Miguel put on a beautiful wine and cheese presentation. He was very professional and knowledgeable about the wines and a gracious host. We also enjoyed the expansive variety of delicious breakfast foods. I’m also a big fan of Pete’s coffee. 😊. I happen to be born on April 1, 1966 in Berkeley, the actual time and place Pete’s opened.

Location was excellent. We walked everywhere. The hotel layout is a bit cut up with its stairs as the most efficient way to get to the room or breakfast. Otherwise a lovely property to stay in the heart of Mill Valley.

Very easy check in process. Rooms have everything you need. Cheese and wine hour was a perfect addition to our stay. The front desk makes reservations to the local Italian restaurant, which was delicious. The continental breakfast had a large array of options! Beautiful hotel within the redwoods of Mill Valley!
