Boonville Hotel

The Boonville Hotel  is an incredible spot in Anderson Valley where guests can find kind staff, great food and the cutest hotel rooms. Each hotel room is individually unique and there are many options from a cottage style to a standard hotel room. One of the highlights for me is the outdoor bathtub where you are immersed in nature, talk about ultimate relaxation! I also adore this region of California and highly recommend it for off the beaten wine tasting as well.
