    A little gem within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants in Mill Valley. We started the day with a full, fresh, and delicious included breakfast. Our room looked out on redwoods and was clean and comfortable. Amenities for the bath were plentiful and of good quality. There is a 24-hour front desk with friendly staff and free parking on the premises. We will definitely stay there again when in Mill Valley.

    Great hotel right in the redwoods. Walks from the hotel into the woods is amazing! We did a day of just walking around in and out of the walking paths in the neighborhoods around the local area. Obviously you can walk right downtown too for a quick food comedy show across the street and shopping. The hotel room has everything situated nicely with good amount of furniture. Good space hooks in the bathroom for the towels, etc. staff was helpful and kind!

Nearby is a beautiful public library and playground in the middle of a redwood forest - great to walk through. Room was large (19) with high ceilings and large bathroom . Free continental breakfast served in the sunroom in the AM. Unfortunately we missed out on the wine and cheese hour. Would gladly stay again!

Everything in the room was spotless, comfortable and easy to operate. The breakfast buffet was great and offered healthy choices, as well as custom cappuccino and latte drinks. Wine and cheese in the evening was a great pre-dinner offering too. Innkeeper Shahla and Facilities Manager Phil went out of their way daily to make sure we were well cared for - what a treat to be welcomed like that! We will definitely be back on our next trip through the Bay Area.

    We really enjoyed our stay! I would have given a five star rating but there were a couple things that could be improved… A microwave in the room would have been wonderful. I would also have used a makeup mirror. The bed frame was squeaky. There was a hair in the bathtub. The heater was loud. On the other hand, the location was beautiful with a creek and the redwoods! The nearby park was beautiful. Our host was wonderful and even upgraded our room for us. The towels, robes and bedding were soft and the bed was super comfortable! Loved the soaps and bath salts. The food nearby was wonderful and breakfast at the inn was really good! Overall it was a relaxing few days away everyday life. Thank you!

    This is a very comfortable inn with a unique atmosphere. Visiting in November we were very nestled in among redwood trees and aspens which were partially in color. There was an open patio area for use in warmer weather for a very expansive breakfast buffet that included quiches, pastries, waffles and smoked salmon and bagels. It is located in town with easy access to restaurants, shops, art galleries and music.

    Great location in middle of downtown Mill Valley but would have preferred room not facing main street as noisy with traffic, particularly in AM. Breakfast was great with spacious dining facilities. Bed wasn't particularly comfortable and somewhat noisy air conditioning unit in our room. A good place to stay for one night in transition to wine country but not sure I would stay here again

    There are a couple of tables, a comfy chair to sit in by the window, and ample lighting. The bed was very comfortable. And the two bottles of Acqua Panna was a welcome touch. Certainly, the staff was a big part of the pleasure of staying there. From the housekeeping to the those who prepared the breakfasts and daily wine and cheese hour to the front desk staff, everyone was friendly, approachable, and very helpful. One more big plus: the Inn is a couple of minutes walking distance from the heart of town.

    As we are just beginning to open up, Covid affected our stay at this idyllic hotel. Rooms were not cleaned or towels changed during our stay. And our room was immediately above the lunch room. They worked super hard and were extremely pleasant, but we could hear them racing over our heads as they worked to individually deliver every breakfast to the guests. Once Covid restrictions lift, both these 'complaints' should disappear. Perfect location, lovely rooms, quiet, clean, friendly staff. Highly recommend.

    The location of this hotel is SO lovely! My husband and I borrowed the hotel's mountain bikes and rode to Sausalito. So lovely! The hotel os also located 1 block from a number of shops, restaurants, and beautiful outdoor spaces to sit and relax. It was only a 10-minute drive to a trail that put us on track to drop into the redwood forest. Don't expect a pool, hot tub, or lobby... Be prepared for the beautiful redwoods around you! We will DEFINITELY be back!

    We had no expectations for an early check-in, but we asked if we could park in the parking lot, as Mill Valley is so cute (and somewhat open during our COVIDness). The owner not only was very friendly, but he suggested we check-in at the same time as our room was already open! We loved it so much. It was gorgeous, and the staff very friendly and accomodating.
