! - I had never done a Bed and Breakfast before and with Covid-19 we were super nervous. We caught Kim at the door when checking in and she was so sweet and had this cheerful energy, like she was genuinely glad to have us. She made sure to get her mask and you can tell they make sure they take precautions. We had the Prospector room which had its own entry and two beautiful double doors that open onto your own patio. The towels, sheets, and robes actually smell clean and they are amazing quality! The sheets are so soft! The bed is super comfy too! The room is cozy and the whole place was beautiful and just had a relaxing feel to it. Our breakfast was sooo good!
- Melanie (10/5): 5 Stars! - We stayed here for our anniversary and loved it! Even though it was in town it was really nice and quiet. The owners were such a sweet couple! Great food, service and value, we’d definitely stay here again!
- Sabine (10/5): Beautiful place to stay. - What a beautiful place to stay. It’s right off the Main Street through old town Sonora. Patrick, and Kim were wonderful host. I can’t wait until I can go again. The amenities were great. The hot breakfast was really good too!
- Tim (10/5): Awesome - Great place to stay. Walk to everything. Ownership is awesome. Friendly. Nice. Will come back. Just a great stay.
- Noah (10/5): Amazing!! - Property owners were awesome! Very nice people and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Beautiful home as well and very well maintained grounds.
- paul (10/5): Couples Retreat - This is definitely a couples retreat. The new owners are amazing. They made us feel welcomed and comfortable lounging around the common area. Breakfast was amazing. Definitely fills you up. My husband and I went for our anniversary and they brought us a surprise dessert that night. We plan on going back the next chance we get! It’s also there in the downtown area. Location is perfect.
- remi (10/5): Stay here! - Can I live here? My stay at the Bradford inn was perfection. It had the perfect combination of quaint coziness and modern comfort, and the owners are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. I felt at home the second I walked in. You also can’t beat the location - right off the main street but far enough not to be bothered by traffic noises. There are tons of places to eat and shop within a couple minutes walk. This place gets my highest recommendation!
- Narbeh (10/5): Wonderful place, wonderful people - The location is very convenient and close to the center of the town. The house is very clean. And the staff or the owners are extremely friendly, professional and kind. We are already thinking about going back when we are in the area in two months.
- Lisa (10/5): - Quaint, accommodating and friendly! The host were knowledgeable and very welcoming
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Kim and Patrick were so friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious and it seemed that everything we needed was there in the room. My husband and I will come back the next time we visit.
- Rhadiante (10/5): - Beautiful room that was wonderfully comfortable for a family of three. Breakfast was delicious and Our hosts, Kim and Patrick were very helpful and kind. We will stay there again next time we are in Sonora.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great hospitality and a cute room. Loved the private garden our room had.
- FreddyC (10/5): - This property is very historic, walking distance to the downtown, and wonderfully managed by Kim and Patrick. We felt very appreciated and breakfast was a special treat.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This is such a charming place to stay. It’s only one block from Old Town Sonora’s Main Street, which has great restaurants and shops. The breakfast was terrific. The owners are very nice and accommodating. The historical house has beautiful architecture. The rooms are very clean and cozy. Will definitely stay there again 😃
- Heather (10/5): Great stay - It was an amazing night at a great place that will never forget. The room was beautiful and the made to order breakfast was so delicious. I would definitely stay there again! It was such a close walk to the Main Street, but far enough to be out of the business of the Main Street too.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Our stay was exceptional. The hospitality shown was excellent. We will definitely stay there again
- J&Z (10/5): - Kim & Patrick were exceptional hosts, ensuring we were comfortable & well taken care of from the moment we arrived until the moment we left to begin our journey home. They maintained the perfect balance between being always available to respond to our requests, while at the same time, allowing us privacy so we could relax in the communal space of the B&B. Each morning they prepared a sumptuous breakfast to start us off on our day of exploring Sonora and the surrounding towns. We highly recommend staying at this B&B and plan to return the next time we are in the area.
- Ken (10/5): Romantic retreat - This is the ultimate place for a couple. The decor is great, the room was perfect, and the hosts treated us like family. They even brought a delicious breakfast to us in our own private patio! This is a must place to visit.
- AOS (10/5): - Very well kept. Comfy and cozy room and bed. Loved breakfast.
- Diane (10/5): Best B&B ever! - Our sty was amazing. Owners Patrick and Kim went out of their way to make feel welcome and comfortable. The Inn was gorgeous, cozy and clean. We will be back.....best B&B we have ever stayed at!
- Nora (8/5): - The hosts were eager to please and made a wonderful breakfast. The room and bed were very comfortable. The only negative was the availability of hot water. The hot tub was warm but I couldn’t get it HOT. The temperature also fluctuated during my husband’s shower. The old home was very charming though and I would recommend it!
- JC (10/5): - The hosts (Kim and Patrick) are very nice, interesting people who will do all they can to insure a pleasant experience. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast each morning was outstanding.
- Steven (10/5): - Clean and maintained in excellent condition. Well-furnished and comfortable. Wonderful breakfast. The couple who have only run the B&B for a few months are delightful folks, smiling and friendly and ready to help guests out.
- Anthony (10/5): - My girlfriend and I stayed here for two nights whilst visiting Yosemite. Great location, and a great place to stay. It has everything you need for a few nights if you’re passing through. It was clean, comfortable and very inviting. Breakfast was great and complimentary food and drinks were a really nice addition. Couldn’t have asked for two nicer and more helpful hosts either. Would 100% recommend and would definitely stay there again. Well worth the money, Thanks for having us.
- Vicky (10/5): - Great location in Sonora. Hosts were friendly and enthusiastic. We couldn't stay for breakfast because we had to be somewhere and they offered to make us a "to go" breakfast. Lovely couple!
- Heidi (10/5): Wonderful B and B - We had a lovely 2 night stay at the Bradford Place Inn. The hosts Patrick and Kim were superb! They could not have done any more for us. The food was awesome and the home was very comfortable. We would love to stay there again and highly recommend!
- Mark (10/5): A must-stay! - Really great place with exceptionally wonderful hosts. Delicious breakfast, right in the heart of Sonora but very tranquil. A must-stay!
- Todd (10/5): Gold country gem - We are a family of 3, and we wanted to explore the area during a long weekend. All we really needed was a cool, clean place to sleep, but the Bradford Place Inn was so much more. The hosts were very welcoming and provided a lot of extras you don't normally get, such as books, movies and board games. The location is very convenient to downtown Sonora. The crown jewel of our stay was the amazing breakfast, made to order and incredibly delicious.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice charm great owners and I have to include a few more words so nice
- Michelle (10/5): We’d Stay at Bradford Place again! - Before we arrived, the new owners called us to get our breakfast preferences for the next morning. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival, given snacks and instructions and shown to our rooms to rest before we went out for dinner. We stayed 2 nights and we’re glad we did. Beautiful place and people. Thanks! Best of everything to you and your beautiful family.

- Verified traveler (8/5): - The owners were extremely friendly and the morning breakfast was wonderful. The location was excellent for visiting the Sonora downtown. Onsite parking was appreciated. The air conditioning could have worked a little better but the room was very quiet with its own bathroom.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The couple who run the property are so sweet and accommodating. Our stay was very relaxing. The breakfast was amazing! Highly recommend staying here
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had the "Bradford Suite" for a visit with our 6-year old granddaughter, and it was delightful. My wife and I slept great on the comfy king-size bed, and the fold-out couch worked fine for the little girl. She loved the clawfoot bathtub in the main room, and the separate shower stall in the bathroom gave us privacy. Patrick and Kim, the new owners, went out of their way to make us feel at home, and we'd love to book another visit in the future. Highly recommended.
