Top Novato History Museum Hotel Reviews

Elm House Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Facilities were lovely and well kept, beds very comfortable, staff helpful and friendly. Best of all, though, was the gourmet breakfast served each morning and the delicious fresh-baked cookies every afternoon. It is in a small town, but don’t underestimate the quality of this inn. Enjoyed our stay very much."

Hotel Caza Fisherman´s Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in a convenient location close to the wharf. My room was a really nice size. The front desk staff were very helpful and nice. A huge lobby if you need to work before or after your check-in and check out time for a bit. I got an option that had a credit to use at the grab and go for breakfast which was very convenient. The pool was closed for refurbishment that was the only amenity that was not good. I would definitely stay here again."

Oxford Suites Sonoma County

"Muy buen hotel"
