I really wanted to love this place. There were rooms available last minute. We were able to get a two room suite for cheaper than two separate rooms at any of the other places in the area.The building was really beautiful and the rooms were cute. The staff we met were helpful and very nice. The room came with a couple free drinks and chocolates, which was a nice touch. The rooms, bathroom, and common areas were clean. The not so great stuff: The beds were uncomfortable. If noise bothers you, this is not the place to stay. One of the windows banged around with every gust of wind and did not block any sound out. We were able to stop the banging with a little piece of toilet paper. Also, the water pressure in the shower was very weak and there wasn't really anywhere to set stuff down near the sink, which was mostly bothersome because the toilet didn't have a lid, so if you set something it could easily fall into the toilet. Also, one of the reasons we chose this hotel was that it was supposed to have a restaurant, but it wasn't open during the hours indicated. The bar was also not open. The person at the front desk was really helpful though and suggested a couple places not far away. We didn't really see any other guests, so maybe we were there in the off season or something, but it would have been nice to know in advance.

Hidden Humboldt Gem!

Had an excellent stay here! The rooms are spacious and well decorated, staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and its located right off highway 101 with easy access to all of Humboldt County. Great for those who appreciate historic hotels and vintage vibes. Extra great if you happen to love Twin Peaks/David Lynch—very those vibes.

The food options are very limited, the coffee and muffins were not great. The Wonder bar was not open, the hallways were too dark but the restoration was so lovely and the staff was great ! I was overall so thankful they restored it, I wish I knew to bring my own wine and food

Very interesting and well restored older property. Currently no restaurant or food on site. Grocery just across the street. Easy drive to options in neighboring communities. Closest property to Humboldt Redwoods and amazing hiking. Be prepared for lots of stairs and no AC. Bed was comfortable. We booked a suite with two bedrooms and one bath in between. Not really suited for 4 adults, better for family with kids. Probably would have preferred two separate room but price was right. Overall, enjoyed our brief stay.

Wow, what a gem this place is! Absolutely gorgeous, friendly staff and great decor. It was nice to sip our coffee in the lovely lobby in the morning. Beautiful lawn covered in white flowers. Drove over to Fortuna for DELISH pizza at Paul's Live from NY. Fantastic pit stop on our NorCal drive!

Loved the history of the hotel! It is lovingly restored. Bed was comfy. Staff was wonderful!! Just a couple of suggestions, there was no hair dryer for the bathroom. The bathroom needed someplace to set things down and/or hang toiletry bag and towels. There was no A/C in the room, which was fine for this time of year, but room was a little stuffy so wanted to open the windows for some air circulation-there are no screens on the windows so I didn’t feel very safe doing so. Also at other times of the year could be quite buggy.

There isn't a great amount to do in this historical locale, but a short drive puts you in the redwoods or to some dining options. The grocery store across the street makes great fresh sandwiches. The rooms are unique, quiet, and well appointed. There was a very nice sitting area just outside the door of our room. The staff persons were all nice, accommodating, we enjoyed our arrival refreshment. If you want to stay in a peaceful, historic building, this lodge woorks well.

The inn is located just a few miles North of Humboldt Woods - a great place to start from. The property was nicely refurbished in styles from the 1920's. Our stay was a nice change of pace from modern hotels. Everything was in perfect condition. We were disappointed that the restaurant and bar had been closed, but there are plenty of restaurants 15 minutes away by car.

This is a really beautiful hotel, set in stunning scenery. The interior is really carefully thought out and designed for entertainment. Unfortunately it was very quiet during our stay (Tuesday-Thursday) so I hope it’s just because it was mid-week and early in the season. The main disappointment was that there was no food offering in the hotel. The restaurant opens Friday and Saturday, but this isn’t made clear on the website. We had to go out for food, which was ok but after a long drive we had hoped we could just kick back in the hotel. There is a grocery store opposite the hotel, which has a good deli counter and you can also buy hot coffee from there.

Friendly staff and quick check in. Free drinks was great, but to get food was 7 miles away. The market across the street was already close when we got there. No table in the rooms to sit and eat. No counter in the bathroom for our toiletries. This hotel is over 100 years old. It’s different from our typical hotels.
