"A midcentury-modern Calistoga property with a mineral spring–fed pool and a spa focused on mud treatments, it offers a recently renovated courtyard with bistro tables, lawn games, and a cocktail bar operating from a repurposed shipping container. The hotel displays colorful murals by local artists, retains vintage touches like clawfoot tubs and original brick, and—after renovations in 2019–2020—provides modern conveniences such as mini-fridges and electric kettles; accommodations range from small guest rooms to a five-bedroom 1924 Victorian that sleeps up to 15." - Matt Villano
