Holbrooke Hotel

This Gold Rush-era Boutique Hotel Is California’s Oldest Stay - Hotels Above Par - Boutique Hotels & Travel

"Established in 1862 and designated a California State Landmark, this authentically renovated boutique hotel blends modern comforts with rustic, Gold Rush–era charm. Wild West and Victorian motifs—stag-head decor, cowhide rugs, copper accents and vintage black-and-white photographs—sit alongside original artifacts like an iron cash register and an 1898 guestbook, while contemporary touches such as gold-accented fixtures, exposed brick, white-painted walls and leather-tufted bed platforms update the rooms. The property offers 17 main-house guestrooms (with front-facing rooms that receive ample natural light and private balconies) as well as an adjacent carriage-stable annex, and provides typical boutique amenities including an on-site restaurant and bar, free parking and free Wi-Fi."
