Hotel Les Mars

"Usually it’s hotel guests who fill an on-site restaurant, but in the case of Les Mars, in the tiny Sonoma Valley town of Healdsburg, the 60-seat eatery Cyrus may be the point of entry. Diners checking in to one of the 16 guest rooms—all with a gas fireplace and a whirlpool—will find refreshingly unstuffy service and attention to detail. Les Mars embodies what’s possible when money is no object, from an average of 500 square feet per guest room, to 20-foot vaulted ceilings, to chocolate truffles and white roses at turndown, to top-of-the-line staff and consultants—including chef Douglas Keane (formerly of San Francisco’s Restaurant Gary Danko), and Ann Getty’s interior designer."
