Staying at Apellation Healdsburg

From the moment I stepped into the rooms touring Appellation Healdsburg, I was blown away. The accommodations are agrarian-inspired yet utterly modern. The bedrooms have a spacious layout with a luxury touch. Matouk linens, plush bathrobes, sandals, small-batch teas and organic coffee, even a complimentary bottle of local wine. Every moment invited me to slow down and soak in the scenery.

Some of the rooms back up vineyards. This is Sonoma County so soak it up and fall in love with this gorgeous new luxury hotel!

Another one of my favorite touches in the guest rooms were the home made cookies and beef jerky left as a treat for guests. Ernie even got her own version with a dog bed, bowl and dog treats welcoming her.

Being a dog-friendly hotel means that you can check in hassle free they provide a bed for the pup, bowls and even dog treats. Ernie loved this over the top bougy bed and her stay at Appellation Healdsburg.

My dog Ernestine was even able to enjoy the luxury along with me. Yup! Appellation Healdsburg is dog-friendly! So you don’t have to feel guilty about bringing your extended furry family with you. Check out more Luxury Dog-Friendly Sonoma Hotels here!

Dining at Appellation Healdsburg’s Follia Restaurant and Beeline Rooftop

Dining at Folia, Appellation’s signature restaurant, was an absolutely amazing experience! The lively energy of live-oak ember cooking, the aroma of house-milled flour pastas, roasted meats, and seafood-forward dishes. I also loved Andy’s Beeline Rooftop, especially during the golden hour. Sipping on cocktails infused with garden herbs while eating shareable bites with vineyard views made for moments I won’t forget.

During my first stay at Appellation Healdsburg I surprised my Mom visiting from Chicago with a girls staycation. She loved it and we had a fabulous dinner at Folia Restaurant which was spectacular. Speaking of Folia, learn more about them and the other Best Healdsburg Restaurants in my Guide here.
